Quest Hero Bars

Flavors Tried: Cookies and Cream, Chocolate Coconut, Blueberry Cobbler Yet To Try: Chocolate Caramel Pecan, Chocolate Peanut Butter General Thoughts Phenomenal taste, no doubt. Unlike regular quest bars, they're allulose sweetened and tend to be lower calorie. Some of them don't pass the protein/cal test, but none are far off... These are also much crispier, bigger, and don't fare as well in the microwave. They are slightly lower in fiber. Overall, very respectable and a delicious treat, but with a steep price. Overall Rankings 1. Cookies and Cream (85) 2. Blueberry Cobbler (82) 3. Chocolate Coconut (75) Price The price these tends to range from $2.5-3.5/bar - slightly more expensive than your average quest bar. 9/15. Fullness Factor I find these less satiating than quest bars, but that makes sense given their generally lower calorie and protein content. Adjusting for that, 13/15. Flavors Cookies and Cream Nutrition: Among the best macros available for purchase (18P/150Cals

Kirkland Signature

Flavors Tried: Chocolate Peanut Butter Chunk, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Chocolate Brownie Yet To Try: Cinnamon Roll, Cookies and Cream Overall Rankings 1. Chocolate Brownie (89) 2. Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (87) 3. Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip (85) General Thoughts This is another staple of mine, mostly due to the price. They had a notable controversy and reformulation over their use of IMO fibers, and now typically net 10-11g carbs per bar (whereas before they were half of that). Their sweetner of choice is erythritol, which I like, and the ingredients and protein tend to be more-or-less clean. The macros and flavors are slightly worse than Quest, but honestly for 1/3rd of the price, they're a pretty damn close approximation. They are also fabulous when microwaved, but don't quite puff up the way quest bars do. Price The price on all of these tends to be solid. You can usually get them for ~$1/bar at Costco. 15/15. Fullness Factor These are all high in fiber, have excell

Legendary Foods

Flavors Tried: Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pastry, Strawberry Pastry, Chocolate Cake Pastry, Hot Fudge Sundae Pastry Chocolate Sweet Roll, Wild Berry Sweet Roll Barbecue Chips Yet To Try: Blueberry Pastry, Red Velvet Pastry, Cookies & Cream Pastry, Birthday Cake Pastry Cinnamon Sweet Roll Nacho Cheese Chips, Ranch Chips, Pizza Chips Overall Rankings 1. Hot Fudge Sundae (85) 2. Strawberry Pastry (84) 3. Wild Berry Sweet Roll, Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pastry (Tie, 83) 4. Chocolate Cake Pastry (81) 5. Chocolate Sweet Roll (78) General Thoughts These are unique and delicious. None of the products are particularly banging, but they're consistently very good. They use erythritol, and you can really taste it, but I don't particularly mind that. Ingredients are clean and protein is high quality. Only complaint is price - they tend to be sold in smaller packs for more money than your average bar. Price These typically run at slightly more expensive than your typical protein bar (well, typica
