Quest Bars {My Review}

*This is not a paid post. I am just very passionate about this product and wanted to share my experience with it!*

About a year ago, I heard a friend of mine talking about Quest Bars. I had never heard of these so-called "healthiest protein bar". A few months later, I decided to check them out for myself.

I'm one of those people that you could call a health nut, but I also eat in moderation and am not always perfect. I think it is boring to be perfect..#yolo right? When I hear of a healthy food, I immediately want to try it! So, I went to their website and read more about these bars. The nutritional stats were phenomenal.
  • 20g protein
  • 3g net carbs (holy cow that's low)
  • 17g fiber
  • 1g sugar (this is where I really got interested!)
Not to mention the flavors...there were so many to choose from! I wasn't sure how to pick! Thankfully, Quest offers variety packs with several different flavors included.

Picture courtesy of this site:

The variety pack I chose included 12 different flavors for $25.99. Yes, it is fairly expensive, but I thought it would be worth a shot. If I wasn't impressed, I wouldn't buy again. No biggy.

A few short long days later, I finally got my package in the mail. I was so excited to try them! I decided to incorporate them as my afternoon snack. Afternoon snack time the next day couldn't come soon enough! My friend had told me they are best if you microwave them for 15-20 seconds, so I did just that. They were warm and gooey - just like a fresh baked bar. I couldn't wait to dig in!

HOLY COW! I was so impressed with these! Sure, I was hoping they'd be tasty and had heard good things but I never thought they would be this impressive! It seriously tasted like a sinful dessert, yet it left me feeling full and healthy! I also never got bored with the flavors - there was such a variety! It was actually hard to choose which one I'd try for the day!

Ever since then, I have been hooked! They are a bit pricey, but I just make sure the price is in my budget each month and I'm set. They are so worth it to me. I may be spending more, but at least I'm getting a much healthier/more satisfying bar than what you can buy at the store. Seriously, NOTHING compares to these - on any level!

It is hard to pick my "favorite" flavors as I have honestly liked each one I've tried so far. Here are some on the top of my list:
  • Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough - who doesn't love cookie dough, right?
  • White Chocolate Raspberry - probably my ultimate favorite, if I had to pick! ;)
  • Strawberry Cheesecake
Go ahead, give them a try. I swear you won't be sorry! Order here:

  1. I am going to have to share this post with my co-worker. She recently started training for a bikini competition and her coach recommended Quest bars in her eating plan. She has never really tried them before, so this post may be helpful to her :)

  2. Yes, absolutely! I was definitely skeptical at first, but they are great!
