It was carob pods – rather than locusts grasshopper that sustained John the Baptist while he lived in the wilderness preparing the way for the Messiah. Ceratonia siliqua, commonly known as the carob tree (from Arabic خَرُّوبٌ kharrūb and Hebrew חרוב haruv), St. John's-bread, or locust bean or simply locust-tree, is a species of flowering evergreen shrub or tree in the pea family, Fabaceae. It is widely cultivated for its edible pods, and as an ornamental tree in gardens. The ripe, dried pod is often ground into carob powder, which is used to replace cocoa-cacao powder.

I’m allergic to chocolate and this is the closest thing to chocolate for me and I love it.
Just more proof that organic sweets offer a delicacy to satisfy anyone's dessert craving. This is the definitive candy bar without any of the caffeine. An incredible carob bar to indulge in.
Super healthy, high fiber carob alternative for lovers of chocolate bars. The krispy brown rice adds a special touch to these awesome, tasty sweet treat bars! Tastes just like a real milk chocolate bar,,,,,,,
It is perfect. Just the right amount of krunch. Not too much. Often when there is a filling it becomes the filler. Not the case. You are getting alot of carob. Just perfect. Healthy too.
I purchased the new Koala Krunch Carob bars. I usually purchase the original bars but I decided to try something new. The Koala Krunch bar is just as delicious as the original with more crunch from the toasted rice. For those who can't tolerate chocolate and miss Nestle Crunch/Hershey Krackle bars this is a great alternative. My family also likes the cute koala on the wrapper.
