Quest Nutrition has quickly become a new favorite in my diet. In a nut shell, their bars are candy for bodybuilders and healthy eaters. Quest was kind enough to send me two of their most popular flavors to review (chocolate chip cookie dough and white chocolate raspberry) -so here you all go!
I have seen people have them straight out of the wrapper, baked, and broiled. To give a fair review... I did all three!
Chocolate chip cookie dough: The bar of this was soft enough to eat on its own, except the chocolate bits are very crumbly. When baked, they all melted like a regular chocolate chip. (This made it taste exactly like cookie dough!) If you broil it, the outside gets a little harder but the inside stays gooey which makes it taste exactly like a chocolate chip cookie! My favorite way was broiled and on a nice big bowl of profroyo (protein frozen yogurt). Delicious and nutritious!
White chocolate raspberry: On its own, I liked the taste of this bar better. There were lots of white chocolate bits, but they were very crumbly too. There are actually little bites of raspberry in the bar which I really liked. Baked the chocolate bits melted like the cccd bar. Since it wasn't supposed to be a 'dough' flavored bar like the other, this texture wasn't my favorite but the flavor was still very good. Last I broiled it until the outside was a little crispy and the inside was nice and gooey. Once again it tasted exactly like a cookie!
All of quest's bars have 17+ grams of fiber, 20+ grams of protein, and as low as 3 grams on net carbs... which is insane! Especially for the taste. Having tried these (and being a healthy eater) they satisfied any sweet tooth I may have completely. But I wanted a true test so I stopped by my GNC and bought one for my mom. She chose the chocolate brownie flavor and her only comment was it tasted exactly like a big tootsie roll. She didn't bother baking or broiling hers and just ate it out of the wrapper. Her reaction was about the same as mine- delicious and well worth the price! If you'd like to try quest bars you can order online straight from www.questnutrition.com or stop by a GNC store to stock up!
