Review of 'Clif Bar' Pecan Pie

Clif Bar -- Pecan Pie (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4/5
Summary: this was somewhat 'pecan pie' flavour, but really could have used more sugary pecan bits (which were great!). It is overall very tasty; very sweet and filling, just like most of the Clif Bars I've bought. Would be better if the soy-based ingredients were all organic, but fully appreciate that 70% of the ingredients are organic. Unfortunately, this is a seasonal flavour and really difficult to find outside of the Christmas season. Happy hunting!

Where to buy: Bulk Barn, Fortinos, Shopper's Drug Mart
