Aching for something bad for you? With these treats, being bad never felt so good.

Apple: You free at 4PM?

You: Sorry, 4PM is bad for me. I've got a standing date with the vending machine.

We never seem to go for the “good” guy, —so imagine our surprise when we were introduced to Lärabars. Finally, a healthy way to indulge our cravings without getting burned. Snack on one of their good-for-you versions of our favorite “bad boys:”

Coconut Cream Pie. This is such a tasty treat--and it treats us right. Bye-bye buttercream, hello iron-rich cashews, almonds and coconut.

Cinnamon Roll. With this baby in hand, we can finally stroll past a Cinnabon without looking back. Our new love makes us feel good all over with healthy omega-3s and 4 grams of fiber.

Peanut Butter Cookie. Our apologies to the Girl Scouts: Now that we've found this, we're canceling the Tagalongs. We've got a date with 30 essential nutrients that love our body.

Pecan Pie. Tastes like it came from the bakery, but instead of corn syrup, it's made with antioxidizing dates--and enough pecans to make us swoon.

Vending machine, it's over. With this many new sweeties, we plan to play the field.
