granola bar
Chewy trail treat
A granola bar is a snack food made from pressed oats, nuts, honey, and other ingredients, shaped into a rectangular bar.
Some are chewy, others crunchy and coated in chocolate.
Marketed as healthy or convenient, they range from genuinely nutritious to glorified candy bars: I grabbed a granola bar on my way out the door.
