jess9395 5,449 Posted February 2, 2016 They listened and changed. I got free samples of the new formula and they taste like the old ones! They still have the corn Fiber but they claim they won't produce the side effects the first corn fiber formula did-- https://www.facebook.com/QuestNutrition/posts/1102553853117988:0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valentina 2,642 Posted February 2, 2016 This is great news. I had a lemon Quest bar after my pool P.T. the other day and I swear I sounded like an entire rhythm section walking out of the pool area! It's not an issue at home since I live alone, but Gucci, my Chinese crested was starting to give me indignant looks! Thanks for the update. Gucci thanks you too!!

I just ordered a box as they are offering a "no shipping fee" coupon right now. They are great tasting and have decent numbers i.e. Protein, sugar, calories and are SOY FREE!

KristenVSG2014 1,872 Posted February 2, 2016 I just tried my new free sample. It's so dang overly sweet. ???? I'll try the other one tomorrow and see what I think. I think I'll stick with my Protein mug cakes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cinnamon roll tomorrow Sadly the Protein mug cakes don't go well in my purse or glove compartment! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Brecher 10,515 Posted February 2, 2016 We sell the entire Quest product line in the BariatricPal store. We received many complaints after they reformulated their bars a few months ago. I believe flatulence was the #1 issue. Personally, I don't eat them but I'd love to hear more feedback from members that have eaten and tested the new formulations.

Dub 9,922 Posted February 2, 2016 Great news. Thanks. They really do make some excellent products. The Protein, low carb and high fiber content of the bars is a perfect meal for my desk drawer at work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
