Founded by avid backpacker Chris Kerslake, Journey Bar, Chicago, IL, offers 100% natural savory-flavored travel bars. According to a company statement, Mr. Kerslake developed the savory flavors — Parmesan Romano and Coconut Curry — because he didn't want "something that tasted like a candy bar, and there were no savory bars on the market." The Parmesan Romano variety is flavored with parmesan and Romano cheeses as well as Italian spices, and the ingredients listed on the Coconut Curry label include turmeric and sea salt. Both bars are made with whole grains including oats, flaxseed, amaranth and millet, and the company promises more flavors soon. They are available on the company's website for $19 per dozen.
