Chocolate Brownie Protein Bar

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 5 ingredients to avoid

Quest Chocolate Brownie Protein Bar scores 14/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 15g fiber, 20g protein and 1g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Quest Chocolate Brownie Protein Bar lists 18 ingredients, starting with Protein Blend, Milk Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Isolate, Polidextrose and Prebiotic Fiber. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

170 kcal per serving, or 283 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Quest Chocolate Brownie Protein Bar on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 14/100 Quest Chocolate Brownie Protein Bar scores worse than most protein & snack bars we have scored. A higher-scoring option in protein & snack bars is Trader Joe's Apple + Mango Fruit Bar at 100/100.
