 Lee, you mentioned Quest protein bars. What are your recommended flavors? Went online and had too many choices to gamble on. Would rather have your guidance. Or anyone using them. They look awesome in their stats.

Thanks.

Wendy, if you haven't already send away for the free samples before buying a box.

I couldn't stand them, they were way to salty tasting for me.

 Thanks for the input. I seem to crave salt, so maybe I'll like (lol). Thanks for the sample idea. I have made lots of mistakes, trying to find what works for me.

I got my free samples and I'm in Canada!  It was last summer I think that I sent away for them.  A couple other people in my office got them too.  

My branch manager's kids LOVED the bars but I couldn't choke them down.  Took a bite of each and threw the rest away.

 How did you get samples? Is there a website or something else? Were the samples free? I'd like to try first.

Here's the link.  Their website says they have a 100% money back guarantee if you don't like them so that's great!

I haven't gotten my free samples yet.  But, it's okay because the new PB&J is what I really wanted anyway so I ordered a box of 12.  Supposed to be here on Wednesday and will let you know if they are yummy or not.  :-)

Hi Wendy,

I had to place two follow-up emails before they actually got my free samples to me.  I just persevered.  :)

I have only tried the Vanilla Almond and the Peanut Butter.  While I enjoy the Vanilla, my favorite in the PB.  I took a case with me to Spain and was so happy to have them.  I love the dense chewy quality that I can sink my teeth into.  I don't find them salty, or maybe just a bit but I don't mind it.  I love that they aren't chocolate covered so that they can sit in the car or in your purse without melting and getting yucky.  It almost reminds me of the raw Lara Bars except much better. 

My favorite part is that the bars have 15 grams of fiber.  A protein bar with that much fiber will stay in my food plan.

I've read reviews that the chocolate is good, a friend loves the apple but I don't even care to try it.  The Berry Bliss also doesn't interest me.  I'll try the chocolate the next time I order the PB flavor.

Hope that helps!  If you haven't ordered by August and I still have some, I'll bring one to Santa Rosa for you if you remind me.  :)
