What You Should Know

You'd spot these single-serve chocolate breakfast biscuits in the breakfast aisle or the grab-and-go snack shelf, tossed into a lunchbox or grabbed with morning coffee. They feel comforting and slightly indulgent, but the refined flour blend, added cane sugar and palm oil, emulsifier/natural flavors and added vitamins signal ultra-processed manufacturing—expect a uniform crisp texture, long shelf life and flavor enhancers typical of NOVA 4 items.

The Chocolate Breakfast Biscuit can be a fun addition to your morning routine, especially if you’re looking for a quick treat. With 200 calories and a mix of whole ingredients like oats and flax seed meal, it offers a bit of fiber and protein. However, what’s considered 'healthy' really depends on your overall diet and lifestyle, so think of it as an occasional indulgence rather than a health food.
