As an athlete, it's so important to hit my protein intake goals, but oftentimes, it's hard to get protein from "whole food sources", such as meat, eggs, dairy, etc. Sometimes, I need a convenient option to take on-the-go, and while I love protein bars, in the hot D.C. summer weather, those aren't always a realistic choice either, as they can melt in the sweltering sun. Quest Chips are a great savory alternative - this Loaded Taco bag comes packing a punch of flavor, tasting almost exactly like taco seasoning! The chips are also nice and crunchy and not overly grainy like some other protein chips out there. No, they don't taste exactly like a tortilla chip (hence the "tortilla-style" in the name) but they're the most similar replica I've found so far, which is ... MoreAs an athlete, it's so important to hit my protein intake goals, but oftentimes, it's hard to get protein from "whole food sources", such as meat, eggs, dairy, etc. Sometimes, I need a convenient option to take on-the-go, and while I love protein bars, in the hot D.C. summer weather, those aren't always a realistic choice either, as they can melt in the sweltering sun. Quest Chips are a great savory alternative - this Loaded Taco bag comes packing a punch of flavor, tasting almost exactly like taco seasoning! The chips are also nice and crunchy and not overly grainy like some other protein chips out there. No, they don't taste exactly like a tortilla chip (hence the "tortilla-style" in the name) but they're the most similar replica I've found so far, which is impressive given the fact that the main ingredient is a protein blend. For one bag, there's 140 calories, and a whopping 19 grams of protein! And with only 5g of fat and carbs per bag, the macros on these things are pretty unbeatable. Unlike their Quest bars, there's not an insane amount of added fiber through soluble corn fiber, which actually might make these more digestible for some people. The only knock that I have regarding this product is its high price point: you can get an 8-pack on the Quest website for $22.99, which comes out to around $2.87 a bag, which is pretty pricey. I've seen them on sale at other grocery stores for as cheap as $2/bag, and I think you can occasionally get them in larger packs/bags for less. Overall, this is a fun protein product, and certainly something that I would buy again in the future when it goes on sale!

Quest chips have been a huge help to me in my weight loss journey. Not only because they have significantly more protein in them than standard seasoned tortilla chips, but because the Loaded Taco flavor in particular tastes identical to the flavors of the food at Taco Bell. Having a bag of chips with 19 grams of protein and only 140 calories curbs my cravings for a meal from the fast food chain, which would have at least triple the amount of calories and probably half the amount of protein. While these are on the pricier side, I find they're completely worth it for the ease and availability alone. There are so many times where I need to meet my protein goal for the day but I'm either too tired to cook or not really that hungry. These are perfect for those times. ... MoreQuest chips have been a huge help to me in my weight loss journey.

There are so many times where I need to meet my protein goal for the day but I'm either too tired to cook or not really that hungry. These are perfect for those times. Goes great with a sandwich too. One tip for making them more affordable is to buy in bulk. That almost always brings the price per bag down lower than if you buy them individually. Certain stores sell them in a variety box with other flavors, like Nacho Cheese, which I also highly recommend.

They taste similar to Taco Bell hard shell tacos. They instantly remind me of this, they even carry the flavor of the crisp lettuce. They may even taste better because they have lime in the ingredients. There's no "off" protein flavor that I can tell. They're crunchy, though fragile, so expect more crumbs than most chips, however they taste perfect to me. The protein content is also very impressive with 18 grams from whey and milk protein at 140 calories. I would prefer to eat these over sweet protein bars most of the time, but bars are cheaper.

Game changing snack!

I loved, the flavor! I liked them so well they may even be better than Doritos in terms of taste!The texture was also wonderful! They didn’t leave a powdery or gritty residue in my mouth. There is also no unpleasant aftertaste or weird mouth sensation. They are pure crunchy enjoyment.Question Tortilla protein chips in loaded taco flavor delivers on taste, texture, and overall eat experience. Definitely a must try chip lovers looking to up their protein without the normal drawbacks!

Pretty Good, But There Are Better Flavors

These are my first time having these. I like to try all the different flavors out and then pick a top three! I like Quest chips as is because they have low net carbs, low fat and a good amount of protein.First chip: Tastes like grass. I was befuddled lmao.Second chip: Tasted like taco seasoning.Third chip started to taste like an actual taco with meat.So if you try the first chip and are confused; keep going, it gets better I promise lol.(Still not my top 3 though! Go try Chili Lime baby!)

VARIETY OF FLAVORS

I LOVE these QUEST protein chips. They are deliciously flavored and have the same texture as Doritos but are slightly thinner. The portion size per bag is small so sometimes I eat two bags in one sitting. These are available in multiple flavors so I have a variety to choose from when I am following a low-carb diet. My favorites are the Hot & Spicy and the Sour Cream and Onion. I recommend trying them all to determine your personal preference. They do not cause any unpleasant side effects as there are no sugar alcohols in them. In my opinion, these are one of the most perfect snacks. You can two bags at once without any guilt. I hope Netrition continues to offer the variety of flavors and any new flavors that QUEST decides to manufacture.

if you like chips, but are being healthy, get them

if you like chips like me, and junk food, but you're also trying to eat right. trying to eat more protein instead of more junk food. or if you are trying to get lots of protein in so you can gain muscle mass. these are for you.first I will say I have tried almost all the flavors in the brand and they are all very good, but by far this Taco one is the best.also, I promise you're going to like them so rather than buy four individual ones, you might as well just get the four pack which saved you about 50 to 60 centsthe reason I like these so much is because it tastes exactly like a taco. you can taste the lettuce, the sour cream, the taco shell, the meat, the cheese, everything.and with the 19 g of protein per bag, and only 140 calories per serving... it is so ... Moreif you like chips like me, and junk food, but you're also trying to eat right. trying to eat more protein instead of more junk food. or if you are trying to get lots of protein in so you can gain muscle mass. these are for you.first I will say I have tried almost all the flavors in the brand and they are all very good, but by far this Taco one is the best.also, I promise you're going to like them so rather than buy four individual ones, you might as well just get the four pack which saved you about 50 to 60 centsthe reason I like these so much is because it tastes exactly like a taco. you can taste the lettuce, the sour cream, the taco shell, the meat, the cheese, everything.and with the 19 g of protein per bag, and only 140 calories per serving... it is so good.I'm somebody who absolutely loves junk food but has been trying to make the switch to healthier choices and these have been really helping me get through it, as well as some other protein sweets that I recently found.give it a try guys. you will not be sorry I promise

loving this taco flavour. interesting. other flavours havent tried

this small pack is cheaper and more economic worth it. no change to the quality. just need to be mindful not to snack too much since it is not small pack arrangement. with the smaller packs, its easier not to think and just eat and not to worry about over eating. i would buy again if I have my weighing machine for cut. if I am not worrying about cutting my weight, I would just snack on this healthy snack. the ingredient is simple and looks decent. not too much other things. taste good, not too salty which is what I like. i don't like too heavy taste food.

may be the best chips I've ever had in my life

I am completely shocked that this is a chip. I don't have my teeth anymore so I love tortilla chips but I just can't eat them because I don't eat with my dentures and because my dentures are messed up. so I figured I'd try these to see if I could eat them and they are so light and crispy. but this flavor? you can literally taste everything that goes on a Taco down to the lettuce and sour cream. never have I had a taco flavored item that tasted so much like tacos. Lays couldn't even come close LOL.if you are thinking about trying it you really just need to try it because I promise you on everything you will not be sorry and you will become addicted just like me. there's a lot worse you could be eating though so these are great high-end protein and they fill you up ... MoreI am completely shocked that this is a chip.

so good

yum loves the taste of these it’s like they vaporized a whole taco & then injected it into a chip i straight up don’t understand how they did it. anyway i don’t do fitness training dieting or anything but i do workout at least once a week & i live a p busy lifestyle so i just think these things are great because it’s so very convenient to get that sizeable dose of protein in one quick snack. i believe the ingredients are high quality but idk enough about health to say otherwise really. the size of the package is the only aspect of these that leaves room for desire because 1 oz is cute & all & it’s way more nutritious than say doritos or potato chips would be in your diet ofc. however the issue with these is that they taste so good having just this small bag of them ... Moreyum loves the taste of these it’s like they vaporized a whole taco & then injected it into a chip i straight up don’t understand how they did it. anyway i don’t do fitness training dieting or anything but i do workout at least once a week & i live a p busy lifestyle so i just think these things are great because it’s so very convenient to get that sizeable dose of protein in one quick snack. i believe the ingredients are high quality but idk enough about health to say otherwise really. the size of the package is the only aspect of these that leaves room for desire because 1 oz is cute & all & it’s way more nutritious than say doritos or potato chips would be in your diet ofc. however the issue with these is that they taste so good having just this small bag of them kinda leaves you like hey…can i have something else. & they’re filling at that due to the protein it’s just not as satisfying in the mental way but hey i will just have to find other things to occupy my time than eating chips it’s a hard cross to bear but these are worth it. do yourself a favor try them
