This week I got the pleasure of trying Quest’s Mocha Chocolate Chip flavor thanks to a friend of mine. Going through the numbers quickly, we have 180 Cal, 20 grams of protein, and 14 grams of fiber. The protein amount is pretty similar to all the other bars I’ve tried. But, the 14grams of fiber is a great addition to reduce the hunger following the exercise. There are, unfortunately, 6 grams of sugar alcohol inside (which I personally don’t really mind) which is mainly used to give it the chocolate chip sweetness.
The overall taste and texture of the bar are similar to all the other quest bars I’ve tried so far. Dry, but not so artificial. Biting into it feels more like eating a leftover cookie rather than a chocolate bar. But the overall flavor is not repulsive, and I personally have come to peace with it.
Considering all these matters, I can’t say this was the best protein bar I’ve tried. It wasn’t even the best Quest bar in my humble opinion. But, it was still an acceptable post-workout snack. Even though if I had to choose, I would rather have Quest’s chocolate hazelnut.
