I buy a box every two weeks from GNC, but I'm more than happy to get a couple for free. Thanks for sharing this!

Thanks, joatsaint, just ordered mine. Never heard of them until this thread, but it appears I'm in the minority there.

Not sure if I can eat them yet but they won't be here for 4-8 weeks, so I should be good then :)

I've tried every one of them but the only one I actually like is the Cookies & Cream. Yes, it is a texture thing but for some reason, the texture of that one seems a bit different. It felt more like I was eating a Cereal bar than taffy and that, I can tolerate.

My husband and I both LOVE Quest bars. I've ordered them directly from the company because it's cheaper even with shipping than at GNC, Amazon, or Max Muscle types of stores from my experience. I don't know what grocery store chains you have in your area, but Hy-Vee is big in Iowa and the stores in the Des Moines area have most of the flavors in individual or by the box and they are the same price as the company when you take shipping costs into account. Most of the time when we want to stock up, we buy by the box because there's also a fuel saver value of 5 cents per box. (For those of you not from here, when you buy fuel saver items they accumulate on a card and you save money when fueling up at Casey's gas stations. 5 cents per gallon of gas with my example above.) Sometimes we leave the store with 30 cents per gallon off our gas price just for the Quest bars! I've tried all of the flavors. I wasn't wild about the Cookies and cream one (I may have been expecting too much) or the strawberry cheesecake one (for the same reason).

My favorites are:

chocolate Chip Cookie dough

Double chocolate Chip Cookie dough

Chocolate Peanut Butter

Smores

Apple Pie

Coconut Cashew

Brownie

White Chocolate Raspberry

My husband loves:

Peanut Butter Pie

PB & Jelly

vanilla Almond Crunch

I bring one for Breakfast at the office every day and drink 24 ounces before I have one and another 24 after (before having lunch). Rarely, do I feel hungry in between.

@@proudgrammy So I tried the raspberry white chocolate you suggested and loved it!!! I also tried the lemon (yuck) s'mores (it's ok but has a cinnamon taste to me and I don't care for cinnamon in food) So favorites are chocolate cookie dough, cookie N cream, and now raspberry white chocolate! Thanks!

Thanks for sharing this! I just ordered my free samples. I LOVE Quest bars! I buy them from GNC, Netrition.com, and I have ordered them from Quest Nutrition as well. I really like almost all of them. My favorites are:
Smores

chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

Double chocolate Chunk

White Chocolate Raspberry

Cookies & Cream

I like the following but don't eat them as often as the above mentioned:

Chocolate Brownie

Lemon Cream Pie

Peanut Butter & Jelly

Cinnamon Roll

banana Nut

Apple Pie

Peanut Butter Supreme

Chocolate Peanut Butter

I eat Quest bars on a daily basis, sometimes twice a day. I keep boxes of almost all of them in the pantry so I always have the flavors I want available when I want them :) I've also found that many of them are better if you heat them in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds. I REALLY like to do that with the Chocolate Brownie, cinnamon roll, banana nut, and apple pie flavors! Yum! Love me some Quest bars!!!!

Cinnamon Roll Quest Bars are my love affair. The Nutrimart stores in my area give you an empty box to fill up with 12 of whatever flavor you'd like for $24/box. I believe GNC and Vitamin Shoppe sell them individually also. Thanks for sharing this for free samples!

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
