I'm quite sure they're still available--I just had one a few months ago when
I was in Singapore. I would guess they have a limited distribution--not
available in the US, most likely. If you take a look at
http://www.networkfoods.com/products.htm, you can see a picture of a Van
Houten Roast Almond bar somewhere in there. They have an e-mail link if you
want to ask them if where the bars are available. But from their site, it's
only available in the Middle East, Asia, and Australia/New Zealand.

There's also http://www.haranosur.com/subCatProdS...sp?subCatId=98 for
on-line ordering--but only within India, from what I can tell--oops.
