![]() ![]() Maybe it’s the foil wrapping or the ideal peanut butter to chocolate ratio, but these mini cups are very enjoyable.Įverything I said about the full-sized cups still holds true for the mini cups, and there is definitely an artificial flavor present, but the overall flavor is really good. More recently, Quest released Mini Peanut Butter Cups, and I’m not sure what it is exactly, but these remind me more of Reese’s than the full-sized cups. Ditch the spoon and bowl, take the cereal to go. Whether youre sitting on the couch, driving in your car, at your computer desk or on the move, The Crunch Cup allows you to enjoy your cereal anywhere. There’s a slight bitterness in the aftertaste (due to the low-carb nature) that I can see being off-putting for some, but it’s not enough to prevent me from enjoying these as a snack. Now you can take your cereal on-the-go with this dual-chambered, reusable, dishwasher safe tumbler made of durable, BPA-free Tritan. ![]() Overall, there is great peanut butter and chocolate flavor, but it’s noticeably different than Reese’s, and the artificial flavor really comes through. That flavor doesn’t bother me at this point, but if you’re sensitive to that “artificial” taste, then you may not like these peanut butter cups. You can definitely taste the sugar substitute in these Quest Cups, too. But it doesn’t eat quite the same way as a Reese’s Cup.īut, with all that being said, Quest Cups are identical in size to Reese’s and eat very much like any other “healthy” peanut butter cups you may have come across at the store.įLAVOR REVIEW: ONE Bar Strawberry Shortcake Now, that’s not to say it’s a bad thing: everybody loves peanut butter. Because of this lack of sugar, the filling is mostly just regular peanut butter. Reese’s cups make their filling by combining peanut butter with powdered sugar, which is obviously not what Quest is going to do with a low-carb snack. However, it’s a little bit disappointing to find the peanut butter filling to be on the creamy side. Reese’s Cups are obviously famous for their delicious peanut butter filling, so I would never expect a healthier alternative to be a spot-on replica of that (although, my homemade protein peanut butter cups are surprisingly close). While the chocolate may not be too noticeably different for you, the peanut butter filling is where you can really tell the difference. The thickness is not enough to make it unpleasant, but it does eat slightly different than a regular Reese’s. The chocolate exterior is a bit thicker than a regular Reese’s Cup, and it doesn’t melt in your mouth quite the same way. Once you bite into these peanut butter cups, the differences become apparent. The chocolate is a little bit darker, but if you compare these to the dark chocolate Reese’s, they are almost indistinguishable. ![]() The chocolate coating is soft and almost melts in your melt, and the peanut butter filling is chalky yet still very moist.īased on looks alone, Quest Peanut Butter Cups are incredibly similar to Reese’s Cups. This isn’t exactly healthy though with sugar being the second ingredient.Quest Peanut Butter Cups Texture vs Reese’s Cupsįirst things first, Reese’s Cups have a very distinct texture to them. The high fat and calorie content is coming from the seeds, nuts and coconut. That’s a decent amount of protein in a half cup serving! It is high in fat and calories though. This is a simple granola so can be enjoyed on fruit, with yogurt, on oatmeal or by the handful plain.Ī 1/2 cup serving is 260 calories, 14 grams of fat, 31 grams of carbohydrates, six grams of fibre, eight grams of sugar, six grams of protein and 96 mg of sodium. The best before date is about 11 months from the date we purchased the granola. The bag reseals which I totally appreciate. This is really reasonable for a pretty big bag of granola. I paid $9.99 Canadian for the 907 gram bag of granola. I’m a huge granola fan so I picked this up to try and review. You can find this in the cereal aisle at Costco near the other granola and cereals. Today I’m reviewing the Costco Prana Organic Granolove Oatmeal Cookie Crunch.
