  • The best bar I have found is Quest. The are relatively low in calories, fat, sugars. The carbs are mostly from Fiber. And each bar packs in 20 grams of protein! Unlike many so called Protein bars tha

  • I have to agree Quest probably has the best numbers, but I have a hard time with the texture. I sacrifice Protein for better texture. GNC Lean bars aren't too bad..15g protein, 7g sugar, 10g fiber..

  • I wish Quest was paying me or at least sending me coupons! Love them!

Quest cashew coconut tastes great but it's so sticky I can't stand the texture. But it's not sickly sweet so that's good. They are here in my desk and going nowhere. Bought a whole carton and ate two. Someone suggested refrigerating them. Maybe I'll try that.

I agree on the Quest bars. I also use Healthwise bars - Peanut Butter and Caramel Crunch are my favorites (www.mybariatricpantry.com)

I would caution you - all Protein bars I've come across are very "carby" I use them once in a while, I don't have them every day. For me, it's a bad habit to rely on them - if I eat a lot of carbs, my body craves more carbs. That's a slippery slope for me.

Ok I just ate a Quest Cashew Coconut bar and it was indeed delicious. Sticky yes and hard as heck to unwrap and it looks like a turd (yes I said it) but it was good.
