Review: Quest Protein Cookies (Peanut Butter, Double Chocolate Chip)

I was craving cookies. 😂 Well, I wanted to at least have some cookies that are on the healthier side than actually eat a cookie filled with lots of sugar. Here I have Quest Protein Cookies in Peanut Butter and Double Chocolate Chip. I’ve never had these before. Here’s my review on them after getting to try them out! Let’s start off with the Peanut Butter flavor!

Quest Protein Cookie Peanut Butter:

• 220 calories per cookie
• 15 grams of protein
• 4 g of saturated fat
• 15 mg cholesterol
• 220 mg sodium
• 22 g of carbohydrates (12 g dietary fiber, 1 g sugar/0 g added sugars, 5 g erythritol)

Review on Peanut Butter:

I like the peanut butter flavor of this cookie. It does make me feel like I’m eating a real treat when I take a bite of it. But, there is a weird aftertaste to it that I didn’t enjoy. It’s still tolerable though due to the peanut butter flavor that overpowers it. So far, this is the only quest ‘protein product’ that I’m OK with. Would I buy it again? Maybe. Maybe not. I would have to think about it. It’s not too bad, to be honest.

Quest Protein Cookie Double Chocolate Chip:

• 240 calories per cookie
• 15 grams of protein
• 9 g of saturated fat
• 30 mg cholesterol
• 190 mg sodium
• 20 g of carbohydrates (10 g dietary fiber, <1 g sugar/0 g added sugars, 5 g erythritol)

Review on Double Chocolate Chip:

I thought I would like this flavor a lot more compared to the Peanut Butter, but I didn’t. The chocolate chips were good. I liked that part of the cookie. I just didn’t enjoy the taste of the cookie overall. It’s taking me a while to finish these cookies. I will though, lol. And they too had a weird aftertaste to them. The double chocolate chip flavor couldn’t cover up the odd aftertaste. Yuck. I wouldn’t purchase the Double Chocolate Chip flavor again. I’ll pass. I have an obsession with chocolate too, so this was a total bummer. 🙁

That’s my take on Quest Protein Cookies. Were they the best? No, not really. I still prefer vegan protein cookies. 🙂

OK to the Peanut Butter. NO to the Double Chocolate Chip. By the way, these cookies are really good at keeping me full. They’re pretty satisfying.

Organic Raw Apple Cider Vinegar in My Diet

I started taking Organic Raw Apple Cider Vinegar (again). I have the brand Bragg. It’s the one ‘with the mother’. You know, with the healthy stuff floating at the bottom of the bottle. I love this stuff. It’s great for a lot of things. Here are some of the benefits of organic raw apple cider vinegar with the mother. 🙂

• Skin (good for acne). You can use it as a facial toner or ingest it. I’m not a big fan of using it as a facial toner. The smell is nauseating. Also, for me, using it as a toner irritates my skin. It may work for some but not for me. Try it for yourself. Do a patch test first. I would much rather mix it in my tea or take it straight and be done with it. I’ve been mixing organic raw apple cider vinegar in my tea. 🙂
• Hair. Good for dandruff and general hair cleansing.
• Weight loss
• Digestion

Organic Raw Apple Cider Vinegar have other health benefits too.

• Lowering blood pressure
• Fights diabetes
• Good against cancer
• Lowers cholesterol

Organic Raw Apple Cider Vinegar brings back a lot of memories. I’ve been on and off of it throughout the years. Alright! An ACV a shot a day is all I need or two. 😁 Let’s see how this goes. I’ll report back after finishing a whole bottle of it. 😉
