miller1109 116 Posted June 13, 2015 We are visiting in Chicago and went to the Vitamin store they had small bags of potato chips barbecue and other flavors and they have 21 grams of Protein and 5 carbs and 120 calories anyone ever try them? I am at goal for 5 months now just looking for something crispy and has some salt since my doctor wants me to add salt into my diet because my blood pressure is running low. Just curious.

TheRealMeIsHere! 863 Posted June 13, 2015 I LOVE them!! Especially sour cream & onion, and cheddar/ sour cream. They are a bit more airy than regular chips, but DELICIOUS!! Be careful if that is a type of trigger food for you though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miller1109 116 Posted June 13, 2015 Thanks for the response. No chips are not a trigger food for me. ????just an occasional something with a bit more salty flavor. I bought barbecue and just tried them. They are wonderful. May go back for some sour creme and onion though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRealMeIsHere! 863 Posted June 13, 2015 Cheddar is my absolute FAV!! Sour cream & onion, a close second. GNC usually has buy 3 get one free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted June 13, 2015 I haven't tried these but may in the future. If you need salt may I recommend pickles and/or olives. I love both and have to watch my intake due to the sodium. You can also get a nice crunchy dill pickle or cornichons if you are missing the "crunch". Just an idea.

AvaFern 3,516 Posted June 13, 2015 My verdict on Quest chips is a giant yuck. I tried the cheddar and it was like chewing on cardboard. I also don't tend to like their Protein bars which really seems to put me in a minority of people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Try a chocolate chip one, cut into small pieces and bake like Cookies. About 350* and watch closely, they only take a couple minutes. Taste like little Friehoffer's Cookies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not a fan of a lot of food. I don't eat a big variety. I don't eat any foods that are mixed. Lol. I don't like the texture of many many foods. Most of my foods are very simple.

kbird 13 Posted July 1, 2015 I use the Quest chips in place of bread. I will put hummus on them, tuna on them, avocado on them, cheese on them. It's a great substitute when you really want bread. It tastes better than by itself too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sa1976 221 Posted July 9, 2015 I love Quest bars. I warm them up and they taste delicious. I am traveling to Africa, maybe I will try them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soapandcandlequeen 124 Posted July 25, 2015 I could give up sweets but salty is what I crave. I would be scared to eat those because I may like them too much and binge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
