Quaker Breakfast Cookies Oatmeal Chocolate Chip, 6-Count Boxes (Pack of 6)
I was shocked to read the nutritional facts on this product. Each 1.69oz cookie has 180 calories, 50 of them from fat! 6 grams total fat and 2 of those are saturated fat. Add to that 5 mg of cholesterol AND the 190 mg of sodium. Whatever benefit one might get from the whole grain oats seems diminished by the rest of the ingredients.
Yes, the price was good and they taste OK but certainly not what I was hoping for when I saw “baked, made with whole grain oats, good source of fiber, and 0g transfat”. These are not for the health conscious.

I originally found these in a supermarket when I was looking for an alternative to breakfast cereal. The market quit carrying them, so I order them from Amazon. They are a favorite with the young children of a friend.
I am surprised that anyone would be shocked by fat content. They contain chocolate. I would also note that people require a balance in their diets that includes some amount of fat and sodium. When I got carried away with a low sodium diet, I started having muscle cramps – my physical therapist said it sounded like a sodium deficiency – adding some salt back into my diet got rid of the cramps.
I have found that these are good for a quick snack, or for a breakfast addition in liew of cereal or toast. I sometimes eat one along with a serving of yogurt and some juice.

I have a sweet tooth the size of an island, so I have to go for “not as bad” rather than healthy and this fits the bill perfectly! Great tasting and this price is cheaper than I can find in my local grocery store.

These are the most delicious oatmeal chocolate chip cookies!! They come in microwave safe packages. Open the cookie wrapper and stick in the microwave for 10 seconds and it tastes like a freshly baked cookie. Be careful, at 180 calories per cookie – an average calorie count, you could eat too many at one sitting. I use this as a reward or breakfast.
