In my Muscle Brownie review, I mentioned that I also bought a Complete Cookie to review as well. I think you already know where I'm going with this post, but I finally got around to trying it this weekend. The store I got them at only offered one type although they do sell more varieties online. I paid $1.49 for the cookie which is expensive for a single cookie but it's healthier than buying a box of chips ahoy and plus, it was a pretty big cookie.
The cookie smelled really good when I opened the package. It smelled fresh. I ripped off a piece to try. The texture was really soft and chewy, almost a bit doughy. It tasted like exactly like a thicker version of a subway cookie for the most part but there was a bit of an aftertaste that gave away the fact that it's a health cookie. It's not exactly a bad taste, it's just different. Maybe it was just the particular cookie I bought, but there weren't a ton of chocolate chunks in it. I would have like to have seen more in them.
Because the cookie is so big, the wrapper says that there are 2 servings per cookie, so don't get too carried away and eat the entire cookie because it'll cost you around 380 calories and 40+ carbs. I think it would be a better idea to split the cookie into two smaller ones to make the portions a little easier to control.
I still can't decide which I like better; the Muscle Brownie or the Complete Cookie. I took a second trip to buy some more and after trying both of them, I think I like them equally the same. It really just depends on what kind of mood I'm in. Or it may depend on how much money I have on me at the time and how much I feel like spending. After all, the cookie IS 50 cents cheaper than the Muscle Brownie.
If I had to compare both products to Quest bars, Quest bars will always win. Nothing can beat Quest. NOTHING. I haven't bought Quest Bars much lately because I've been trying to find other things to try for more of a variety. If I find anything I really like (or hate) I'll write more reviews in the future!
