Here's the label info for "Nature Valley Oat's 'N Honey Crunchy Granola
Bars".  Honey  is listed after sugar, but before brown sugar syrup.  These
aren't the exact brand you mentioned, but I had one of these in my desk at
work (they're pretty tasty, too).

Ingredients:
Whole grain rolled oats
sugar
canola oil
crisp rice (rice flour, sugar, malt, salt)
honey
soy protien
brown sugar syrup
salt
soy lecithin
baking soda
natural flavor
almond flour
peanut flour
CONTAINS SOY, ALMOND AND PEANUT INGREDIENTS

Two bars (42 grams) have 180 Calories, 11 grams of sugars, and only 6 grams
of fat (0.5 g Saturated fat), so are much less than a McDonalds hamburger
(9g fat, 3.5 Sat. fat) or a Quarter Pounder with cheese (30g Fat, 13 g Sat.
fat).  I am unsure of how many grams there are in a teaspoon of honey (or
sugar), but the 11 grams represents about 1/4 of the total mass of the bars.

IHTH.
