Simple Mills, Cocoa Cashew Crème Sandwich Cookies - Gluten Free, Vegan (Pack of 1)

After many disappointing experiences buying gluten free foods, I took a chance on ordering cookies from Simple Mills. Boy, was I pleasantly surprised! These cookies are delicious! These remind me of Oreo cookies, only better. The chocolate cookie is a rich dark chocolate with a pleasing crunch. The cream filling is tasty and provides a lovely balance to the cookie. I don’t write that many reviews but I ran across a few extremely negative reviews of these cookies and I thought I needed to help clear up their apparent confusion: These cookies are made with cashews but they don’t taste like cashews. Those of us who are dairy free are aware that cashews (& other ingredients) are often used to provide a creamy texture. They are a healthier replacement for dairy than hydrogenated oils, for example. While the overall taste and texture is pleasing, don’t expect it to taste like nuts. This brand uses a mixture of gluten free flours in their cookies like watermelon seeds and nuts. Just because nuts or seeds are used, don’t assume the cookies will necessarily taste like nuts. Want to taste a cashew, eat an cashew. Want delicious gluten-free cookies? Try these ones from Simple Mills. Are these cookies expensive? Compared to mainstream cookies with gluten, dairy, soy, and other allergens I need to avoid, yes they are. The prices on Amazon seem to vary a lot and the package size is much smaller than non-gluten free cookies. The ingredients they use are also more expensive than mainstream brands. That’s to be expected. I do closely watch the pricing of the cookies and don’t buy them if the price is temporarily too high. However, gluten-free cookies always cost more than regular cookies. In summary, these are great cookies if you need to avoid gluten, dairy, and soy but don’t want to sacrifice flavor. I’ve also enjoyed their chocolate chip, chocolate thins, and pecan cookies but these are still my favorite. Yum!

I absolutely love these. They are gluten free, so I dont feel guilty about eating them and not bloated. Secondly, these have all natural ingredients, so I'm satisfied that I'm not eating artificial chemicals or preservatives. Lastly, these are tasty, unlike other cookies where the taste is compromised. I hope they bring out more varieties in these cookies.

Excellent cookies but watch the prices. I was on subscribe and save but it kept going up so much that it was less expensive to buy individual boxes on here. That's dumb when Amazon charges more per item for a larger quanity. Please get it together maybe learn from Walmart they seem to nearly always beat your prices anyway. I do love these cookies and they are fairly healthy for junk food just remember it's still junk food best to keep it to 2 cookies per serving or meal.

This brand is great and we love many of their products, but these “cookies” are very disappointing and not worth the calories. They smell like dog food and cardboard. Unfortunately there is no hint of cashew butter flavor in the product. As someone who often reads the reviews to decide whether or not to try a new product this is my warning to you to pass and look elsewhere for a “healthy” cookie.

Too sweet for me. OK now and then but too sweet for my taste buds b all organic but heck it's still kind of junk food

These are delicious definitely will purchase again

I love the healthy sentiment but damn, The aftertaste is kinda nasty. If you have a sweet tooth, these will cure it, while they do provide a quick fix for a sugar crave because the flavor itself isnt bad. Theres something missing that makes you want to eat another one, Which is a good thing? But also bad. Hence the 3 star rating. Not bad, but not great but i dont feel ripped off. Update. Im giving them 5 stars now. These are an AQUIRED taste. Kinda gross at first but for some reason I kept coming back throughout the day to eat another.

I eated the nutty cookies! They taste like burning. Seriously though, these taste like a kitchen fire. I usually love their cookies, but this one sucks.

I have picked up buy again, bought 2items...not only the 2boxes were more expensive but smaller in size!?
