A middle age/late age suburbian white man or woman who is usually middle class that values natural things. Granola people, dispite common belief are NOT hippies and have normal houses and familys. They are extremely Left. A Granola person can usually be found in nature or at L.L. Bean.

Usually found in the northern Rocky Mountains of the continental United States. Often mistakenly linked with hippies, however have no over-arching motivations for societal progress. Instead are focused solely on spending the majority of their time engaging in outdoor recreational pursuits. Despite never having held a full-time job, granolas usually manage to purchase several thousand dollars worth of over-priced outdoors equipment (i.e. skis, kayaks, rock climbing gear) which they strap to their over-burdened 1995 Subaru Legacy station wagons. When not actively outdoors, granolas can be found together in small to medium sized packs smoking marijuana, listening to the String Cheese Incident and Jack Johnson, and watching Warren Miller videos.
90% of the "locals" found in Jackson, Wyoming are granolas.

An exceedingly liberal hippy. Usually tripped out, is part of the green party, with new-agey views on life and death. Eats no meat, and usually no dairy, and therefore has a low iron count; is probably anemic. Is flaky and fruity, like granola. Yum.
That kid's so much of a granola that the red cross wouldn't accept his blood.
