    Quest bars are def the best! A little expensive (~$2/bar), but anything of quality usually is. ;)

    If anyone wants to try Quest bars before buying, they brought back their free sample program. You can fill out the form on their Facebook page -- https://www.facebook.com/QuestNutrition?sk=app_733419926675832

    2. Thinkthin protein bars *(buy at sams club or target for best prices)

    It always boggles my mind the Quest fanatics on here. IMO, they are the worst tasting slab of goop I have ever tasted and twice the price of most protein bars. I've tried many and Pure Protein is (IMO) the best tasting and one of the most cost friendly bars. The Chewy Chocolate Chip is my favorite. Best yet, Pure Protein was recommended by my trainer AND the nutritionist at my Dr.'s office. I was skeptical, having about given up on protein bars, but so glad that I gave them a try.

    That being said everyone's taste is vastly different, so OP if you don't like the quest bars just keep trying different brands until you find one that suits your taste :)

    So glad I found this thread. Thanks to everyone for their contributions. I've used Atkins in the past but the Quest, Pure Protein, and Think Thin line of "mobile breakfast" looks very interesting. As a diabetic, I feel that I really need to narrow my search by sugar/carb amounts. Next on my list of priorities is cost, and finally calories.

    I know that sometimes you need to have a good bit of calories to start your day (is important to keeping you from making stupid "snacking" mistakes before you even get to lunch, so you'll need something "stick to your ribs"...

    Personally for me, since I work from home, a normal breakfast is a DIY cold brew latte and two boiled eggs, and sometimes a small gala apple; but I'm looking for products to give me diversity so that I don't get tired of the same-ol-same-ol.

    Again, thanks everyone for the input!

    Happy new year!

    I am enjoying this thread as well...A question about the bars. Does anyone know if they (quest, pure protein) contain lactose? I usually pick Kind bars, because they don't have any, but am curious about the others. I'm lactose intolerant and once I tried a Quaker Valley Protein bar and it sent me over the deep end. The protein powder I buy is a low lactose formula and it does not upset my tummy at all...

    Just curious if anyone knows...

    Everyone likes Quest, but they are so expensive! My favourite is the Peak Body Pro Light 25 bar: 177 calories, 25g of protein, and available for about £1 each.

    I personally prefer the texture/lightness Kind or Cliff bars because I'm less likely to get heartburn if I eat one before exercising.
