    Guess I am the odd person out, thought they were gross, and returned to GNC.
    Did you microwave it? I'm not kidding, it totally changes the flavor. I tried it room temp at first, and was very disappointed. I microwaved the rest for 10 seconds at full power and that changed the flavor. I've microwaved other quest bars and it didn't change the flavor at all. I can't explain it, but microwaving this flavor really makes it better (and I'm actually one who usually prefers the ultra chewiness of a room temp quest bar).

    If you didn't microwave it, give it another try. I can't promise a miracle, but for me it really made a difference.

    they are much cheaper if you order in bulk from bodybuilding.com, and sometimes you can get the same price on amazon but they ALWAYS come in stale!! they are horrible when they are rock hard like that. So I would really avoid amazon unless you really need that 2 day prime shipping.

    They make me so full, and they are so yummy and full of protein that I'm just obsessed. They completely fulfill my sweet tooth urges!

    I ordered some from luckyvitamin.com. Tried my first one, which was choc. chip cookie dough. Didn't seem very good to me. Have no desire for another one. Never thought of microwaving it. I hope the other flavors I bought are better...........

    yes, however it does use sugar alcohols. some people don't prefer that over natural sugars. it is also a bit high in sodium so for me sometimes it does taste a little salty, but they do have a high amount of protein for under 200 calories if you are in a rush and don't have time for actual food.
    not to mention good amount of fiber

    My favorite so far is the PB&J. Kinda weird, I know, guess I'm not that much of a chocolate person anymore.
