    To those complaining about the cost of quest bars. Spare a thought for us Aussies...

    They're $5 each or $42 for a box. A tub of their protein powder is $60

    Not sure where you are buying yours but I bought my first bar yesterday for $3.90 at the local health food shop (15 minute walk).

    Probably my last quest bar, I was underwhelmed. Got s'mores and it was okay but not good despite warming it.

    Those Pure Protein bars look good though, need to see if they are available here.

    There's 3 places near me that sell them. 2 health food stores, one of which charges $56 a box, and a sports supplements store for the price i quoted in my last post.

    i ordered them online once, buy the wait and cost of shipping was annoying, plus they were slightly melted by the time i got them.

    I get mine from drugstore dot com. With cashback dollars and sales (i just got a 20% coupon on sports/nutrition from them actually) it often works out to less than $20 a box.
    Too pricy still even then, imo. But I keep buying Questbars so evidently I must think they're worth it.

    I truly do love them. Double chocolate chunk is my favourite.
    I've got 3 sitting there right now, they're like gold bars lol
    I'll wait till I'm really craving one later, bing it in the microwave for 10 seconds and savour every bite :D

    @christinev297 that's ridiculous. Maybe order that fiber stuff they use and make your own. At the price you're paying, why not?

    Has anyone tried the Quest Pasta? Would love a review of it before hunting it down and buying it.

    You can buy shiritaki (konjac) noodles just about anywhere for a fraction of the cost of quest pasta. It's basically the same thing. It isn't a pasta substitute by a long shot, but great in stirfries etc.

    yeah I've thought about that. But our customs are so incredibly strict, I'd have to check it with them first.
    Ofcourse they'll allow certain things if you pay $$$$ for a permit :huh:
