I'm not usually a huge fan of protein bars because a lot of them are just glorified candy bars. They have wonderful sounding flavors but then you open them and they are unrecognizable gooey lumps. However I have heard awesome things about Quest bars so I was excited to review them, especially their new cookies & cream flavor.
When I opened the cookies & cream bar I was initially a little disappointed by the way it looked. It is the standard looking gooey protein bar. I cut a piece off to try and set it aside. Opened the chocolate chip cookie dough bar and again was disappointed in the appearence but cut a small piece off.
I tried the chocolate chip cookie dough first. It was ok, not great. It had a very protein taste, and it didn't love the texture. Again it wasn't bad but definitely not something I would purchase. After that my expectations for the cookies & cream weren't very high. It was DELICIOUS! It had a similar texture to the first bar but the taste was amazing and it has little bits of cream mixed in. Quest definitely nailed it with this bar. I can definitely see half a bar mid afternoon helping kill my sweet cravings! I'm so glad I was sent these bars to try. I definitely plan to pick some up to keep to keep at work for the next time I need to "cheat clean"! Next up will be Leah's review of the bars, and she's even pickier about food taste/texture than I am so stay tuned for that!
