MRP bars are disgusting, ALL CHEMICALS. Society is completely ignorant about nutrition.

I tried Rise bar-only ingredients whey ISO almonds and honey

Chef Robert Irvine has a cookie dough quest knock off-very doughy and tastY

oh is that the pumpkin pie bar?

The pumpkin pie bar that tastes nothing like pumpkin pie?

No nutmeg in the ingredients??? If u blindfolded someone and asked them to taste it they would never in a million years say pumpkin pie!!

Birthday Cake sounds the best to me for the next flavor.

Pumpkin Pie is here only for a limited time, as it is a seasonal flavor, so by December 10th or so, they will stop selling them.

They have and are modifying the bars quite a bit, so the latest Choc Chip Cookie Dough (which is my favorite) actually tasted the best yet.

(To disclose for those that do not know, I am a Quest distributor, as well as a Victory Bar distributor)

Umm....what's wrong with any of these ingredients?

Also, I dislike all protein bars, except for Quest S'mores....delicious.

If someone was blindfolded would they know it's pumpkin pie bar flavor???

cephissus · « **Reply #34 on:** October 20, 2015, 02:44:17 AM »

not a protein bar, but "perfect bars" are delicious

has anyone compared the quest corn fiber formula to the old oligosaccharides formula? i was thinking about it but... animal products

victory bars are shit

i feel like most people saying quest bars are shit probably tried them one time and got a bad batch. the quality varies wildly. i think they might get hard over time or something, too, sitting on store shelves. maybe better to buy them direct.

pumpkin pie is the only flavor i haven't tried... favorites are chocolate chip cookie dough, white raspberry, banana nut muffin, pb & j

Yamcha · « **Reply #35 on:** October 20, 2015, 03:51:16 AM »

I said "blueberry waffle" in my original post, I meant "blueberry muffin"

Or better yet, blueberry cheesecake!!!

I recently wrote Quest Nutrition about GetBig and our demands. Their reply:

Plz ask Jerry to address the hundreds of unhappy customers on their Facebook page

Plz also ask Jerry why the bars taste like shit, did quest actually taste the pumpkin pie bars before releasing them because the pumpkin pie tastes nothing like pumpkin pie, why it seems like they use cheap ingredients now yet still charge the same prices, and plz also ask why they fucked over their customers and destroyed the bars? Did they think we wouldn't notice?

I am sponsored indirectly by Quest.
I will not speak ill of their product, nor will I be your message boy.
(I do agree that the bars aren't what they used to be

)

I also have a suspicion that "Jerry Ortiz" will pretend not to speak English once criticism rains down on her/him/it

Feel free to post up a recipe.

I was getting a terrible bloat and overall dehydration (they just soaked up water in my body and sat in my stomach like a cement turd) off the regular protein bars. Trust me, I tried every one of them I believe. All makers, Detour, MetRx, Quest, Perfect, etc...

I finally just decided to make my own and cut out all the crap and useless fillers that is in the store bought ones. Very simple recipe that I threw together the first time I ever tried to make my own and just stuck with it. Keep in mind that I made these as a meal replacement type in mind.

Vanilla Protein Powder (I use Beverly. It's the best I have ever used)
Ground oats (run through a food processor or manual coffee grinder. This is for the healthy carbs.
All Natural Peanut Butter (for the healthy fats)
Cinnamon powder (to give the taste a kick to it so it isn't all bland and sweety.)

I bought some vita fiber. Hope I don't shit out my liver when I try it.

Hey quest
How come nabisco was able to make their pumpkin pie Oreos flavor actually taste like pumpkin pie?

Those oreos are deadly addictive.
I have two full packs in my pantry due to the fact that they immediately sell out at my local walmart.
Saving them to make "oreo balls" for thanksgiving get together.

Caramel Apple Oreos tasted like banana split.

was weird
Birthday Cake is the best
Brownie Batter is good if you like chocolate a lot
Red Velvet is the second best (seasonal around valentines)

Been wanting to try the Lemon crème

We don't have any of this in the grocery stores here in Hawaii. Just the regular and all chocolate ones. Maybe I should order a bunch off the net and set up a table outside the store like the girl scouts do.

I would love to hear any suggestions you'd like to make towards Quest Nutrition regarding their Quest Bars!
Flavors, texture, etc.

I'd like to see the following flavors:

-Birthday Cake
-Blueberry Waffle
-Pecan Pie
-Key Lime Pie
-Sugar Cookie/Gingerbread (Christmas Flavor)
-Oatmeal Cookie
-A good tasting Peanut Butter bar.

Never understand why people torture themselves for a minute with a tiny sweet square of chewy fiber. Theres no way those things leave you satisfied on a diet.

Ill take a nice big bowl of chicken and mushrooms over that anyday.
