Vanilla Almond Crunch Low Carb QuestBar Review

My second Questbar was an improvement from the last in taste. This on had a vanilla taste which was mild and seemed to fit the texture better that the Cinnamon Roll flavor did. Still the problem I am having with these is that they just taste unnatural and to protein-ish and it's likely that the taste comes from all the protein they shove in these things. This flavor is still not quite good enough to make me want to come back. Maybe I need fresher bars. I don't know.

I will say this in favor of them. They are very filling. Definitely good for a meal substitute. And they are so chewy they wear you out.

Anyone else eat these? What are your thoughts

If you're looking for a cheaper alternative, try Millville's brand, found at Aldi's. They only have two flavors, but they're not bad. The chocolate coconut is chewy and hearty enough to tide you over. The caramel nut is almost passable as a Snickers knock-off. Here's the info for the caramel nut one: http://www.fatsecret.com/calories-nutrition/millville/caramel-nut-chewy-bar 2 net carbs after accounting for fiber and sugar alcohols.

I love the Millville's bars, the chocolate coconut is my favorite, also love the caramel nut.
Today I stocked up, I got the cranberry almond also, I have not tried it yet, but I am sure it will be just as delicious as the others.

Awesome. I will look for these. I'm always ready to try a new low carb bar. Especially if they pass for a snickers.

I like Quest bars, but I really only like the flavor of their "natural" line. Those are sweetened with erythritol and taste much better than the regular ones. Try the chocolate peanut butter one, it's really tasty!

I have a chocolate peanut butter quest bar waiting for me in my bag. It's my next one to try.
