Sunny Select Chocolate Chunky Cookies are thick, chunky cookies made with a blend of enriched wheat flour, chocolate chips, and sweetened with high fructose corn syrup and added sugars.
The nutrition analysis reveals that each cookie contains 150 calories, 3.49g of saturated fat, and minimal fiber, indicating they are calorie-dense snacks with limited nutritional value. The presence of added sugars and artificial flavors suggests these cookies are more processed than minimally, as they rely on sugar syrups and colorants rather than natural ingredients.
Considering the processing level, the product appears to be ultra-processed due to its reliance on refined flours and multiple sugary additives. This makes it less healthy compared to whole or minimally processed foods.
In terms of health impact, frequent consumption could contribute to weight gain and may negatively affect blood sugar levels due to high glycemic index from added sugars. A healthier alternative would be a cookie made with whole grains, natural sugars, and minimal artificial ingredients, such as Nature's Path Organic Whole Wheat Chocolate Cookie.
