I eat a lot of Cliff bars, I enjoy them but these were stale. I found the expiration date was August 2005 but I ordered these in October 2005. I called customer service and they said I need to ship these back so I could get a refund ... not worth the 10 bucks. With the price increase I can get these cheaper at my local store a safer bet.
 I like this flavor but the bars were months past expiration December 4, 2005

This rating is for Amazon sending me bars that were months past their expiration date. I have had this flavor (Spiced Pumpkin Pie) of Clif Bars before and I like it. However the bars I received from Amazon were dry, and the icing was yellow from age. The other flavor I ordered, Cranberry Apple Cherry, was fresh and as good as getting it from a grocery store. But I wish quality control at Amazon would make it so they do not send expired food to customers.

My guess is that many of you interested in trying a box of Clif Bars are confused and wary due to the intensely polarized nature of the reviews you've been reading on the internet. I'm going to try to offer a little more nuanced insight and hopefully can help you decide if you'd like them or not.
Let me start by saying that I think Clif Bars are pretty delicious. I will also admit, however, that I am not very good to my tastebuds. I stay far away from pretty much all high glycemic carbs (sugary food) and saturated fats (savory food). So my daily Clif Bar is pretty much the only sweet treat my tummy gets. Having said that, let's determine in which camp you're likely to find yourself. I'm going to go ahead and say that most of the people complaining to the effect that Clif Bars don't taste so hot or have a gross composition would be more comfortable with a box of doughnuts. And I don't think very highly of the oft-repeated criticism that Clif Bars look gross. Who really gives what the thing looks like? Bust out some cake icing and decorate it if you can't get over the appearance; or close your eyes, or just go back to the recliner in front of the tv and spare us the agony of having to listen to you react to trying new things.
A common complaint that I will agree with is that Clif Bar flavors can be kind of same-y. That's not to say that they don't taste good, but if you're planning on buying them in bulk and testing out a few different flavors, spread out your choices among the flavor spectrum. Contrary to what you think, you will not find yourself reveling in the subtle nuances among the chocolate flavors. Here's a recommendation breakdown, assuming you're picking no more than one flavor from each of the following groups:
-As far as chocolate flavors go, Chocolate Almond Fudge and Cool Mint Chocolate are the best choices.
Stay AWAY from Chocolate Brownie. It tastes (ok, ok, and looks) like a serving of coconut oil-soaked asphalt.
-For fruit flavors, I'd recommend Black Cherry Almond, but you won't go wrong with Lemon Poppyseed or Cranberry Apple Cherry either.
-Most of the "specialized flavors" have enough effort put into them to stand out on their own even against each other. I'm basically referring to Carrot Cake and Pumpkin Pie. They are both ridiculously tasty. Go for it.
-If you're feeling boring, and you don't mind the fact that you can get a similar product from virtually any health food company, Peanut Butter is a pretty reliable standby. I get it just so that I have something to measure the more experimental flavors against. Same with Oatmeal Raisin Walnut...good for reminding you that the other flavors are spoiling you. There's nothing wrong with Chocolate Chip either, but really, what's the point of even getting a Clif Bar if you're that conservative?
So, to wrap it up: If you're a decadent eater, and can admit it to yourself, you're better off just staying away from nutrition bars. The only ones that are going to cut it for you are going to be the ones that aren't too nutritious at all. As far as actually somewhat healthy ones go though, Clif Bar tastes the best. If you appreciate healthy and unadorned food in it's own right, Clif Bars will be your new favorite snack.

These arent like other "energy bars" They are made with oats and grains, and they are delicious. They are very convenient to carry in your gym bag, coat pocket , or in a desk drawer. Perfect for someone like me that doesnt eat breakfast much. High n fiber too.Carrot Cake is my favorite. I was happy to discover the "Pumpkin pie" flavor in the seasonal isle at the health food store...lol. Very good.Highly recommend then.
