    I've been on a bit of a protein hype the past few weeks and was really looking around for some good bars and found Quest Bars, I bought the 'Cookies and Cream' and 'Double Chocolate Chunk'. They're horrible, they taste like artificial sweetener and salt, and I can never stomach more than half a bar in one sitting, I've found that they're more palatable when cold, although that means they're harsh on your teeth. But despite all that, they're really good for you, and not a bad (even if horrid tasting) filling snack for on the go.

    I'm interested in trying the Quest Protein chips though, and have bought some BBQ flavoured ones which I'm still waiting on in the post. Fingers crossed they taste better than the bars, and also better than 'Protein Bites' by Novo which carry a very strange taste regardless of flavour.

    I've had the nacho cheese quest protein chips - they are definitely worth getting.

    The Loaded Taco flavored Quest Chips.

    You're welcome. :)

    I normally make my own plantain chips but was stoked to find these….

    Just bought the Quest protein chips yesterday. Tried the ranch and really liked them! I thought they would taste like cardboard but they’re good! ufv61zdpb3r6.jpeg

    I’ll have to look for them. I saw plantain tortilla chips too. My local store only carries the Himalayan salt. I may have to find them online!

    Terra chips are amazing as is but add salt n vinegar and wow are they good. Too good because I ate half the bag. havqu41y3jxj.png

    I love those, but I don’t buy the many more… they magically disappear 🤷‍♀️😆

    Anyone ever try these? I got a few boxes this week and they are SO GOOD!! I'm not sure the calories are correct because sometimes I have a hard time following the "net carb=lower calories" thing (accurate or not??), but they are very tasty and filling.

    I love these. They also have seasonal toasted coconut muffins on their website right now. If you like coconut they are fantastic. They make a pumpkin spice one seasonally too. They are incredible and I hope they come back out soon. If you look around a little you can often find a good discount code online.

    Just tried these and instantly ordered the banana cream pie flavor as well. Tastes like an Almond Joy without the almonds! Plus it’s high in protein!

    Probably a dumb question but are the insides like the other bars or more...well...marshmallowy? I can't do their regular bars anymore so need something less chewy.

    These are chewy but not as chewy as the regular bars, in my opinion anyway.

    LOL I'm not sure what to do with that! But the banana cream pie one sounds good.

    Are there pieces of coconut in the coconut almond one?

    LOL too late. I decided to buy a box of each flavor. I had some built bucks to use and for some reason ended up with a $25 gift card so basically $20 for the two boxes.

    I actually prefer the texture of these over the regular bars!! I'm an ambassador for them and have tried all the puff flavors and the coconut is my favorite! My code "scriptsandspoons" will also give you 10% off <3

    I think you'll enjoy them! No coconut chunks and they are more of a marshmallow consistency! I had my second one at work tonight and I enjoy them more than the regular bars. Can't wait to get the banana cream flavor.

    That's a relief! I'm sorta over the regular bars (sorry, @dreamer182 ). Ever try just sucking on a slice of the built bar? (Don't ask. :)) There's like no flavor whatsoever once the chocolate's gone.

    Sorry, I had already torn the package and had a ‘d’oh!’ Moment :blush:

    Got a few of these on clearance because I have been working on (as much as I hate the phrase) “eating clean” during the last couple months, but I also love ramen. You can’t make these like Top Ramen where you can kind of just soak them in hot water; they do have to be boiled, but they’re really yummy! The broth tastes like miso soup and the noodles are the exact right texture. I might order some more from Amazon; they have a lot of different flavors!

    If you like pho, look for Happy Pho brand either in your local store or Amazon
    Zero sodium and you can just pour boiling water over the noodles.
    About the same # of carbs.
    Great stuff

    These taste like sour patch kids but super super chewy. I didn’t like them because I hate sour stuff but if you like sour patch kids you would like them. Big serving for only 80 calories. eyk8fpa6zm3h.jpeg

    Ugh, what a monkey paw. I love sour candies, and love super chewy gummies, but I hate watermelon in all forms!

    Got this the other day. REALLY good! Big crunchy clusters, good spice flavor, and whole almonds! My only gripe is that the bag is pretty small… But maybe that’s also a good thing lol
