I ordered one of each of the Quest bars and don't care for any of them. I eat about 1/3 when I eat them. I've tried different protein bars and have decided I'm not a fan of any of them.

I have only tried the brownie one and dumped on 1/3 bar. Don't think I will be trying them again any time soon.

Funny things happened to me: On Sunday I dumped on a quest bar. It is not suppose to happen. But it did. Today after I ate one I checked m,y blood sugar and 15 min after I finished the bar my Blood sugar got up to 200... that only can indicate that either there is more sugar in them that the company said it is - or that my body (and yours and some other people) react and we actually absorb the fiber - and use that as carbs. No more Quest bars for me.

And I will have to return the one I bought from them. Except the one I plan to send for testing...
BTW: I have severe RH post op RNY and more than 5 gr of sugar or 10 gr of net carbs gives me a real trouble...

Thanks for the replies. I have tried all of the original ones. Ordered the sampler from Nik's site. I would like to try some of the other flavors that do have the SA and wondered if I would have problems. I think I will order some of those. I can only eat 1/2 of one before I get full but I did like most of them. I do have 2 of the almond ones that I would be happy to share.
