<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Dear Listmates: In regard to the posting about Steel Bars made by American Body Building Products, I do believe the listing of ingredients of their Hi-Pro Peanut flavor lists "crisp rice (rice flour, rice bran, sugar, malt extract)," and I think malt extract is made from barley. My husband lives off of these things. They look great, but I've never *tested* them and don't plan to until I contact them. Their number, for those interested, is 1-800-627-0627.
