Chips Ahoy - CHEWY

So this is my first cookie for review as "COOKIE CRUNCHER":

"LET THE RATING BEGIN!"

My first cookie will be:

CHIPS AHOY! CHEWY

(in the red bag) by NABISCO

The average rating that this cookie gets is:

"2.5 COOKIE KISSES"

Here are the details:

VALUE = 3 COOKIE KISSES *** - Regular priced these cookies are $4.49 + tax. Despite the fact that they come in a handy "Easy Pull - Snack n' Seal" container designed to keep my cookies fresh for eating later...I think the value to quality ratio isn't all that great. Over-priced? I think so...There were 32 cookies in the package, BUT, I was sad when I peeled back the tab to find these cookies were pretty small. (see my photo above)

PACKAGING = 3 COOKIE KISSES *** - The RED color did grab my eye, and the handy "Snack n' Seal" tab was a nice touch. I didn't have to take them out and put them in a container to keep them fresh....and there wasn't an over-abundance of plastic or paper waste...I give the packaging a 5 (standard) for eco-aware packaging. I will say that I found one of the printed statements on the bag to be quite humorous....right on the front it says "REAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES." What exactly should I take that to mean on a bag of chocolate chip cookies??? "REAL" vs. the FAKE ones that you can buy???? Makes you wonder!!!!

GIVING BACK = 0 COOKIE KISSES! (boo! hissss!) I went to Nabisco's website and took a look around and didn't see that they are actively involved in any sort of "GIVING BACK" promotions right now...and for that I will dock them! There are so many easy ways for big corporate America to lend a helping hand.

TASTE = 3 COOKIE KISSES *** - These are average. The chocolate was good, but I'm not so sure that the word "CHEWY" was well represented....I think these were more "SOFT" than chewy. But over all the taste was what I expected.

NOTES: These aren't what I would call a MILK COOKIE. I don't think it would be the kind of cookie that you would "dunk" either...I think if you dunked these, they would turn into "goo." I enjoyed mine with a COKE...but any soda would do!

COOKIE ON!
