These been discussed yet? Almost identical to the quest bars at a significantly reduced cost. Costco has em in BR for 18$ for 20 bars. Quest are about 25 for 12 bars

Very similar to the quest bars. I think the Kirkland cookie dough actually taste better.

Hope they aren't adjusting the nutritional information like Quest did. But kirklands never fails to amaze me so I'm sure they're good.

There are several instances where Quest bars were sent to independent labs and the results showed their labeling to be accurate

I don't trust someone from kenner who puts the dollar sign after the number

Links?

I know their calculations of carbs and calories are based of the subtraction of dietary fiber which is also strange due to the use of IMOs but now they switched to a corn base syrup type fiber.

I would be concerned about the protein source.

Consumer labs was one off of the top of my head, but you have to pay to see their test results.

I'd bet these Kirkland bars come from the same co-packer, or at least Kirkland uses a co-packet quest use to.
