Where to buy whonu cookies

Sugar in any amount is never good for a developing child, no matter the Iron content. Nutrition Rich Chocolate Cookies calories 7 g fat 1. WhoNu the food industry could stoop so low as to market sugary, high-carb treats as health food? You know what else has 4 grams of fiber and 20 vitamins and minerals? As do bananas, blueberries, grapes, nectarines, and dozens of other naturally sweet fruits that come without the refined flour and genetically modified ingredients found in these health-food wannabes.

My husband bought these cookies yesterday for the first time. They taste like chocolate cardboard. Having raised children and grandchildren, I have a solution to this problem; bake your own cookies! Invite them to pitch-in with the measuring and mixing.

Let them watch the cookies bake through the oven window, too. Fun to see all the posts from the WhoNu employees on this blog. Pure junk. We were amazed that any company could be so brazen about their product,. Would you feed your kid oreos or even homemade cookies? Empty calories are everywhere. Would you allow your child to eat anything that is not organic? Like government funded school lunches? Think about it. These cookies are almost dietary water soluble vitamins, do you give vitamins to your children?

Get them to exercise more to be healthy. My point was these cookies are marketed to be healthy, comparing them to blueberries, oatmeal and milk.

Sorry, but processed sugary cookies are not healthy, no matter how many vitamins they shove into them. Synthetic vitamins are not the same as whole foods like broccoli! I purchased this brand after seeing it on the aisle a few times and in my haste with naptime looming I purchased them. Thanks for putting the blog up! Thanks for getting the word out to those who are seeking more information, but my guess would be that those who take the time to research the topic have at least some regard for healthy eating habits.

The issue as I see it is that most people that buy a product like this never bother to look at the nutrition facts. This is a gimmicky empty food. The marketing tactics are just too misleading.

Definitely not a healthy alternative to oreos or chipsahoy but if you had the choice between the two, what would you eat? And there are plenty of similar comments. I believe that the cookies I eat are better for me than veggies because they contain nutrition of a glass of milk, oatmeal, and bowl of berries!

I am only kidding. I certainly hope that quote you posted is a marketing ploy from the company. If not, those people should be forced to surrender their children to the state.

The idea that someone would believe that a cookie is nutritionally equal to a veggie or any organic matter even if wrote on a box is laughable to myself. I respect your fact finding and believe that everyone should do the same and check the box of whatever they are buying.

However, I have a feeling some people may in the future buy packaged cookies for their children. This product MAY be the lesser of the evils in a sense. I feel that other companies should get the wag of the finger before Whonu?

People should live and eat smarter to live longer. Thank goodness for evolution, the people that turn their diet to cookies to live because of this box are holding down our human race and might be better off eating their way to a premature death. Thanks Joe! No such luck for a premature death. Its all visual with him, if he likes a food, it has to look the SAME way everytime.

Keep up the good work!!! Are Whonu cookies okay for me in moderation of course! Keep it up :D. Cookies that are good for me? When people equate cookies to a health food, we are goners. Its a cookie! Oreo used to be promoted then why not give then one with a as a great snack as well. Most people are smart and realize it IS still a processed sugary cookie. These things will make you crap like a goose. I am not a whonu employee but I figured they were regular cookies with vitamins and fiber thrown in for kids who need extra.

Well, I looked at the FB page and some people do indeed think these are healthy cookies. There are better choices you can make in cookies, though. Let me state, I really do like these cookies. If people think cookies can take the place of fruits and vegetables, we have some serious problems. Stay hungry, my friends. No one is suggesting that one go on a full diet of them, only that one eat them as a healthier snack than most other cookies. For me, I need fiber because of regularity issues.

Respectfully IMHO, if you are spending time worrying about what that amount might do to harm you, you need to have more meaningful things to busy yourself with.

These comments crack me up. AND consumers are believing their lies. Or maybe you think our nation is in a good place, healthwise??? Maybe YOU should get a grip!

I think you might ought to go back to their Facebook page and look again. They market them as nutrition rich cookies.

That said, if people opt to step off the plane of reason and try to replace a normal diet with them, well that is their prerogative. ANd what would it hurt for someone to replace oatmeal, blueberries or milk with these cookies? I almost never eat any of those things and I get along just fine.

Tim, if you have to ask that question, then there is nothing I can say to convince you otherwise. No Debbie, there is absolutely nothing that says that anyone needs blueberries, oatmeal or milk in their diet. It is silly to suggest that this serving would hurt anyone. You, on the other hand seem strangely obsessed with defending these cookies. Perhaps all that sugar is making you hyper. I completely agree with Tim. It is fairly obvious that they are marketed as a healthier alternative for some cookies, but a cookie is still a cookie.

No, they are cookies and cookies are bad period. Yes, according to the nutrition facts, they are. When it comes down to the wire, they are more nutritious then most other cookies and cheaper in price that may just be a local thing.

Now, there are even healthier cookies with more nutrition out there, very rare, that are an even better alternative and more people should be promoting those if they really want to support cookies,. You are honestly an idiot, sorry but there is no other way to say it. First of all, you cant even read the ingredients …they dont use white flour as you state, they use wheat.

Anyone who takes time to read the label and knows the ingredients would know that. Shannon, uh, wheat flour IS white flour. That would have really been the last straw. I am of a healthy weight for my height, and I enjoy my occasional short Oreo stack.

Naughton can lose 12 lbs. However, rather than eat simply empty calories, I have chosen to eat three of these to have some other benefit other than the taste. I consider them, as the box spells out: a slightly healthier alternative considering the circumstances.

Nowhere on this box does it claim you should eat the entire thing as a meal substitute. It, like many other foods, lists a portion size. America is a great place! The only reason I am commenting is because of the comment section; I found the author getting in to a insulting argument with a commenter a rather egregious error in being personable and promoting actual discussion, and I find it a reason to avoid this blog in the future.

First, yes, The advertisement is misleading. At the core of business capitalism is advertising, which includes competitive marketing, which is exactly what WhoNu engages in. WhoNu is not trying to replace fruits, vegetables, etc.

I am currently sitting next to a box of them purchased yesterday and the Nutritional Info has either been changed since this was originally posted, or the author of this article is spreading incorrect information to prove a point she clearly has no viable points about. So for those of you who love to jump on the bandwagon about what a horrible company WhoNu is, wake up and think before you speak. I took a look at their web site, and yep, they now have less calories because they made the cookies smaller.

Another good marketing ploy. I guess they fiddled with their super secret healthy recipe to reduce the calories and reduce the serving size too. These cookies taste awful. I had to use mouthwash to get rid of the horrible after taste, after just one cookie! These are a better alternative for treats than many other brands. Stick with fruit if it bothers you so much. Who Nu people could be so silly to think they would be getting nutrition from a cookie. Not a health food.

No different than the multi-gummybear- vitamin. I started giving my 15 month old these cookies after hearing she was low in iron and after having a couple myself i thought what a good treat for her. Josie goes to her dads every other weekend and a couple weeks ago she came back with a grab bag full of candy from a birthday party.

So God knows what he is giving her over there. The fact is, they may not be what they say they are. They may be smaller. If people are going to feed their kids three oreos, but feed them 3 of these, they are in fact eating 90 less calories. So they may not be as advertised, but they still have less calories.

I think a cookie is a cookie! If you are comparing eating one cookie against another. I think people are smart enough to know cookies are not healthy but want to know which one is the better option if you want to have a cookie. Now that being said they both taste good so which one is the better option? Neither should replace healthy food in your diet that is obvious. Not all people in the world are fat. Yes, these cookies are indeed nutritious.

I have a feeling that the vast majority of people out there are deficient in calcium and fiber in their diets. Most of our tasters thought they were about the same as Chips Ahoy. All those nutritional additives apparently didn't take away anything from the taste or texture.
