I hear you. I dump on them first - in 15 min our so.... Mild dump for me - then 1 hr later I get the 2 round of RH - low BS.. 

I know they are bad for me. Really bad,

Proitein totals arue a daily struggle for me.  Every bar I've checked out has a few sugar grams but in v the fine print there is 15 grams in sugar alcohol.  That's very deceptive, call sugar sugar!  

I like the fiber one but use them in emergency situations

I have days when I don't have time to eat like I should. Especially at work. I will eat a Quest bar for lunch and drink Crystal Light a half hour later. The only down side for me is that I've noticed that the bars leaves me quite gassy!!!

A lot of WLS patients have some weird bias against Quest bars, but they are hands down the best protein bars on the market when you balance nutrition and taste (in my opinion). For me, they fit that perfect balance between "tasty enough" that I'm happy to eat one if I'm hungry and in a pinch, but not "too tasty" that I am tempted to eat them just because. I keep one in my purse, my car, and my desk and they have saved me from hungry afternoons or unhealthy eating out. If they work for you as a protein supplement sometimes, then go for it, especially if they make you feel full and satisfied.

I like the Quest.  I also really like Chef Roberts Fortifix (chocolate peanut butter), but I can only eat half of one.  Power crunch bars are also good, the mint chocolate tastes like a girl scout cookie!  All are available at GNC.

I agree.  I like the Quest Bars.  They are tasty, half is enough and I don't have any issues with them.  Lawsuit or not, I like them and they agree with me!  Like everything else, moderation is key.
