Just saw this, they look good. I may have to make some for the kids…and maybe sample one, or some…

No worries, just wanted to give Katie some credit where credit is due. She’s made so many of these recipes and is putting together a cookbook (which will be awesome – so many of hers are Paleo-friendly)! I’m a big fan of y’all so thought you’d want to know!

Traci, thanks for the note. I’ve seen a million iterations of this recipe on the web since Aimee first made these for us. Sometimes, the “original” source is difficult to determine, so thank you for the correction. We meant no disrespect to Katie.

Best,
Melissa

Hey guys, Katie of Chocolate-Covered Katie is actually the author/creator of the original Fudge Baby recipe. It’s understandable that Aimee would want to repost it, as it is delicious and paleo, but please link back to Katie’s original post instead. She first posted the recipe in 2009.

Julie,

Welcome to the Whole9 “family”! We’ve got a TON of articles in our “9 Blog”, so poke around and see if you can find anything else worth laughing out loud about…

Okay, 1) I know this is an old post and 2) I am brand new to this site (just found it today, where the hell have I been??) but this comment:

“For the record, Dallas and I only had three apiece. For the other record, we are notoriously bad counters.”

made me laugh out loud. Between this and all the other solid advice I’ve seen here so far, I think I’m sticking around. I have a lot to learn still and I’m getting a brand new flash of inspiration here.

PS – I believe that you two are actually really fun!

The habit part makes so much sense to me after 3 weeks of Paleo….I just don’t think to grab crap food anymore. It’s eggs or chicken or tuna and lots of veggies/fruit. I honestly feel a difference and my workouts have been better. And I’ve lost 4 pounds

@Katie,

It’s going to be a bit different for everyone. For clarification, Larabars meet the food criteria as outlined for the W30 program (they’re unprocessed, raw, just fruit and nuts), but they’re certainly not an ideal food choice. “Okay” means they’re acceptable in a pinch, but don’t make them a staple of your diet.

Larabars don’t really do it for me, so in my brain they’ve never been a treat. I just think of them as something high-ish quality to snack on when I can’t get better “real” food. I had no issue including them in my Whole30 program, because they didn’t trigger any cravings. However, if you’re having a mental issue with craving sweets and using Larabars as an “approved” sub, then yep, I’d take them right out for the 30 day program.

The Whole30 is as much about changing your habits, patterns and behaviors as it is changing the food that you eat. Good for you for paying attention to how certain foods make you FEEL, and taking the necessary steps to change those long-standing habits. That’s exactly what we’d WANT you to do!

Best,

Melissa

I can completely see why you would classify these as candy. I saw in a different post that Melissa said lara bars are ok….then I found myself eating a couple a day. Melissa, I probably shouldn’t be eating those in the first 30 days?

Thanks and thanks for all the great info!
