    I like pure protein chocolate peanut butter and the pb think thin ones.

    Agree, quest bars are gross. Optimum nutrition cake bites are delicious but not low carb.

    I like the cookie dough Quest bars. I haven't tried that many different flavors, but I think it was double chocolate chunk and maybe chocolate brownie? They weren't great either.

    I have a Quest Bar every day.
    My favorite flavors are Chocolate Brownie and Peanut Butter Supreme.
    I like either of those better than a Snickers Bar or Reese's Peanut Butter Cup--the only "candy bars" I really like!

    I like them for the most part, but I pretty much like anything so that doesn't say much. The lemon Meringue pie quest bar was the first thing I have eaten in a VERY long time that I took two bites of (2nd just to make sure) Then threw it away, and that's saying something. But I like all of the other ones I have tried, and their protein chips too.

    Am I really the only one who can't stand quest bars? I really want to like them and I have tried 5 diffrent kind. I've ate them plain, baked them and microwaved them. Still nasty ☹
    I think they taste like chemicals. Any thoughts?

    I certainly don't think they're anything special...certainly don't live up to the hype they seem to get. Not sure why you're really wanting to like them though.

    Used to love them and now they taste like crap to me. Fake flavor and odd after taste. Go for Oh Yeah ONE Bars instead.

    Same. The only one I can still tolerate in the mint chocolate one because the mint masks the chemical taste.

    Taste is tolerable, especially cookie dough which I almost "like." Of the off-the- shelf widely available stuff around here, they have the best stats for what I am looking for.

    Someone mentioned Cliff. They are one of my favorites tastewise, but the carbs/cals are through the roof. A rare yeast for me and only if I know I am training really hard or competing that date.

    One more vote for Oh Yeah ONE bars. High protein, lots of flavor options. The pumpkin pie and almond bliss flavors are two favorites.

    I am another vote for optimum nutrition cake bites, they recently came out with a chocolate covered donut flavor that is so good!

    Kind bars are good. I also really like Santa Barbara bars as well.

    There are a few I like/tolerate. My go tos: Cinnamon roll, Coconut nut (I think that's what it's called), Oatmeal chocolate chip, blueberry muffin, choc PB....

    If you have a local supplements store, I'd check there. I'm not sure if GNC carries them. The 7/11s around me have them.

    I really like white chocolate raspberry Quest. I put it in the dash of the car while I'm working out, come out of the gym to find it perfectly warm and ready to eat. Yum!

    I'm a big fan as well... had the oatmeal chocolate chip for breakfast today. I also like the blueberry muffin and the chocolate cookie dough.

    I know the GNC's around me (Western NY) carry them!

    Yeah, that one's my favorite. I also like the PBJ, Apple Pie and Vanilla Almond. The "traditional" chocolate flavors do not agree with me. At all.

    I haven't liked any of the ones that I've tried. My fav is the ONE bars.

    I like maybe about half the flavors. I usually get Pure Protein bars though. Same amount of protein and calories (but not as much fiber if that's important to you) for about half the price.
