Quest bars - protein bars: What is your opinion on this product?

I tried one based on this thread; here's my "review". I bought the white chocolate and raspberry version.

Pros: excellent taste, better than other protein bars I've tried (they blow the hideous Clif bars away); provides good quantities of fiber and protein.

Cons: like many protein bars I've tried, has the consistency of modeling clay; has a bit of a chalky or grainy mouth feel when you're eating it; overly sweet for my taste, to the point of being cloying; a lingering sweet aftertaste in the mouth (I think that's the monk fruit).

I'll probably try another flavor or two to see how they compare. If you like *really* sweet things, you might like these. If you like your sweet treats more toned down, this might be a bit much for you (as they are for me).

I LOVE them! The cookies and cream is so delicious and they fill me up a lot. I'm trying to increase my protein intake and they help a lot with that too. The cookie dough one tastes like complete and utter garbage though xx

Quest bars are horrible in my opinion. They have a weird flavor and aftertaste. I really like Larabars. They come in a variety of flavors, are made from all natural ingredients and have no artificial colors, flavors or sweeteners. Larabars are vegan, gluten free, soy free and kosher.
