    LOVE Quest bars!!! I eat one everyday as a morning snack. I usually just go to GNC every week or so and buy a bunch of all different flavors. Chocolate Brownie is my absolute favorite.

    I've had 3 or 4 flavors, wasn't impressed with any of them, to be honest.

    Same here, I thought they were disgusting. They taste like chalky fake food.

    YES! I thought I was the only one who felt that way. Tried them at room temp, then heated up a bit so it would taste like a "cookie." Worst. Cookie. Ever.

    I bought the variety pack off their website... they give you 12 in the box of all different flavors. So far I like the cinnamon roll, strawberry cheesecake, banana nut muffin, and chocolate peanut butter ones a lot, so much I would buy whole boxes of just those flavors. The white chocolate & raspberry (though I have a bias against white chocolate) and chocolate chip cookie dough ones were okay, but the "cookie/chocolate" bits in them l thought left a weird after taste. So far I am pretty impressed with them, I really like the texture for some reason, but I mainly got them for the high protein, low calorie aspect.

    I think they are amazing and, to me, worth the price. However they are a binge trigger for me, big time, so i avoid buying them. I honestly think they taste amazing.

    They're great, but Pure Protein bars are cheaper and to me taste better. Also, they are more readily available at stores like Target and Walmart. I can't live without my Pure Protein bar for breakfast!

    I LOVE that not only do they have 20 g of protein, they have 20 g of fiber! All for just 170 calories- That's what I'm talking about!

    How many carbs?

    I love the cookies & cream and chocolate chip cookie dough flavors. Honestly, I feel like I am eating a cookie when I eat one, so I satisfies my craving for a treat.

    Yep they're like candy to me.

    Me too. The cookie dough is BY FAR my favourite! It's like a treat for me :)

    I wanted to like them for the convenience factor and because I love sweets. However, I found that I don't like the fake sweetener, aspertame-y, after taste. Heating them in the microwave made them more tolerable but still not something I'll buy again.

    This is how I feel, although I'm still trying to decide if I want to spend that much on a snack. Currently I'm giving edamame a try, but as I eat it on the drive to the gym, the bar is much easier than a bunch of beans. Also, I wish pure protein had some fiber in it, but you can't have everything.

    I love them! I eat one daily. :) Cookie Dough and Cookies and Cream are my two favorites and I always buy a box of them each, then rotate them. I also throw in a random one here and there to try new flavors. I have never completely disliked any of them. GNC is constantly having a sale on them, you can grab a few different flavors and try them out. I wouldn't just run out and buy a case of anything until you're sure you love them.

    I love them! The Lemon Cream Pie one is tasty too! The consistency is a bit like Laffy Taffy though, so if you have an aversion to certain textures keep that in mind.

    All this raving makes me want to try one, even though I've despised every other protein bar I've tasted.

    They're extortionate to buy individually online in the UK and I don't want to order a box of something I'll hate. I can pinch my nose and gulp down a protein shake, I can't get through the plumber's putty bars. Are they worth trying? Do they have that stick to your teeth texture?

    I can buy a single pork chop from the butchers for the same price. Grilled pork chops are considerably less convenient and portable though.

    Same here, but the fiber from Quest bars really makes a difference to me.
