A Quest Bar a day, keeps the doctors away-

     Okay. So perhaps that title is a smidge of an exaggeration, but honestly, when something tastes that good, why should it not be eaten regularly? If the bar was unhealthy or packed full of nasty things, then that may be reason. But Quest have made sure that nasty additives, sugars and poor nutritional facts does not tarnish their reputation of the bars. Perhaps, if they only had one flavour, then pure boredem would drive you away from them. Again, Quest have created over 12 different flavours.

    So, as for my initial statement. Why on earth shouldn't I eat a Quest Bar a day?! With so many flavours, most of which should be considered completely naughty, I'm yet to decide which is my actual favourite.
Chocolate Brownie perhaps? Or Vanilla Almond? What about the brand new Cookies and Cream?

With names like this, surely, surely they must be ridiculously bad for you? There is no way that these could be eaten without guilt?

WRONG!

     With their #treatclean hashtag used across all their social media channels, it appears that everybody can enjoy Quest bars, regardless of diets, whether they are aiming to loose or gain weight, athletes and children alike.
''That's really all it takes to become part of the Quest Team. It doesn't matter what your specific Quest is, just that you have one. So, whether you're trying to lose a beer belly to pick up more chicks, trying to get SHREDDED and lean for a competition, or you're looking to add some lean muscle mass so you can whoop Michael Phelps' ass the next time you see him '' -
quote from their website

    Sweetened with sucralose and stevia (often voted the best and most natural sweeteners) the bars contain no added sugar (absolutely none, zilch) and a staggering 20g of protein, it's hard not to love them just because of the nutritional facts. Dairy free, gluten free. Definitely a keeper in my books.
I've tried several of the flavours and have not been disappointed with any.
Apple Pie, Cinnamon Roll, Peanut Butter Supreme, White Chocolate and Raspberry, hardly things that you would consider 'clean eating'.
Now there are MANY different ways to try a quest bar.

1. You could be bog standard and eat it as it comes, straight from the wrapper.
2. You would try topping it with certain things (peanut buter, jams, yogurt, nut butters, spreads, chocolate) if you knew what was good for you.
3. You could bake it into cookies, pie crusts, bake it into cakes, eceteraaaaa.
4. You should without a doubt try warming it up (it expands and GROWS magically)

   There is a only a certain amount of excitement that you can stand when you open a Quest bar and find that half of it is one, big, chunkfest. Above is a photo of my Cookie Quest Bar and as you can see, half of it was one big chunk. The bar practically bent in half because it was so top heavy.
I was lucky enough to get sent an absolutely monstrous package of enough Quest bars to last me; well I'd say a lifetime, but as we discovered earlier, I enjoy them far too much...GUILTY!

So, as for a review. That was my honest review. I can't fault them. They are becoming more readily available in England as well, at sites like:

The only downside? There must be one you exclaim.
That they are gone and finished FAR too quickly!!
