    Ah - that explains things - no nuts allowed, so they had to send Simon and couldn't send Matt.

      David Gibson yeah the rolling out of the bars using manual labor seemed very old fashioned and not cost effective.

    • @rahulik9891
      @rahulik9891 4 роки тому +1

      They putting in so much labor cost where they can just use autpmated machines that does it for them. Even if they can't afford the machines, that's why theres people that run factories that does everything for them and you can control cost of goods more efficiently because you pay for it done in bulk of per 1000 or 10 000 units.

    Bought ten of these bars, two of them were moldy - I was lucky to open the first moldy one before the race, because during the race I would just eat it without examining it. It was well within the best before date (about half a year remaining). So... no, thanks, I will stick to the ones I make myself.

    Nice SiS tour. Being a Yank, I'm all about the Clif bar life, especially when I can reliably get them bulk in the US for $ .90 (or less) a bar. I love baking, but it's so much cheaper to buy bars vs. make them.
