I LOVE these protein bars!!

I had to order them online because I couldn't find them locally

I got a mixed box  to try the different flavors ( I didn't get any CHOCOLATE OR PEANUTBUTTER)   and so far  like most of them.  Love the lemon!!!

High in protein and low in sugar and fat.

If you can give them a try.

I had my surgery in March 18, 2011. So I just gotten through 1 year. I tried these bars and they are the BOMB. I even got my coworkers that has not had the surgery eaten them and we all say the Lemon is the best. With me being a year out this bar helps me get through the day and I am full.

Just got a box of the vanilla...they're okay, but I was expecting a vanilla coating and was surprised they're so naked~

Will try lemon next time...have to wait since they were about $30

I also ordered some online (was NOT willing to buy a whole box... or even theri repmade sample packs... I just wanted a couple of certain flavors to try).  I don't like the general texture of protein bars (and these were really not an exception, but were much better than some) and use them only for "emergency" supplies to ward off hypoglycemic reactions.  I despise all of the ones coated in whatever that white crap is, so I was VERY glad that none of these had that!

My take on them, flavor wise, FWIW:

- LOVED the strawberry cheesecake and vanilla almond
- LIKED the lemon, cinnamon roll, and the apple pie (but only if the apple and cinnamon ones are heated in the microwave)
- VERY DISAPPOINTED in the brownie (if you think it tastes like a real brownie, it has been WAY too long since you last had a real brownie!), mixed berry (almost NO berry flavor at all!!), and the PB&J  (just.... ick)

I have one of the coconut cashew flavor but have not tried it yet.

I love the chocolate and peanut butter!  I did not like the "naturals" line as much as the originals, but none of them are horrible.  The ones I liked the least were the lemon and the apple pie.  The lemon has a fake "pledge" furniture polish taste and the apple has a fake chemical taste to me.  As you can see, everone has different tastes.  You can order bars individually from netrition.com.

I'm alone in my opinion of Quest.... but since they're not paying me.... I thought the texture was terrible.  Bought the variety box to try, tried a few, finished none and gave the rest away.  Word to the wise -- just buy 1 before you jump to a box.

If someone had told me that about Unjury (sample first, then buy)...um...I'd be twenty some dollars richer!
