AnnaLV 32 Posted October 6, 2013 Ok guys, there are about a gazillion Protein bars on the market, and let's be realistic, the majority are just glorified candy bars. So this begs the question, has anyone found some exceptional Protein Bars for a Meal Replacement on the go that they would like to share? What is the best taste/protein content/lowest calorie/and most natural ingredients that you have tried? Also, has anyone tried to make their own yet? I'm thinking about playing around with some recipes and seeing what I can come up with :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MIJourney 490 Posted October 6, 2013 Agree with glorified candy bars.... that said I do love a Quest bar. I stick with the "natural" ones just because they have a few less calories than the other flavors. My favs are strawberry Cheesecake, Coconut Cashew and chocolate Peanut Butter.< /p> 1 AnnaLV reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Montereygrl 104 Posted October 6, 2013 For me by far is Quest bar, but I haven't had any sine before surgery. Quest will send you a free two pack sample if you go to their web page and contact us section. Tell them you are having surgery. 2 ReDbEaN and AnnaLV reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

macman 603 Posted October 6, 2013 I agree with the other comments. Quest Bars have been the best by far. I recently purchased a sample pack of twelve to see which ones I liked best. So far all of them have been good! 1 Montereygrl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LifetimeLoser 208 Posted October 6, 2013 I am also a fan of Quest bars. In the beginning, I just got the standard ones from costco. Over time, I didn't care for the coatings on all of them. Most Protein bars have that chocolate coating that just got too sweet for me. I found quest bars and they are wonderful. I can keep them in my car in the hot sun and not worry about them being a mess when I want to eat one. Cookie dough is my fav!!! 1 AnnaLV reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SerendipityHappens 1,594 Posted October 6, 2013 I just looked at their site. It appears to me that the carbs are very high?? If you're talking about Quest bars.. most of them have 17-20 grams of Fiber. Most of us don't count fiber in our carb counts. Quest bars are one of the least carby bars out there. 2 chefcoll and NMJG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
