taste test
i'm taking swim fitness again this summer, which pretty much consists of swimming laps for an hour. ooh, today is butterfly stroke improvement day. (read: nearly drowning day.) i get hungry before class, and i can't eat dinner, b/c it's too early and i'd throw up in the pool. (big party foul.) so i've been making myself eat energy bar type things. not too heavy that i feel like a lump, but enough energy and nutrition to keep me going through a long, intense workout. i'm going to post my impressions of them here. cuz i gots nuttin else to talk about.

today: odwalla bar, chocolate (antioxidant!) flavor

i find this bar to be kind ok, a 5 on a scale from 1-10, if you will. the chocolate flavor is pleasant, and i'm not even that big of a chocolate fan. the texture is okay -- there are lots of krispies inside, and the chocolate isn't all slathered on top. but krispies feel kinda soggy and i don't like the way they seem to stick in my teeth, kinda like chewing soggy popcorn kernes.

ahh, the perennial quest for the perfect energy bar ...
