Aaah summer! Glorious summer. One of the things I love most about this fleeting season is summer vacation. It’s no secret I love to travel. In fact I’m still shaking off some serious jet lag since returning from Greece/Dubai early this morning.
Trips and adventures go hand in hand with good food and snacks. Who doesn’t set off on a travel adventure or road trip without a stockpile of snacks? I’m not alone in this, am I? The real challenge with travel snacks is finding ones that not only taste great but aren’t total empty calorie junk. Who wants to blow up a healthy diet with poor snack choices?
I’ve shared my love for Quest Bars as well as the new Quest Hero Bars in the past. Both are family favorites in this house. Now Quest has done it again. They’ve created another delicious bar that’s perfect for on-the-go snacking and it has a nutritional profile that’s pretty impressive too.
Meet Quest Cereal Protein Bars
Great tasting, highly portable, melt-proof snacks that have it all going on: Crispy, crunchy, chewy and sweet. You’ll want to throw a bunch of these in your travel bag and guess what?
They’re available now at your local 7 Eleven store so it’s easier than ever to pick some up when you hit the road.
Choose from Chocolate, Cinnamon Roll and Waffle Flavors
Of course I’m a chocolate fan but my kids? Not always. The cinnamon roll and waffle flavors are so delicious and fantastic as an on-the-go breakfast or morning snack at camp.
Imagine a luscious, syrup covered waffle. With icing! And no guilt!!
Quest Cereal Protein Bars offer more than great taste:
- 12 grams of satisfying protein
- Gluten Free
- 3g or less net carbs
- 6-7g fiber
- Only 8g sugar and 110 calories per bar
How can Quest Cereal Protein Bars taste deliciously sweet with only 8g sugar and 110 calories? The secret is allulose. A rare natural sugar found in fruits like figs and raisins. It has all the deliciousness of ordinary sugar but it’s virtually calorie free.

I couldn’t think of a 7-11 nearby! I love that Quest came out with a breakfast protein bar.

Ooh – I need to try the new bars from quest! I haven’t tried the hero bars yet either. These look really good! Who doesn’t love a breakfast on the go!
Zenaida says
The chocolate is my favorite!
Meranda@Fairytalesandfitness says
I always thought Quest protein bars were only So-So and never got what all the hype was about but I do bet these cereal bars are much better since it seems like they have more substance to them.
Coming back from a long trip like that is the worse. It’s like you need a vacation from your vacation!
Coco says
Those look great. I need more bars in that calorie range to tide me over without ruining my appetite for my dinner!
Janelle @ Run With No Regrets says
Okay, these look pretty interesting! Love the high protein content and the flavors look interesting! I may have to check these out…
Anna @ Piper's Run says
I’m pretty sure i’d love the cinnamon bun bar!
Rachel says
I haven’t tried the quest cereal bars but I’m a cereal bar junkie. Almost to a fault. Sometimes they’re just too easy!
Lesley says
I was sent a box of the Clif Bar coconut almond butter bars. The almond butter is inside the coconut shell, and I like that they’re not as heavy as traditional Clif Bars can be. It’s lighter, and I like the flavor combo.
Katie Shepherd says
Quest bars are hard to find down here!! Would love to try those! Hope you had a wonderful trip! I enjoyed all of your pictures!
Mary BEth Jackson says
I can’t travel unless I have snacks! These look like good ones and the 7-11 is super easy to find down here! Welcome back!
Sherry says
I haven’t tried these yet but they sound good. Sounds like a nice and easy breakfast or snack if we’re on the go for the kiddos.
Karen Bayne says
You can’t go wrong with icing 😉
110 calories is perfect since i am on the menopause restriction plan lol even though I didn’t volunteer for it 😉
The Accidental Marathoner says
These look like a yummy start to the morning! I pass a 7-11 on my way to work each morning…think I’ll be making a pitstop tomorrow!
Teresa says
I love all things Quest! Well …except their chips. Those things were a terrible idea! But everything else they’ve made is delicious and I’m still working on a huge canister of their salted caramel protein powder! Yummy 🙂
Renée says
no quest bars here unfortunately. maybe I’ll pick some up when I’m in Chicago in October!
Adventures: Dublin for the RnR Half and a day after I get back we’re off to Turkey for 9 days in the sun!!!
Angela @marathonsandmotivation.com says
I am loving these cereal bars! High protein & low calorie is my favorite part, the flavors are ALL SO Great too!! 🙂
Kathryn @ Dancing to Running says
These look like a great bar to have on hand, especially when traveling. I’ll have to be on the lookout for them so that I can try them out.
Sarah @ The Fit Niche says
