~ question:
I was at a double-century cycling event this weekend, and a rival noticed that I was packing Larabars into my kit. He informed me that the Larabars are engineered for the body of a woman (I am a male). Afraid of the effects that the bars would have on my body during the ride, I tossed the bars onto the nearest food table and rode away hungry. Are there adverse effects on the male physiology caused by a Larabar?
answer:
Dear Valued Consumer:

i can only assume that the ‘rival’ was you since you used to tell me that eating luna bars was going to make me ‘grow tits.’

luna bars are for women! it says so on the package. despite the fem name, lära’s bars are ok for everyone; maybe she should have a line of masculine-named ‘chrisbars’ or ‘ashleybars’ to reassure insecure males.

Read the ingredients. I’m pretty sure cashews, walnuts and fruit are digestible by the male body. In fact, unless it’s a birth control pill or poison, guys can eat pretty much anything and survive.

@jt: is that why you ate only the masculine-named ‘clif’ bars on the tour du wrk.grp? you were afraid the guys from saxo bank would call you a mary. a tip: peanut butter lärabars blow the clif version away.
