Quest Protein Bars

A new favorite treat of mine is QuestBars.  They have a lot of protein, no sugars added and quite a lot of fiber as well.  They're also fairly low in calories (about 160-180 calories).  They're somewhat pricey but I've found that they're cheapest from LuckyVitamin.com (about $1.95 to $2.05 per bar).  You have to buy them individually from LuckyVitamin at the moment but they may sell the 12 bar boxes in the future.  They have a website but the bars are actually more expensive when you buy them directly from their site.  
I've only tried 4 different flavors so far but here are my reviews of them...  (if there's no review, then I haven't tried it yet but I plan to!!)


Apple Pie - Yum!!  This tastes pretty much as good as an apple pie.  It actually has bits of apple in it even!!  It's a little salty / sweet but it tasted great!!  I plan to buy more!!


Chocolate Brownie - one of my favorites!!  It really is like a brownie (albeit, sugar free...) and it's somewhat firm / crunchy.  It's hard to explain but it's one of the best chocolate flavored protein bars that I've tried so far.


Chocolate Peanut Butter - another favorite!!  I wouldn't say it tastes like Reese's Peanut Butter Cup (because it doesn't) but it's still really good.  And if you need to eat more calories, you could always melt a little peanut butter and drizzle it over the top of the bar or something.  I may try that next time!! =)


Cinnamon Roll - one of my other favorites!!  It has awesome flavor!!  I'm definitely buying this again!!


Coconut Cashew


Lemon Cream Pie  -  this wasn't bad but not my favorite either.  It didn't taste like 'lemon cream pie' but it did have a somewhat faint lemon flavor.  Unless it was the only one they made or if I was really craving lemon, I probably wouldn't buy it again.


Mixed Berry Bliss -  I was surprised that I liked this.  The name didn't really appeal to me but it was really good!!  It was like the 'jelly' part of the Peanut Butter & Jelly bar (which was really good too!!)  I will definitely buy this again!!  It even had real freeze-dried blueberries and strawberries in it!!


Peanut Butter & Jelly - I don't know how they did it but this really does taste like Peanut Butter and Jelly!!  I really liked it and I'd buy it again!!  =)


Peanut Butter Supreme - This was good but I actually like the Peanut Butter & Jelly bar better...  and the Chocolate Peanut Butter bar better too.  I suppose if you're just craving peanut butter and nothing else, this will probably quench that desire but I liked the mixed ones best.  I'll still buy more of these too though!!  =)


Strawberry Cheesecake - This was pretty good!!  It actually had small bits of freeze-dried strawberries in it!!  I'd buy this again!!


Vanilla Almond Crunch - this wasn't bad but not my favorite.  The flavor isn't very strong and I guess I like stronger flavors.  =)  I might buy it again.


I'll add my review of each once I've tried them.  If you've tried any of them, please leave a comment with your thoughts about the ones you've tried!!  =)
