			WW Points: 4 (PERfection. And yay - I agree; in such things, it is sometimes possible to increase tastiness whilst increasing healthiness. Win/win. Also, heart/heart) --[[User:Caryatid\|Caryatid]] 12:12, 15 September 2009 (EST)

	Actually, your dietary analysis totally inspired me to go out and learn how to make healthy substitutions in baking, which is awesome, because there are lots of foods that actually taste better with less butter (shocking, I know!). It's mostly fruit-based things, like carrot cake or pandan-banana bread. And these oatmeal bars are much tastier and more moist made with baby food bananas instead of butter - I actually eat smaller servings. It's pretty cool. Yay PinkCat! --[[User:Ubernerd\|Ubernerd]] 18:16, 14 September 2009 (EST)		Actually, your dietary analysis totally inspired me to go out and learn how to make healthy substitutions in baking, which is awesome, because there are lots of foods that actually taste better with less butter (shocking, I know!).

	- This is really cool! Thanks for doing such a thorough analysis on the nutritional value of my fiber bomb bars. I do use them as a meal substitute, or a really hearty breakfast if I'm planning to just have a green salad for lunch, so I feel a little less guilty about making larger servings of this recipe. BUT! I agree that something can be done to lower the point value on this thing. For instance, I believe that the stick of butter that I use as a a base can be eliminated or cut back to several tbsp. I think what you want to use in its place is mashed bananas. Try substituting a little less than 1/2 cup and see if that comes out better. Also, the bananas will add a little more sweetness naturally so you can cut back a bit on the honey. --[[User:Ubernerd\|Ubernerd]] 08:39, 15 May 2009 (EST)		- This is really cool!
