I'm a huge "protein bar" enthusiast, and I'm here to tell you Quest bars suck. -Terrible taste. That's completely unacceptable in today's bar market. So many bars taste great. -Below average protein/carbs/fat ratios. -Way over priced.
Hence why they have 15 flavors - everyone enjoys a different flavor. They are not chocolate coated like others, they are not 'all natural' with a 3 months shelf life, but they are good when you want a bar that you know is correct. And while you may not like them, many do. Why we have choices
Did you say that your company was once sued, and WON, but could not counter-sue to be reimbursed for legal expenses, as the judge deemed the case to be reasonable?
I'm not sure if you have changed companies since that time - this was likely over a decade ago now. A friend of mine came to me with some legal troubles, and I recall that case, and meant to ask you. Forgive me if this is the wrong place - you mentioned your business, and I was reminded to ask you. Also, and again my memory could be wrong here, but is the owner of QUEST Nutrition also named Ron? Was the owner involved with this event?
One of the principle owners is named Ron Penna, who is married to Shannon (Yorton) was her original last name? Sound familiar. Because her dad, Chet, was the only bodybuilder to beat Arnold. Ron Penna is a very cool person. In all the times I have met him, he was respectful, and a hard worker. As for lawsuits, they suck. You have lawyers looking to make any form of money, not from winning the lawsuit, but from settling and lawyer fees. They know the rules better than many hard working, and take advantage. Instead of helping you out and trying to make it better, they sue for various reasons meant to get money from you. We did fight a lawsuit once, but it costs money to fight it, even if you win. If the judge find out 1% at fault, you can't get anything back. So even if you copy another companies advertising on your site or instagram, they can go after you for 'false advertising', or 'harmful to someone's else company because of an advantage of an ingredient', or many other reasons. I wish more lawyers would try and help people or business' out there that truly do not want to hurt others, but sometimes don't know about a new law, or regulation, or a myriad of other things. I think they are called 'troll lawyers'. I don't make anything from this website, I actually put more time and money sometimes into it, but i still enjoy the people I meet, the expos, bodybuilding, and of course, photography. Everyone has a story, a good picture, not everyone you see or hear about are assholes, or arrogant. They are just like other people, personas, who have other lives and problems and people who care.
