Quest bar slippery slope!

#1

Anyone else addicted to quest bars? I’ve eaten 6 in the Last 2 days.

#2

Nope. I don’t buy that stuff for exactly that reason. :slight_smile:

#3

Yea… I only have 5 more to eat. I should just eat them all tonight.

(Full Metal KETO AF) #4

I avoid all pre made food products if at all possible, with exception for cheeses, bacon, and the occasional condiment.

I don’t trust “keto” products as it’s becoming big business and probably not so healthy as food you make yourself.

After all you can’t put a ™ on a vegetable or a piece of meat!

the faster you eat them, the faster they’re gone :woman_shrugging:

(You've tried everything else; why not try bacon?) #6

The faster you eat them, the sooner you can go out and buy more. :grin:

#7

But have you had a quest bar?!?

I’ll eat them when I’m traveling and that’s about it. Definitely a slippery slope product to be sure.

I went through a phase with Quest bars as well, but I cut them out after a while. I much prefer the Suzie GoodFats bars - fewer carbs and much less sweetener!

I bought a box once and never bought another.

#11

I ate 3 more quest bars waiting for people to comment…

I hope they don’t affect you as negatively as they did me :open_mouth:

#14

Last time I had one was on a road trip last July and haven’t had one since. They’re ok but taste a little too gritty to me.

They are a sweet treat - I can only buy one at a time! If I have the bar with butter to increase the fat content and hot coffee - it is filling and delicious! Especially here in the deep freeze of Chicago. But - it’s not a great choice—
Have you tried KETO BARS? They are expensive but pure, high fat content, don’t have that sugary taste but meet the bar requirement — warning - they can be addictive too!!

I gotta go run a bunch of miles right now. I woke up hungry, bad sign.

Those sneaky carbs add up.

Where are the rest of the 24g of carbs coming from if only 1g is sugar and 14g are fibre? Or am I totally misreading the label here??

Sugar alcohols I think, and they don’t work well for many people…

#20

At least quest bars use erythritol.

#21

Welp I just jogged 4 miles and sat in the sauna. Hopefully that depletes any stored sugar.
