PROTEIN SNACK REVIEW / I Tried the Highest Rated (Exposed)

I am a seasoned professional when it comes to consuming protein bars (watch my protein bar review if you haven’t already!). After incorporating them into my day at snack time, I have not ventured into the newer realm of other non-bar snacks with protein - think chips, cookies, brownies, etc.
Of course, in an ideal world, we’d always prepare something at home -
controlling unwanted chemicals, preservatives, and additives, but that’s not always possible.
Join me in today’s video where I taste, critique, and determine if each snack is worthy of a
“BUY”, or if you should just say “BYE-BYE” and call it a day. All of these snacks are available on Amazon and the links are listed below.
Let me know which protein snacks are your favourites!
Thanks so much for watching,
Nancy xo

The Beef Jerky as a bacon replacement is genius. I'll definitely let my parents know about that one. Also, even if they're not the most calorie to protein friendly, the oatmeal cookie reminds me so much of a Little Debbie Oatmeal Cream Pie that my inner child is resisting the urge to buy some.

[@MamaTenny]

Try it! The “pie” was really tasty! 🥧❤️

Loving your content and channel. I think I have binged every video! You are so informative and authentic. Thank you for getting me motivated! I am heading into the grocery store with a list from your videos! Love it!

[@MamaTenny]

Oh boy, you’ve been busy then! I appreciate that and thank you for your wonderful comment! Best to you 😘❤️

Haha, thanks Oleg!😘❤️

[@courtneylopiccolo6615]

In the US, Sam’s Club has packs of the Quest chips for cheaper than other places. All the flavors are really good. The Quest cheese crackers are even better. They taste like Cheez Its.

[@MamaTenny]

Hi Courtney! I used to love Sam’s Club! It didn’t last in Canada and so far, not Quest chips at Costco 🤞🏼Thx for watching!❤️

[@heidisunshine2003]

Love your honesty, yesss I love snacks too. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I always learn something new. 😘

Thx Heidi!😘

love these kinds of videos from you!

[@MamaTenny]

I'm so glad! Thanks Chris!

[@richardgosselin9548]

Happy to hear that about the Quest chips. I love Tostitos, especially during NFL games, so I can sub these in with my Guacamole. Thanks, Mama T.

[@MamaTenny]

Oh Richard, you’re going to love them! Might need a couple of packs for the whole game!🤣

[@lbar9720]

Thank you for doing this video. I was wondering about a few of these, but with prices they way they are, I didn't want to take a chance on a bad product. I trust your opinion, and I'll pick up a few tomorrow 😀

[@MamaTenny]

Yay! Let me know what you think! 😍

Ooh, a bunch of these look super yummy and macro friendly too! Taste test videos are one of my favorite!😋👌🏻

[@MamaTenny]

Yay, thank you! What are your go to snacks?❤️

[@thefitnessfoodfairy3389]

@@MamaTenny I love a good apple with pbfit, or really any fruit! Lately, I've been making this chocolate protein dip with pbfit, organic cacao, collagen power, and chocolate protein powder too, especially if I didn't get enough protein in that day🤤🙌🏻🍫 sooo good🤌🏻

[@ms_taree7335]

Omg those quest chips are that high in protein? I will have to try them for sure now.

[@MamaTenny]

Right? I was shocked too! And soooo tasty, you’ve got to try them!❤️

[@Petars24]

A fellow youtuber, Michell McDaniel has a bakery (ProDough) that makes protein doughnuts , perhaps Will might like some for his birthday. :)

[@MamaTenny]

Oh Petar, you are so right! Though Will has become quite the donut connoisseur so birthday’s may require a step up from packaged goods! I didn’t see those when I was shopping and I definitely would have taken a donut there are as so fans. Maybe another “not available in Canada thing”🤷🏼‍♀️

[@suomynonaanonymous]

The cookies are way better warmed! I hate them cold but warm they are sooo good!

[@MamaTenny]

I had a feeling that would help!❤

[@Moi_81]

Those Lenny cookies almost caught me too but glad I re-read the macros. I hate when products do this.

[@Coffee384]

You sold me! I’ll have to run out and try a few 😅 Haven’t noticed the protein snack aisle in the Oakville Walmart…will go check tomorrow 😂

[@MamaTenny]

It’s a whole new world out there!😂 For sure try the chips! (4 for 10$🤣)

[@jujn4l]

Quest chips are my favorite! The Eat Me brownie has a weird aftertaste. The cookies give me intestinal upset. I do like jerky, though!

[@MamaTenny]

Quest chip team over here! They were SO good! I’ve heard the cookies were better warmed but I’m not overly interested tbh. Thx for watching 😍

[@rachelmckitterick]

This was interesting. I'm not a snacker at all and the only protein product I have that's processed is Protein Powder. I have a serious addiction to protein powder, like at least 30 different bags and tubs of flavours and brands 😄. So yeah, I found this interesting because I've known these kinds of foods exist but never tried them. So I was wondering what you would think of them all. We have the Quest chips and those cookies but that's all. I really like these food review videos of yours 😊 sending much love to you ♥️🤍💜

[@MamaTenny]

Hi Rachel! What do you do with all the protein powder? Smoothies? Baking? I haven’t gotten on the smoothie train (yet). If you only try one thing, try the chips!😋

[@rachelmckitterick]

@@MamaTennyI have been curious about those chips for a while so was good to know you liked them 😊. Yeah I add it to smoothies. I love Faba Bean (aka Fava Bean) Protein Powder. Its so smooth and much better for sensitive stomachs. We have a brand here that's called Macro Mike and they do Peanut & Faba Bean and also Almond & Faba Bean powders. Soooo good! It sounds like a strange combination but it's really amazing 😊♥️

[@Moi_81]

You should totally do a review. Trying to find protein powder that doesn't have a weird texture or taste is hard. Also going to checkout the Fava Bean powder. Thanks for the tip.

[@rachelmckitterick]

@@Moi_81 ohh I know what you mean. So many have that weird taste to them. Expecually Whey. And Pea Protein is way too harsh for my taste buds. I'm not sure what country you are in as I'm in Australia. But I buy my whey protein from New Zealand company and I swear they are the ONLY ones who do whey protein powder correctly. It tastes amazing. Plus I'm pretty sure they ship world wide. It's a company called NZProtein. They also sell Faba/Fava Bean powder. I've tried so many American ones and most are not nice. Hope that helps. 😊

[@suomynonaanonymous]

Power curls are so good but the egg white ones are even better!

[@MamaTenny]

Ok, I am really a newbie in this protein snack game! I’ll watch for the egg white ones, thanks!❤️

[@smilesandhearts15]

Thank you Nancy for reviewing these protein snacks, I like the beef jerky because it is a lower calorie snack and turkey jerky is good too : )

[@MamaTenny]

There’s turkey Jerky Meredith? I’m going to look out for that! 😘

[@smilesandhearts15]

@@MamaTenny Yes Nancy you really should it has a good taste : )

[@yvettebennett6170]

Those Quest chips are my favorite ones, the flavor is my favorite as well. They are pricey though. I wish my Walmart sold them for the price your Walmart does... Chips are my weakness as well.

[@MamaTenny]

What is it about chips Yvette! Love them!😍

[@bw5911]

Just before I turned 60 I had my first cup of coffee ever. Love it!

[@MamaTenny]

Really? Why did you wait so long? I love the smell, I love coffee flavour in things, but just can’t get into drinking it. 🤷🏼‍♀️☕️

Favorite protein snack is quest chips

[@MamaTenny]

YES! Omg, they were so good!

[@rossalvaro7285]

Will has put me on to your channel and I can’t stop watching. Keep doing the food reviews please! And maybe a day of meal swaps with will like he did on his channel!!

[@MamaTenny]

Hi Ross, so happy to have you here with me! I think Will has been on a bulk (?) so I’m not swapping with him now!🤣 But yes, that sounds like a great idea! Thank you!

[@marulink]

I love your videos. 😍

[@MamaTenny]

I love that you love my videos Maria! Thank you!😚

[@michelebaker8202]

I like the Larry & Lennys soft cookie but I get the peanut butter chocolate chip flavor. They also have a "crunchy" variety of smaller protein cookies that are crispy. The "crunchy" version of their choc chip cookie tastes more like a traditional storebought choc chip cookie- you might like that one.

[@MamaTenny]

So maybe Larry and Lenny deserve a second chance with me!🍪❤️

[@michelebaker8202]

@@MamaTenny Would love to see you try more protein snacks! I enjoyed this video. :)

[@laurahoughton1289]

Gave me some joy on a lonely morning, thank u. Love to hear your opinion on sugar alternatives one day if you have any thoughts on that question.

[@MamaTenny]

Thx Laura, so delighted to have you here! I’m not one for sweets and am not a baker and drink my tea with just a splash of milk so I’m not too familiar with all these sugar alternatives! Is there one that you like? I do keep Stevia in the house for guests who use it in their coffee/tea ☕️🫖

[@laurahoughton1289]

@@MamaTenny thank you so much for taking the time to reply. We can all wean ourselves off the craving for sugar as you demonstrate and I think that's a great solution. Alternatively, many of the sweeter low calorie foods use sugar alternatives to keep calories down, which is why I ask. I imagine that, like all things, in moderation, they are perfectly okay. But, like your video on supplements demonstrated, it pays to be a bit careful even of items purchased in a health food shop when consumed in large amounts.

[@MamaTenny]

@@laurahoughton1289 yes!!! That was a shocker Laura! It sounds boring, but I really do believe that moderation is the best approach overall. We neither miss out nor overdo it! I appreciate you watching and commenting, thank you 😊

I have held back on getting the quest chips but now I'm wondering why. Probably the price. They would be so good in a taco salad.

Definitely! Try Walmart 4 bags for 10$ Cdn, not crazy, more like a protein bar 👍🏻

[@Moi_81]

That's a good idea.
