$0.25 granola bars!

I always get hungry when I hike. Perhaps that is because the average person burns 408 calories per hour when they hike!

Here’s a way I satisfy my hunger on the trail… Nature Valley Granola bars. My favorite flavors are Oats & Honey, and Crunchy Peanut Butter. Yum!

They’re currently on sale for $0.25 each! That compares to over a $1 each for many popular bars.

Granola bars don’t melt like some chocolate based bars, and they are very convenient to take along on a hike!

Happy hiking and snacking!
