Somewhat disappointingly, this mystery bar was not terrible. Chang liked it just fine, while some people had seriously adverse reactions, like accounts dude Andrew Deckard. Here's the two of them enjoying a snack together:

But mostly it was just okay. To me, it tasted like apples with just a hint of coconut. It was chewy in a slightly unpleasant way, but if I were starving, I would eat this before I would eat my neighbor.

David Wolinsky, upon his return from lunch (and after the bar had been fully consumed) swore that it's alligator meat. I would do more investigating, but it's probably better that this taste test is a mystery. You know what the man said: "When the legend becomes fact, print the legend." And the legend of Chang lives on.

Office reactions:

— "Not bad at all. Just tastes like a Power Bar."

— [From an e-mail titled "Nasty Green Turd."] "I spit it out. It tastes like applesauce and cardboard blended together. Sweet chunks of green cardboard."

— "It is as if this started as an apple, then it became apple sauce, but then they condensed it into bar form. Oh, and it's neon green."

— "There's just a hint of coconut."

Where to get it: Josh's desk, apparently. He's fresh out, though.
