Whew! Glad you liked them. I'd hate to have you stuck with a box of bars you don't like. As for price, I've never had much luck finding them for less than about $2.00 per bar. Amazon is generally 24.99 /dozen, maybe a dollar less on the subscribe and save plan.

Thanks! I think that is what I paid, so probably I'll just stick with Amazon when I buy them in the future, then.

BTW, orange does not work for you.
Other pictures? There's more?

Oh redduck, I did not know you have such an insatiable appetite for self-punishment.

Happily there are two more pictures. If you are interested, you can enlarge the first picture, then to the very right of that photo there will be something that looks like an arrow, click the arrow and with a little luck, you will see a second picture. Then if you so desire, repeat the process and get the third photo. By the third photo, my appetite for self-punishment had been completely quenched.

I eat the quest bars pretty often when traveling and when I'm going to be out and about during lunch time. They fill me up pretty well. We've gotten into the habit of always taking an ice chest with a few bottles of water and maybe a soda for DW whenever we leave the house. We found that we were stopping here or there for fountain drinks all too often...we can afford them if we want them, but why spend extra on drinks when you can bring them along?

Try these from Costco. Similar to Quest, but 1/2 the price. They also come in a 20 box.

That does look like a good price, and the nutritional info looks similar. Thanks! I will think about getting these too, to see if I like them.
