		<description>Hi Lawrence.

The reason I created my bar was because I competitively swam, and I thought Power Bars were the worst thing to put in my mouth in terms of taste.  I wanted people to know what they were eating before purchasing. Simple and basic ingredients can have the same nutrition as all the crap they put in power bars.

The Vermont market is different than any other market in the country in my mind.  They could care less about fancy packaging, and my bars are selling as I slowly but surely get my name out there. I&#039;m proud of my product and will gladly show it to people, and not hide it behind packaging because it tastes like a brick.

Thank you though for your input, however.</description>

		<description>hey michael

i eat energy/health bars every-so-often. i nearly ate every single major one, but for sustained energy/stamina: my vote goes to &quot;powerbar&quot;, by far. it really is &#039;sustained&#039; energy, and not like  just a burst like what most others provide

lol - the foodbar you show on your site...i think it&#039;d appear overall better if there&#039;s a wrapper/marketing on it. it&#039;s not really appetizing to look at anyways - food/energy bars in general. 

good luck</description>

		<description>Hey Michael,

Glad that you liked the post! You can definitely build a strong and large base for your energy bar -- just keep on adding value to the community, always. Keep at it! :)</description>

		<description>Hi David,

Great post here.  I really agree with you, and I am just now thinking that I need a bigger base for my energy bar company and I am coming up with multiple ways I can do that now.

Thanks for the reminder!</description>
