What You Should Know

You'd spot this packaged sandwich cookie in the natural/health-food snack or gluten-free aisle, handy for grab-and-go treats or lunchbox add-ins. It gives a nostalgic, indulgent cookie vibe tempered by a health-forward marketing tone from oat flour, coconut sugar and prebiotic fiber. The smooth creme, uniform cookie texture, use of palm oil, powdered sugar, isolated fibers and 'natural flavors' are hallmarks of industrial reformulation and shelf-stable ultra-processing.

Common Questions about Oatmeal Creme Sandwich Cookie, 4.6 OZ

Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective, right? These cookies are made with gluten-free oat flour and organic ingredients, which is a plus for many. They do have some sugar from coconut nectar and dates, but in moderation, they can fit into a balanced diet — just don't expect them to replace your kale salad!
