Welcome to day 23 of Tag Sale Tastes’ Pumpkinpalooza 2020!

Today we are nibbling on a Pumpkin Pie Larabar:

The bright orange wrapper and a few fall leaves indicate this is a seasonal product.

This bar is a “magical harmony of fruits, nuts and spices that will lift your vitality and provide energy with every bite.”The ingredient list contains pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and ginger — impressive pumpkin spice line up — along with dates, cashews, apples, and almonds.  It’s a virtuous little thing, isn’t it?Ready for the unveiling?The little bar is quite a bit smaller than the packaging suggests.  I like that you can see so many of the ingredients. The color is quite pumpkin-y, and the spices are present and accounted for.  I liked this tasty, chewy diminutive bar.  But I didn’t feel worthy of it.  This is pretty much predigested trail mix, for people who don’t have time to stop and chew their food — you know, like athletes.  For me to really enjoy this 200-calorie bar I’d have to be doing something other than sitting at my desk (or on my couch), i.e., something that requires fuel.
