THEY WERE GREAT COOKIES

These cookies are delicious. Expensive? Absolutely. But DELICIOUS. No, they do not taste EXACTLY like an Oreo. But they are VERY good. Everyone in my house, even those people that can eat oreos still, LOVED them. I am a celiac on keto and let me tell you these things are going on my "can't live without not sure how I did before" list. I just came back and bought a variety pack of cookies and cereal. If the rest of them are as good as this, I am delighted for life. Give them a try. They are expensive, but that's probably a good thing or I would buy lots and eat lots and probably find a way to get fat again even on these low carbs!

Let's start with the not so good. - Tastes artificial - A little bit dry - Not cheap - Not a diet food How about the good stuff? - You are eating a cookie that is a keto replacement for an Oreo, of course it should taste artificial - I eat my cookies with coffee and it's just fine - It's a sad fact of keto life, you are paying almost double for everything - Hmm, you should not be eating a keto oreo if you are trying to diet Bottom line. It's an enjoyable kind of keto friendly replacement given that you are being realistic with your expectations. If you want an oreo, eat an oreo. If you want something that tastes like an oreo with less carbs, then this is the right choice for you. I call this "kind of keto friendly" because it's not exactly helping you in your 60% fat content goal. But its perfect as a snack you can eat (in moderation, as in maybe eat two cookies) to satisfy your craving for something that is about 50% similar to an oreo.

The price tag is high on these, but most "healthy" options to our favorite snacks are. I guess it's to be expected. I'll start by saying that the taste is not bad at all. They do have a sweet taste somewhat similar to oreos. However they tend to leave a negative after-taste, and you can't "dip" these at all. They don't "get soggy" and soak up the milk like normal oreos. with only 4 protein per serving & only 40 less calories per serving than a normal oreo... you would be better off to invest in a protein shake & then eat 2 real oreos after. However for the die-hard healthy snack people... these aren't bad. They're just grossly overpriced for what you get in my opinion.

The cookies seem a little smaller than Oreos, but the taste is pretty close and they smell great. In my first picture you can see how the cookies are packaged inside the box and in the second you can get an idea of the size by comparison to a key. The size is important because some Keto products are incredibly small and not worth the price and you often cannot tell unless someone reivewed it or until you buy it. This is one of the best tasting Keto products I've tried. Like all specialty Keto products it is a little expensive, but this one seems more worth the price. Because they taste so good, like regular cookies, you need to be careful to just have one serving or less so that you don't eat too many at one time. As long as the second box is as fresh as the first one, then I will order this again sometime.

Normally, the cookies are good, but the batch they sent me was old and stale. I ordered four boxes, and although the boxes looked fine on the outside, the cookies inside were ruined. It seems they were mishandled at the warehouse and tasted like they were found on a back shelf. Plus, they were twice the price of our local store. I only bought these because they were sold out everywhere else. Update: I tried a couple from each box. They all had a horrible taste and were inedible. I got 4 boxes and cannot eat any of them, complete waste of almost $50.

These have no nut flour base, which is excellent because almost all keto snacks do, and if you have histamine intolerance, that can become a problem (consuming all those nut-based products). Actually, they taste good. Nothing competes with the original Oreo for taste, but these taste very good. I think the first ingredient is palm oil, which bothered me until I realized that it's likely the white center that's accounting for all of that oil. In the original Oreos, I used to take that part out anyway. However, because these are pricey, I am eating the entire cookie and doing so maybe four at a time and hopefully not every day! :) Note, these do stick in your teeth quite a bit, which may not be a problem for some, but bothered me a little. It's stickier than most products that stick in your teeth... not like toffee but not too far off. Yes, I would purchase these again. Amazon delivered a day early too! Thanks!

So, if you can just eat 2 cookies at a time, you may survive and possibly enjoy the snack. Now, don’t get me wrong, they taste good, but let me tell you how this quickly punishes you if you have a gluttonous episode. My wife saw a TikTok clip which showed a girl having severe gas after eating these. I didn’t believe it because I ate these a few times at a pace of two cookies at a time. Last night I found out the truth. Any more than 3 cookies and stand by for the most painful stomach ache you have ever had. Bloating nausea, uncontrollable gas, and much more. 8 hours later….. I am shooting everything out my pooper like a fire hydrant, and not really the way I wanted to lose weight. But I’m looking in the bright side. I’ve lost about 7 lbs today and only have 5 more to reach my goal. Contemplating eating another four and getting this weight loss journey done and over with. Yeah, definitely not doing that 😅

These are absolutely brilliant, I actually prefer them to Oreos believe it or not, once you live the keto lifestyle your taste for sugar changes. These are not really like oreos although they look similar they are more like a biscuit texture, but you soon get used to them. The price is quite ridiculous, but I'm willing to pay the price if it means having more keto options, you'll need to limit yourself on these though as going over 2-4 will probably throw your macros off.

There is a cookies missing 😩 normally I wouldn’t complain but these are quite expensive
