Before she opened her all-vegetarian, all-pie eatery Sweetie's Pie Diner, Stephanie Thaw was doing Sweet! Her mini poundcakes and oatmeal cookies are stuffed with organic grains and are only minimally sweetened, but made quite an impression on local eating enthusiasts.� Around the same time Thaw started Sweet!, she began running and developed an energy bar to fortify her fellow distance runners.� Motley Fuel bars come in four flavors and pack 334 calories, 18 grams of fat, 39 grams of carbohydrates and 10 grams of protein in a chewy, all-natural package that bears no resemblance to the dust-colored clay of a Powerbar.
Try the Mosh Pit Mix of oats, honey, peanut butter, coconut, raw almonds, sunflower kernels, dried cranberries and apricots, semi-sweet chocolate bits and flax seed -- all organic excepting the honey, 'cause who knows where bees go?� A portion of the sale price of every Motley Fuel bar benefits Students Run Philly Style, a program that helps city kids achieve success through marathon and distance running training.
Motley Fuel bars are available at Sweetie's Pie Diner (1822 Spring Garden St.), Pumpkin Market (1610 South St.), Caf� Cret (16th St. & the Parkway), Breakaway Bikes (1923 Chestnut St.), both Philadelphia Runner locations (1601 Sansom St. and 3621 Walnut St.) and in Mt. Airy at InFusion Coffee & Tea (7133 Germantown Ave.).�� If all else fails, order them� online at RegionalBest.com
