ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted March 14, 2014 looking for a good Protein bar. coopercoop i like the Atkins bars 6/box many others enjoy Quest bars WARNING WARNING WARNING Protein Bars "can" be dangerous!!!!! they taste like candy and it can be hard to eat just one some "might" think - ohhhhh its chocked full of protein its ok if i eat alot, today, tomorrow but excess of anything isn't good even if there is a lot of protein they are addicting for me like a drug don't like to buy them often, cuz i know i will eat too many but sometimes when i go grocery shopping they "jump" into my cart hate it when that happens!!!! i see from your profile you are about 6 weeks post op hope all is going well you are on the road to a healthier, happier, longer life good luck kathy 1 Danni-doinit4me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teachamy 1,042 Posted March 14, 2014 I have to say the chocolate chip cookie dough Quest bars are amazing. I have also tried the Cookies and cream and the strawberry cheesecake. (I didn't enjoy those 2--they were too sweet for me! But I've read good reviews of both of them.) I have placed an order for trials of banana nut, lemon, brownie, and peanutbutter Quest bars. I agree with Proudgrammy that they can be sliders--even if you can't eat much right now. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Texasmeg 568 Posted March 14, 2014 I've only tried one - the Quest Lemon and I thought it was awful. I'm afraid to try others now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HHHappy 225 Posted March 14, 2014 I like Quest bars, too. They make two types that are sweetened differently. The one I get has stevia or another natural sweetner (name isn't coming to me right now) as a sweetner. The Double chocolate Chunk and Coconut Cashew are very good. 1 Danni-doinit4me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JeanZ_RN 378 Posted March 14, 2014 I love Quest bars. Several of the flavors, that is. I like choc chip cookie dough, Cookies & cream, vanilla almond, and cashew coconut. Other flavors of theirs that I think are ok but not wonderful: cinnamon bun, white chocolate raspberry, and strawberry cheesecake. TexasMeg - I don't like the lemon either. 2 Texasmeg and Danni-doinit4me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Recycled 2,182 Posted March 14, 2014 I am looking for a good Protein bar. one thats High in Protein low in Carbs and surgar. Has any one found anything like this? Thanks Oh my little grasshopper........what we seek and what we ask for needs only to be experienced........ Well.......you did ask for knowledge. Point being, you missed a really important part of the inquiry. It's obvious to me the designers of these power bars are nutrition geeks that never get around to eating their bars. And the marketing guys are even worse. I mean.......A picture of a slice of apple pie and calling it "apple pie". Really?? My guess is you will be trying alot and settling for the ones you can tolerate. Good luck......Enjoy. 1 Texasmeg reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
