    I generally eat about six times a day and half of a Quest bar is the perfect 95 calorie snack. I don't eat them every day because I also have a protein shake almost every day, but on the days I have trouble meeting my protein goal they both come in pretty handy. I love the chocolate chip cookie dough flavor, but not enough to over eat them.... ;)

    Yeah ditto. I'll never binge on Quest bars, which is a good thing, lol.

    Chocolate chip cookie dough for Quest is the best flavor they have, IMO

    I like the low-glycemic quality they have, and for me are a "better" alternative than some of the other bars out there. They taste pretty decent but they are expensive.

    Last time I bought chocolate chip cookie dough I CRAVED them like constantly. I had two different cases and I ate the cookie dough one every day until it was gone, completely ignored the other! I loved white choc raspberry but I had to stop buying them because the seeds got stuck in my teeth.

    One of my MFP friends turned me on to Quest bars, and although they're quite expensive, they're delicious and perfectly suited for my diet & exercise plan. Cookies and cream flavour are my favourite. :smile: :cookie:

    I just got 4 of the Quest Natural bars yesterday. I had the Strawberry Cheesecake one yesterday, and plan on eating the PB Chocolate one today. I'll be honest, it's got less calories, less carbs, more protein, and more fiber than eating a cup of kidney beans ... and it tastes so much better. It helped kill my sweet tooth yesterday so I wasn't all sad that I was out of Fiber One brownies. :stuck_out_tongue:

    I found some at a local Woodmans and picked up a Strawberry Cheesecake and a Lemon flavored bar. Haven't tried the lemon yet but the Strawberry was quite good. I don't remember the exact price, but I know it was over $2.50 a bar, which I consider too much so this will be an "every once in awhile" snack.

    I eat them because sometimes I want a sweet source of protein and Quest bars are a lower carb/sugar way for me to accomplish this. To me they taste like candy bars. so if I can have candy and protein at the SAME TIME, I consume fewer calories overall than if I ate a chicken breast and then ate a snicker's bar. Also Quest bars are a lot more convenient to carry in my purse than a chicken breast or a can of stinky sardines.

    LOL this gave me a good chuckle imagining the chicken breast or stinky can of sardines in the purse!

    The Quest Raspberry White Chocolate is my go to treat!!!

    Check out Amazon - they can get you down to around $2 per bar. Vitamin Shoppe and GNC also have sales now and again.
