    I like them but only recently started buying them. Prefer them heated for a bit. I want to try them in some recipes like I've seen on IG. For $1.99 a bar I think they are pretty comparable in price to other bars. I also like the Elizabeth Hasselbe NoGii bar. I think as far as taste it's preferable to Quest IMO.

    As said several times, the Cookie Dough flavour heated for 10 seconds in the microwave is possibly the greatest thing known to man. Seriously, I can't buy in bulk because I just want to eat them for every meal hahaha :laugh:

    However, I love the Apple Pie and Cinnamon Roll flavours too :) and just ordered some Cookie & Cream bars to try. The rest I can take or leave, except for the berry and lemon ones… I find them icky, personally!

    I would say pass. I tried one and returned them all back to the store. I had a massive headache after eating one. I did some research and they use fake sugars which give me bad headaches. Also they use these 'fake sugars' that have been banned in some areas of the world for cancer causing issues.

    I found them gross and VERY heavy. I like to have protein bars before i work out and these are just too heavy to have. I went back to the other protein bars and am happy as a clam now. :drinker:

    I love Quest bars! When I crave a candy bar I eat one of those instead. My personal favorites are the Chocolate Brownie, Cookie Dough and the Chocolate peanut butter.

    I do find them very filling and usually only eat half at a time.

    If you don't quest, you're never going to get your XP up and hit that next level.

    I love Coconut Cashew & Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough.

    After reading threads similar to this one, I tried the cinnamon roll flavor. It went into the trash can after one bite. It was mushy with no contrast in texture and an unappealing chalkiness/sandiness. I did not heat it before hand, but I do not feel like 10 seconds in a microwave could have saved it.

    I'll stick to Cliff Builder's Bars or EAS Lean 15.

    I second the Clif Builder's Bars, they actually taste good, probably because they have real sugar in them. I bike long distances so I actually prefer the sugary stuff.

    I tried a bunch of flavors of Quest bars and I thought they were absolutely foul. Everyone seems to love the cookies and cream flavor, and I seriously do not know what those people are tasting. To me it tasted like cigarette ashes, dirt and a little bit of sweet n' low suspended in foamy play doh. Ugh...the texture is just gross and if you put them in the microwave like everyone suggests it's even worse. Soft, foamy, sticky, bland, weirdly salty logs of yuck. No thanks.

    Heck yes!

    I know I'm a little late to this thread but if you're looking to try out a bunch of flavours postedprotein.co.uk are the cheapest place to pick up Quest Bars in singles :D

    I flagged your post as spam. You've posted the same thing a bunch of times. You obviously work there or have a vested interest in that web site.

    I LOVE the banana nut muffin ones. So good.
