in Food and Nutrition
Ok, Does anyone else have this issue.....I would rather eat a Quest bar than make an actual meal. They are yummy, I know the nutritional stats, its quick and portable.
I eat them for breakfast and sometimes as a dessert (WOW those cookies and cream ones are GOODDD!!!).

So, I'm wondering if this is just me ??:drinker:

    I do too! The cookie dough ones are sooo freaking good, especially if you heat them up in the microwave for a minute. I live in the UK and can't get them here so have to have them imported and they're soooo expensive so I try not to eat too many but I just can't resist, some flavours are a bit bleh but most of them are awesome and you don't have to feel guilty eating them yay :flowerforyou:

    I'm with ya.

    Except I usually microwave mine for 8-10 seconds..... cut in half... take a cup or rolling pin and flatten the two slices out.... then bake them for 5 minutes at 350. They come out like cookies!

    I eat them almost every day, too. Definitely the preferred meal for breakfast. Unlike a lot of people, though, I don't like the super sweet, chocolatey ones, which taste like fake sugar to me. All about the Coconut Cashew, PB, and Banana Nut Muffin.

    So glad I'm not alone on the "rather eat quest bars than normal food" wagon!

    I like them when I have a craving, but I don't love them enough to have more than one a day. I have like 4 boxes of them from Cyber Monday that I'm slowly going through, lol.

    Yes! They are expensive, but the Chocolate Brownie ones totally give me my chocolate fix. My husband and I have been trying some of the 15 second recipes from youtube as well. The pumpkin pie was wonderful! LOVE them.

    They are so nice, but I always feel a bit off having one. If you like Larabars too, a healthier and cheaper alternative is to make your own. I've made these (http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/11/14/oatmeal-raisin-cookie-larabars/) a few times with some alterations and they're lovely.

    Just tried the new cookies and cream. It was good and I loved that the texture was different than other quest bars. I love raspberry/white chocolate, peanut butter supreme, apple pie and banana nut muffin. Haven't tried the lemon pie yet.... I typically don't like lemon flavored stuff, but love lemons.

    I'd say I'm addicted. I have Ben to GNC 3 times in the last 2 weeks. Plus ordered by the case online of my fav flavors, they should be here soon. I love them for breakfast at my desk or on the road.

    What a bunch of weirdos in this thread.

    If anybody needs me, I'll be eating my ZonePerfect or Premier Protein Crisp bars.

    (never had a quest bar... now I'm afraid. Very afraid)

    It's not just you! I could eat them all day everyday! Probably one of the best things I've ever put into my mouth!

    Totally did this for dinner last night. I wasn't feel well enough to cook, so I just got a quest bar when it got late and I knew I needed to eat something.

    I have only tried the cookies and cream ones and they are delicious - especially for my after workout "dessert" - heated up in the microwave with a glass of milk.. Cannot wait to try the cookie dough ones - they are next on my list

    OMG yes :(:(:( My family makes fun of me. Another brand that is "addicting" is Genisoy, my favorite flavor being peanut butter fudge. Genisoy bars are expensive, too, but I get them for cheap at Walgreens.com. I would say I'm torn between Genisoy bars and Quest bars. I like Pure Protein and Luna Bars, but they aren't the same as the other two.

    My favorite Quest bar is the chocolate chunk with a close second being chocolate peanut butter. I also like: Cookies and Cream, Peanut Butter and Jelly, Peanut Butter Supreme, the Almond Vanilla flavor, and Chocolate Brownie. I have tried all the flavors but the lemon kind and the wild berry kinds. I do not care to try those two.

    Also - be careful. I'm told that heating them in the mirowave breaks down the protein content.
