"Power bar" is that a Commonwealth English term? As an American, power bar sounds like something you would eat


It’s what we say in Australia.

If you purchase an edible “power bar” anywhere (not just America) you can be sure it has and can provide no power. It might have a little energy stored as a carbohydrate though.


I live in Victoria and I've always called them powerboards. Which state/territory/island calls them "power bars"?


I say "board" too but hear "bar" sometimes in SA.
