About Cookie
A common processed snack, high in carbs and calories.
Health Benefits of Cookie
A carb-centred processed food
Biscuits are 73.0g carbs and 435 kcal per 100g, built mainly on refined flour and fat. Soda crackers are usually lower in fat than cookies and sandwich varieties, but carbs stay high and satiety lags behind whole grains at equal calories.
Watch sugar and saturated fat
Commercial biscuits often add sugar, margarine and shortening - ingredients that add calories and saturated fat. Filled and cookie types are typically higher in calories and fat than soda and digestive biscuits.
How to choose
Check the first three label ingredients: wholewheat flour beats white flour, vegetable oil beats shortening, low-sugar beats high-sugar. Eat 2-3 pieces (20-30g, ~80-130 kcal) as a snack, ideally with fruit or milk for balance.
