What You Should Know

You'd spot these in the supermarket cookie aisle or tucked in a lunchbox — a nostalgic, slightly 'better-for-you' branded take on classic creme sandwich cookies that still reads as indulgent. The ingredient list (refined flour and sugars, industrial oils, emulsifier and 'natural flavor') and the uniform crisp-and-cream texture point to ultra-processed manufacturing and shelf-stable formulation (NOVA 4).
