I was entranced by Grizzly Bars in our travels to the National Parks and Jackson.
Think of a crispy rice and oat bar, with peanut butter and chocolate, and dried fruits such as banana and apricot. Held together with a rice syrup. All organic. No preservatives. From what I read online, it is the brain child of a woman who got tired of waiting in the long lunch lines in Teton after skiing on the trails and feeling starved while coming down the slopes.
While I don't ski, they are unbelievably yummy, chewy, and not candy-store sweet. It is the breakfast I can only dream of having. I bought a ton and handled them gingerly on the way back in my carry-on luggage. Their shelf life is only about 30 days, so I've frozen my extra to bring out and thaw on worthy occasions.
They are only available at about 9 stores in and around Jackson, or online. Once my stash runs out, I will be willing to pay exorbitant shipping fees. Visit here if you want to learn more about them (or share in a shipment): http://www.trambars.com

Tram Bars (aka Grizzly Bars) were in all actuality originated to continue skiing without stopping!! The stops were in Tram line, lunch was in Tram line, or on a chair lift up. Tram Bars leave us satisfied, unlike other foods, and leave us only wanting another bar in our pocket for later.
They actually are not made with rice syrup, but with organic dark honey. There are some non-organic ingredients in them . . . the rice nugs, and the milk chocolate (Guittard). Someday though, they will be all organic!
Your blog made my day! thanks! Kate Schade
