Addicted

by Brenda from SF Bay Area on 2009-09-22
I'm seriously addicted to these. The Chocolate Chip is amazing. The Choco Lot tastes a lot like a brownie, especially when a bit warm. I was concerned initially by the amount of xylitol (a sugar alcohol) as I'm sensitive to most sugar alcohols. And this has quite a bit (19gm). BUT one cookie doesn't seem to affect me - too much. Love that they have protein (8gm in a cookie?!?!?) and fiber (2gm). But mostly I'm hooked on the taste. I prefer chewy cookies (vs the crunchy kind) so this is perfect for me. AND it's vegan. (Whole Foods bakes a mega-yummy vegan chocolate chip cookie but I know it's packed with sugar, certainly more than the 10gm in a Kookie Karma.) The only suggestion I would make is to make them just a tad less sweet. Guilt free indulgence :-)


Karmic Nirvana - For Real

by M. Shutzer from San Francisco, CA on 2008-07-22
I'm a choc-a-holic, have been for many years. I'm also curious how chocolate is used in a variety of foods. The Choco Lot is the best cookie I've ever tasted! For real. My neighbor is a cookie maker of the highest quality and this beats ANYTHING I've tasted so far. Even my 8yr old nephew who only like mac & cheese and Chips Ahoy loves this cookie. I wouldn't dare tell him how healthy it is. It's a little packet of pure pleasure.

Chocolate in the Raw

by Amaranth from Northern California on 2009-01-21
Kookie Karma's Raw Carob Truffle is exquisitely delicious. It's as soft as cookie dough, yet as rich as pure chocolate (which,in a sense,it really is) Despite the fact it's dairy-free,the substitutes are agave and olive oil(!) It has the right balance of flavors. It puts to shame your average Chips Ahoy! The sweetness lingers in your mouth long after you've eaten it. Kookie has great karma!


YUMMY YUM YUM

by Vivian Kanchian from LOS ANGELES, CA on 2007-11-11
I reviewed these a few days ago, and my review disappeared!These are reallyreally good. Just like a truffle, only with carob substituting for chocolate (which I don't eat, among other things: dairy/ soy/ refined sugar). The "cookie" is super moist, just like a giant sized truffle in taste & texture. And the wonderful thing with this line I've noticed is that you don't have to think about the ingredients, because they use only the best (organic) and keep the list short. This recipe also incorporates olives & olive oil which I found worrisome when I picked up a couple for the first time. But it WORKS!Whole Foods stopped carrying this a week after I discovered them. Hope I can still get these on Amazon!!!!!
