Warning!

Okay, a word of warning, I'm going to get a little graphic with . . .well I'm hoping you can draw a conclusion by just looking at the photo I've posted.

Let me start off with taking the first step in admitting that I am addicted, but you would be to if you tried them. It's funny how addictions work (flaxen cord and all). At my family camp out Michelle gave me a bite (my first fix as I like to think of it) and I didn't think much about it, other than 'hmm, tasty'. But so are all chocolate granola bars. Three months later, convenience brought me to buy these bars. I usually go for power bars or cliff bars to snack on after a dance class, but I had a coupon and they were conveniently in the Wal-Mart isle I was on. But I guess I'm not the only sucker for these bars. I googled Fiber One and the first link I clicked on had at least twenty people commenting on how much they love these bars. I had to vehemently agree and nod my head at the computer when I read a girl commenting that these bars are her new form of crack. Not that crack was ever my first form of crack - but still. And about ten of those twenty had the similar discomforting results and yet continue to subject their systems to such tasty torture. Let's just say that I didn't even really know much about fiber, nor about adding fiber slowly to your diet. I thought fiber was something that only old people had to worry about eating, like prunes (which I love as well). I still don't quite know why I need it, especially if my body seems to reject it when I gord it (hah). Let me just say that I messed with a perfect system - my digestive system was happy with what I was putting through it before Fiber One came along. But, I guess it's not as perfect as I thought. Even the wrapper of the Fiber One bar helps me presume that I need to add fiber to my diet. So, they either have an amazing marketing department, or my Mother is right - that I don't eat well or nutritious enough. I guess the trick is adding fiber slowly to my diet, but the only way I now want to add fiber is through Fiber One - and adding slowly isn't an option when people like me have no self-control with tasty, yummy, deliciousie -o-so treats.

So I suggest Fiber One with caution and moderation, unless you like to come close to explosion and literally see your abdomen bubble and jerk precariously every few seconds.
