Lots of bars out there, and at Quest we appreciate the feedback, along with the support that won us a 2012 bodybuilding.com award!
Congratulations on the award.

Don't get me wrong.. the Zero Impact Pumpkin is a personal favorite.. but when both are on the shelf, Quest > Zero
I've never heard someone complain about a bar being TOO healthy before (the guy complaining it has too much fiber in it...wtf lol). Zero impact do taste real good as do quest, but ingredients/macro wise, quest ****s on it. The only issue with quest bars are texture when they're not heated up, and i really DGAF about that. Warm up a quest bar and you have one of the best tasting/texture treats around. I generally don't eat a quest bar though that hasn't been warmed/nuked for a little though, eating them cold/hard kills the experience.

I love quest so I definitely disagree. I will say the texture isn't the easiest to chew, but as long as it hasn't been in the cold its more then manageable. There have only been like 3 I haven't liked Peanut Butter & Jelly, Peanut Butter Supreme and Mixed Berry Bliss. The rest were amazing.
I definitely think people need to stop comparing bars that are significantly higher in calories, fat and carbs to quest though.
Quest bars deserve props for not being a glorified candy bar.

Their nutrient profile is very impressive. I am astounded by their fiber content.
I wish my budget allowed for them to be a staple.

Love quest bars. The peanut butter and jelly ones are awesome.

Thank me later
Assuming nutrition is an important factor when choosing a bar, Quest is among the best you can find. If your primary goal is flavor, just buy a candy bar.

I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to!

You do realize that ZI is designed as a meal replacement bar, yes?

nope, was unaware. Also, ****s on it may be a strong phrase, I personally enjoy myself a pumpkin ZI bar every other day while I been cutting, so I should be clearer on that, and taste wise they're def comparable. But quest do have a better macro content.

Snacking on an apple pie Quest right now. Hoping Quest will come out with more bars in the "original" line, the texture is personally more palatable to me.

"Better" macro content?
Comparing Quest and ZI bars is apples to oranges.
ZI bars are practically flawless for what they are -- a meal bar.

Same way I feel about the comparison.
But then people have no issue comparing UP 2.0 to Trutein

They were short lived but pretty good. Biotest also made a lemon grow bar that was tasty.
I go through roughly 4 boxes of quest bars a month between my son and I. Also like the vpx bars when I am looking for a little more calories. Those are pretty much the only bars I would recommend using in terms of profiles.

Right..because 17g of Prebiotic fiber derived from plant sources is just so bad...
