But regarding the "phytonadione" question; I've found out that phytonadione is a lab-synthesized form of vitamin K. (I love these 'contests' 'cause they force me to relearn the scientific names of all the vitamins! :p) This form is used in Luna bars, and also fed to elephants in captivity, apparently. (http://elephantcare.org/Drugs/phytona.htm) Weird. But onto your question -- while it would be hard to find phytonadione in a grocery store, I would head straight to the fruits and veggies section if I wanted super-bioavailable vitamin K!! Leafy greens such as spinach and kale are great sources, as are avocados and kiwifruits. Parsley is also an excellent source (http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=100), making Passover a great time to load up on this vitamin. :) And on that note...Chag Sameach, Meghan. And thank you so much for the granola -- it arrived today and it is YUMMY! As for the mystery product — it seems as though many people have guessed it already.

But I guess people already figured that out. Definitely a smore’s bar, and it fits to be a Luna bar. But I guess people already figured that out.

I tried one at the Yoga show this weekend. It was tasty. I don't need the prize anyway. Eventually we'll do a granola trade.

Is there an organic version of Count Chocula? I love that soy is mentioned 6 times in the list, yet the manufacturer still feels the need to state that the product "contains soy".

I'm guessing a Luna bar... and the "marshmallow flavoured nuggets" makes me think it's the Smores flavor. I think there is a Smore flavor? I'll check tomorrow at the store.... What is a flavored nugget anyway? I didn't even know "nuggets" were considered food?! :-D Yes this has got to be a bar.
