Hey Tess

OK...you all have sucked me into trying the Quest Bars, you make them sound so good and filling too....I order 1 of each that sounded really good to me...What I want to know is which of these are best heated, how long and how (micro/toaster oven?) & have you tried any frozen/refrigerated?

PB supreme
Vanilla Almond Crunch
Strawberry Cheesecake
Coconut Cashew
PB & J
Chocolate Brownie
Cinnamon Roll
Chocolate PB

Thanks for your help

 Hey Alesia:

Here is my take on the bars that you ordered.  The PB Supreme, Chocolate Brownie and Vanilla Almond Crunch,  I heat for 15 seconds in the microwave so yummy!  I like the Coconut Cashew, Cinnamon Roll and Chocolate PB unheated.  They are the natural bars and when you heat them, they become a little too doughy for me.  Sorta like raw cookie dough warm....I am not a fan of the Strawberry Cheesecake but I would not heat it either.  And, the PB & J didn't touch the PB Supreme but I would heat this one too.  I hope you enjoy your experience with the Quest Bars.  I love the PB Supreme, Chocolate Brownie, and Coconut Cashew.  My Favorite three of the moment.

Thanks Tess

I was thinking the strawberry cheesecake might be good out of the freezer, like frozen cheesecake bites...Any thoughts? think it would be so hard it would break your teeth?

I am not sure.  You try it and let me know.  I have one strawberry cheesecake bar left.  If you get a good result from it then I will try it to.

I just got my samples of the regular ones.
Will do as you suggest.
But what do you do wth:
Apple pie bar?
Mixed berry?

I like the natural: the PB and coconut cashews. I can eat them warm or cold.

 I would heat both of them as they are too dense not too.  I loved the apple pie but kinda burned out on it.  I am not a fan of mixed berry but that is just me.  Enjoy!!

 Aren't they the yummiest!  I think this is my food drug of choice now.  I wonder if there is something in them that makes us crave them????
