I had a standard lunch during the times I went to the junior high schools or high schools that had snack bars in the cafeterias in Texas: a deep-fried burrito similar to the below picture (just one mind you!)
and a Nutty Bar.
Altogether this cost .75 cents. I would usually save the .25 cents left over from my dollar each day to buy a 2nd Nutty Bar if the first one didn't hit the spot. Gosh I loved those things and still do. I always tried to make them last longer by peeling apart each wafer and eating them singly. It just feels like I'm getting more bang for my buck or in this case my buck .79.
Anyway, I have two boxes of these in my pantry right now with plans to see how long I can make them last. I don't think peeling them apart is going to really make a difference. I give myself a week. We'll see.
I recently discovered nutty bars myself not too long ago... I like to save one for a treat at night after I'm done with everything I need to do that day... Sometimes, I walk down to the corner and get one(a value at 50 cents, considering a candy bar is a little over a dollar), but I prefer the multi-packs, which, depending on where you shop, it's practically half price. Of course, I do prefer the12 pack to the 6 pack, the bars are 5% larger...
