Hey!

Do the QUEST Protein bars taste good????????

DOes anyone else have them online, besides GNC??? Or do any of the retail stores carry them? I checked at Walmart, and they don't carry them.

It's very much a personal thing. I've read posts from some people who love them. I didn't enjoy them. But I haven't found any I like.

I used (and liked) the Premier Protein bars from Costco. 30 grams of protein per bar. I haven't tried the Quest bars.

Too dense and chewy for me. I couldn't get past the texture. Like rubymama said it's a personal thing. Give them a try, you may like them. I personally prefer other protein bars with 10 gms protein like Nature Valley or the Target Market Pantry brand. Less protein but they taste like a candy bar to me.

Oh... and I have to add... I love the brownie and cookie dough... Some of the others... well, are ok, but not 'love worthy' :)

I really like the Quest bars...especially the white chocolate raspberry, brownie, and peanut butter and jelly. I like them in the microwave for 10 seconds...so much better than way.

I love em.
Double Chocolate chunk is awesome. Chocolate brownie is also good. The trick is to microwave them for 8-12 seconds to make them chewy.
They're a bit pricey but I think they're worth it. I get them at The Viamin Shoppe. I usually get two boxes at a time. It's about $55.00, but for me it's a no brainer protein fix.

doono. I looked at them and decided I couldn't afford them. I kinda like the ones at Walmart.

It's hard for me right now, to walk, so I will ck out the ones at Walmart.

THanks !

I've tried 4 of them. I liked the cashew/coconut and the peanut butter supreme. The other two had chocolate and the chocolate tastes like baker's chocolate. I was thinking it would taste sweeter, more like dark chocolate. So, I don't like the ones with chocolate so far.

Oh, and the Isopure drinks were horrible. They even smell bad. I tried two different flavors. They tasted the same to me. So, I took them all back.

Good luck Boo!
