It's a game changer if you microwave a Quest bar for 30 seconds!!! It rises and changes the texture to be like cake, and dramatically improves the flavor! Just set it smack in the middle of the microwave plate. I spray the plate lightly with oil or rub a little butter on it. The chocolate chunk and brownie flavors are my favorites to microwave, but they're all good.

As I am going keto again , at 75, I may try them again for my evening munchy attack. And I will have to try the microwave trick! I am enjoying your videos. Thanks!

Steve, it’s funny that you do this review today. I just happened to see a KZbin today that Wes (Highfalutinclowcarb) did about 7 months ago on a Quest bar. He doesn’t like them but saw a sort of “hack” on them on tik tok and he show what the person did with the bar. He put it in the microwave and he ate it. He said it changed enough he actually liked it. It was his low carb Lazy Cookie Battle. It’s at the end of his video. I’m going to give it a try. I’m not really crazy about the bars.

We buy a lot of Quest bars in my family! We have them on subscribe and save Amazon order lol! They work for us and even the non keto kid loves them and it’s a much better choice than some of the other “protein bars” out there. Funny enough, neither of you cared for the chocolate chip cookie dough and that is a family favorite of ours!😂 I do not like the brownie one which was your favorite! However, it is excellent dipped in sugar free natural peanut butter! I agree with many others about microwaving it! Even better is putting it in the hot sun on a summer day for a few minutes! I keep the wrapper on when in the sun tho to keep critters away😂 love this video Steve! Thanks again!

Thanks for the glucose test; Now I know why they satisfy my hunger for something sweet without making me crave more. Since they are so dense, I rarely eat a whole one. I just picked up a couple of boxes at Sam's since they're on sale right now and I'm getting back on track from the holidays (gained 2 pounds from Thanksgiving through Christmas).

Unfortunately, Quest bars are a food group in our house, on subscribe and save. I consider them keto junk food, but the fam is pretty dependent on them. I eat them occasionally. Favorites are seasonal flavors, the pumpkin spice which I swear is only available for a month, and there's a chocolate/peppermint one that's dipped and only available around Christmas. The chocolate mint one (not dipped) is a year-round flavor and probably my fave. Thanks for doing the BG test!

@ I would agree they are MUCH better than the regular Quest bars. I just grabbed one to look at the label and they say “crispy”. I think that’s the key to better texture and they are covered in chocolate. As mentioned before our fav is PB-chocolate, but we also like the occasional coconut-chocolate and chocolate-carmel-pecan. I just wish they weren’t so sweet and the coconut has a bit of an artificial flavor. Like you, they are good in a pinch or when traveling or unable to get a good protein meal in.

if you have access to quest protein cookies, they would be fun to do a review on. I just got their new browned butter flavor in my stocking that I really enjoyed. I also got the new quest seasonal bar of peppermint bark, which was mediocre, and the Legendary Pizza flavoured popped chips - quite good and more satisfying to eat than quest chips so will take to the movie theater for sure, and the BEST new items in my stocking were the WILDE Protein chips that are made of chicken! I got Queso that is very spicy, and my fav is the sweet one of Waffle flavour! but the Legendary is still quieter to eat and a bigger bag so that will still be my theater choice! haha!

I haven't been thrilled with the taste of quest products. They tend to also have more carbs than their competition. I will say, I tried their quest dorito type chips recently and they actually weren't that bad. Costco and BJ's no longer carry the HILO brand of dorito chips. Quest dorito chips have more carbs than h i l o. Finally, the Kirkland brand protein bars, were hand down the best. It's unfortunate they changed the ingredients and they went from 3 to 5 net carbs, to 10 plus net carbs. When I was in New Hampshire for the day on the road, I would eat a whole box of the Kirkland protein bar chocolate chip version. LoL

Curious how often you eat things like this (packaged/processed)? I've been in maintenance I think about as long as you. I've reached a point where I no longer feel I need to be eating 100% unprocessed foods 100% of the time to maintain good health. But I'm not sure how/how often to incorporate things like this. I have been using Equip protein powder for about a year, making a protein coffee 3-5X a week. But that's still pretty clean at 3 ingredients (for the chocolate). Your CGM probably gives you a lot of good info in regards to this question, but I don't use one. Don't really want to have to do a lot of finger sticks either.
@SeriousKeto
@SeriousKeto 15 күн бұрын
I think some people get too dogmatic when it comes to packaged/processed food. I'm pretty pragmatic when it comes to keto, and especially so once a person is in "maintenance". That said, I probably only have a keto bar or protein bar once per week. Similarly, I only eat store bought keto products like bread or tortillas once or twice per week. While I would prefer to do nothing but cooking videos, I recognize that not all people have the passion, aptitude, or time to make all of their food from scratch. For these folks, pre-packaged keto products may mean the difference between staying keto and falling off the wagon. It is for these folks that I do these reviews.

I am not vegan keto but like the macros: 170 cal., Fat 12g, total carbs 9-12g depending on flavor, fiber 8g, Protein 12g. For that just in case moment like you said. First ingredient is Almonds then a pea protein blend and other somewhat good ingredients. If you like I can email picture of ingredient list or if you have time to look up. Just something I found.

Long time since i made a comment. I think they taste really good especially the fudge brownie. I have made the new years resolution to leave them off from now onward. Two reasons, they are not calorie free and yes in my mind calories do count even on keto empty calories are just that and another new years resolution is trying to trim my grocery bill. They are not what I think of as cheap. I can eat a hamburger pattie for the same cost with far more nutrition. 😊

I'm hearing sucralose can cause insulin resistance which will then lead to diabetes. What are your thoughts on that?

@ well, that’s on KZbin’s end. I can tell you that I have dismantled 2-3 of the oft mentioned Sucralose studies for their statistical flaws and poor science on my podcasts.

@@SeriousKeto Ah ok np. So you don't believe long term consumption of sucralose will lead to insulin resistance > diabetes? It would be interesting to see you do glucose monitoring on protein powders like Dymatize 100, Select, and Ryse, which uses Sucralose, and sometimes Ace-K as well. Thx for the reply.

@ well, Keto Chow uses Sucralose and that has zero impact on my blood glucose. Most of these studies on mice use a ridiculously large amount of Sucralose. Way more than a normal human would ever consume by body weight.

I feel the Quest bars have a weird consistency. I saw a video Wes put out a while ago to microwave them - makes a much better texture.

I liked Quest bars, but I found that I consistently had gastro problems the next day after eating them (especially if I ate more than one in a day).
@SeriousKeto
@SeriousKeto 16 күн бұрын
Fortunately, my consumption of bars is generally about 1 per week. I'll need to pay more attention to my "gastro region" when I have my next one, but I don't recall anything from when we tried them for this review.

@ Not sure. They were in Cali in the 80’s and 90’s. And I’m pretty sure I saw them in Florida in the early 2000’s. Beyond that … 🤷🏼‍♀️

The chocolate ones remind me of a tootsie roll. That said, cut them in half and give them 4 minutes in the pancake dash griddle; they become brownies!!!

I love these, but they send my blood sugar up 30-40 points quickly. i use as a treat or when traveling. The Quest cookies that look like a cake cookie don't do that, so I eat them.

Yike.. I dont think I want to put a synthetic lab created ingrediant (polydextrose) in to my body, or corn "anything" and I'm betting that whole Natural flavor thing listed is pretty much the crap LMNT pulled and it's likely in part maltodextrin. Love yur channel Steve.

I also don't like the texture. For me, they are both dry and pasty and I don't like some of the ingredients. So, although I tried the one that was given to me, I wouldn't spend money on them. Thanks for the review.
