    Great, I just bought 3 boxes yesterday.

    Burn
    I bought 2 boxes the other day.. from GNC :( The sales rep finally said something "not completely stupid." He was telling a highschooler not to take test boosters "because it's not safe for him yet." I don't trust GNC sales associates for anything other than ringing up my order.

    I'm inclined to agree. Last time I was there the guy asked if I wanted to try their lean meal replacement powder (instead of the protein powder I buy) so I don't get 'beefed up like a dude'.

    I've never tried these, but I'm a sucker for a good deal. Can anyone chime in on taste? Is there any artificial sweetener after taste? I was thinking about the white chocolate raspberry and the cookie dough flavors. TIA!

    Yeah, bought mine at GNC. Fortunately they will refund when I bring them back to the store.

    I really like them, no weird after taste IMHO. WCR and CCCD are the most superior of flavors. Chocolate peanut butter is decent, cinnamon roll is okay, and the rest all make me sadfaced, especially the double chocolate. Such a let down.

    That's a great price but I have found that sugar alcohol that is in the quest bar hinders weight loss. Just be careful!

    They sure haven't hindered my loss, if anything they allow for a clean cheat and help me hit my macros.

    Sure you're not just one of those people who bloats from sugar alcohols...? Or just eating 100 Quest Bars a day (good god, the fiber alone would kill you).

    Just bought four boxes. I am now poor. Gimme dat Double Chocolate Chunk.

    Thanks :) I'm going to pick up singles of those two flavors at the supermarket tonight before ordering the boxes.

    No way! I think the Double Chocolate became my new favorite; I wasn't a fan of the chocolate brownie at all, but these hit the chocolate on the head. Cookie Dough is definitely amazing. I can't stand any of them without microwaving them at least 10 seconds anymore though.

    Just so you know, you can buy sample pack boxes on the websites that contain one or two each of their most popular flavours-- they're included in the sale. That's what I did, because a) bargain and b) get to try all the flavours!

    I've only had the CCCD. I thought it had a little bit of an aftertaste, but not enough to make me never want to eat them again. You didn't like the double chocolate? I heard that one was good. Now I have sadface.\

    ETA thanks OP!!!

    That doesn't seem likely at all. I have eaten probably about 500 of them. Weight loss rate has not been affected.

    They are the best tasting store-bought bars I've ever tried. Well, there are tastier bars out there but they are just glorified candy bars. These are the best compromise between flavor and nutrition.

    BUMP!

    Bought 4 boxes today... Wish I could have bought more but need to save some of my budget as I need some protein powder also.
