We all know one of those moms. You know, the ones who bake absolutely everything from scratch? While I’m sure we’ve all done our fair share of baking, there are times when we’re going to buy store-bought snacks for our kids. And for those times, isn’t it great to know that there’s actually a brand out there using the same kind of tricks – like adding in a touch of vegetable purée – to make great tasting snacks for our little darlings?
Mr. Christie’s Snak Paks Soft Baked Cookies fit this bill perfectly. Part of the Kraft Sensible Solution product lineup, all three flavours of these cookies are a source of fibre and iron, are low in saturated fat and have zero trans fat. They’ve got no artificial flavours or colours and each of them has a touch of vegetable purée to help make the cookies soft. And on top of all this goodness, they’re made in a peanut-free facility (each individual bag sports the peanut-free flash) so they’re safe to pack in school lunches.
But what you really want to know is, do Mr. Christie’s Snak Paks Soft Baked Cookies taste good? Well, 25 of our Go2Girlz panel of product testers were recently treated to a box of each of the three flavours:
- Double Chocolate
- Oatmeal Chocolate Chip
- Oatmeal Cinnamon
The Go2Girlz tested the cookies with their families and the verdict is unanimous: every one of our testers loved the cookies, would recommend them to a friend and would buy them again. In fact, several of our testers reported that their kids ate the cookies up so quickly that they had already purchased more. According to the Go2Girlz, the most kid-friendly features of Mr. Christie’s Snak Paks Soft Baked Cookies are the nutritional features, their portion size and the soft texture. Kids love the soft, small cookies that they can gobble up in two or three bites, and moms appreciate the portion-controlled bags and added vegetable purée.
Additional key features that stood out for our testers are that the packages are labeled with Diabetic Exchange list information, and that Kraft Canada has partnered with TerraCycle to bring their upcycling program to Canada so that used Mr. Christie’s Snak Paks pouches can be collected and upcycled into fun items such as backpacks, pencil cases and yoga totes.

But it’s always best to hear from the testers directly, so here’s what the Go2Girlz had to say about Mr. Christie’s Snak Paks Soft Baked Cookies:

We just loved these moist cookies/ They were full of flavor and not too sweet. The single serve package was great for my husband and teenage daughter for lunches. We will definitely be buying these again and I have also recommended them to my friends!
unfortunately I have no time to bake any more. Would love to try these!
My family loves these cookies especially double chocolate and chips and good thing is that we can carry to offices and packed in lunch for kids. It is very nutritious for everyone and it can use as snacks also.
i so happy now i could eat some cookies mr christies snak paks no peanust free they should make more
These were great! I loved the fact that they were certified peanut free so my son co uld take them in school lunches…sorta messy for my youngest (1 1/2) but that wouldnt stop me from buying them again! I give them a thumbs up for sure!!
We love this product. They’re moist and tasty.. I especially like the individual pkgs and they’re kosher and peanut free. We now buy them all the time and my daughter can take them to school.
I got my kids a box of these and before i knew it i had to buy a few more. not only did my kids love them but my husband and his friends also had to have their fix. I couldnt get over how yummie they were and how easy they were to eat, i have a lot of broken teeth so anything harder then baby food usually hurts and these were amazing. my family has now had two boxes of every kind and still wanting more!! best of all, my kids have found something they not only love but are allowed to take to school
My kids loved these.
We love these cookies!! I dont like the hard ones at all but these were great and the perfect size for school snacks or just a snack on the go
I received the $1 off coupon, rushed out and purchased a box! I arrived home at 2:30 pm with my groceries, my daughter’s school let’s out shortly after 3pm, and my daughter gets home by 340pm…..by 405pm the box was empty!!! Totally devoured!!! I suppose they were yummy?! All I know is I didn’t get to taste them!
I love these cookies…the usual hard cookies don’t appeal to me at all. but Soft-
Baked are so much like home-made and I found to be tastier.
Any cookie around here will do, but I had to hide these!
Great cookies. My kids love them. I love that they are in single serving packages which are great for lunches.
We love the soft baked cookies! What a great product. I’m so impressed with the portion size, ingredients and taste. Can’t wait to see what other new great products Mr. Christie has in store for us!
Our family loved, loved, loved these cookies! I had to say I was a bit a skeptical as there was the added puree in them and my kids always seem to know when I sneak anything new into my baking! But all 4 of them loved the taste and how soft the cookies were!
This is a great product! My kids think they are delicious and they have become my favorite after the gym snack! They are a snack my kids are always asking for and that I feel good about giving them. It is a healthy choice that is filled with vegetable puree instead of fat to keep them nice and soft! Great idea! They have no artificial colors or flavors and they have fiber and calcium. My favorite flavor is the double chocolate although I think it should be called cookie dough instead.
I absolutly love this product! Not only is it delicious but it is also healthy! My kids love it and I feel good giving it to them. I know they are made with real ingrediants and instead of filling them with fat and junk to keep them soft they filled them with vegtable puree! They taste just like a regular cookie only BETTER! I love that they have no artifical colours or flavors in them and they have protein and fiber!
I was one of the fortuneate mothers to receive this package, and my kids and I loved them! All flavours were excellent, this was an awesome opportunity.
These sound great! Always looking for new peanut free options!
My kids love them and I had to hide the cookies from them.
my kids just loved the Mr, christie cookie so much that i went out and bought some more and all my 4 year old could say was thanks mom i love the fact they are soft and bite sized they are great to add to there lunchs at school and i really love the idea that it says it is peanut free which is a big deal at there school i went shopping and found the price was not bad at all i would totally recommend this product to anyone i have started all ready the product was really good and wonderful for those that have a fussy eater
My kids love the Mr. Christie Soft Baked Cookies. I was at the grocery store yesterday and saw the cookies for the first time. I purchase both the oatmeal and chocolate chocolate chip. My 7 year old loves soft cookies so I knew that they would be a hit. As a parent who is concerned about the calories that my girls consume I was so happy to see that the cookies were portioned and packaged and contained only 130 calories. Both my girls chose them for their morning and afternoon recess snacks today. Just as I expected they were a hit; they loved both the oatmeal and chocolate!
Love the snack size, easy to pack in a lunch or keep in my purse for afterschool snack. Taste Great!
favorite: double chocolate, followed by oatmeal chocolate chip! the package sizing was great and I really liked the size and texture of the cookies for the baby’s hand, just a nice size for snacking without making a mess (not to mention the healthy ingredients). we will be looking forward to seeing these appear on grocery store shelves. thanks Mr. Christie for another great product:)
Everyone in my family loves these biscuits!!!! and I love them because they are peanut free!!! and in portion control size baggies!!! will definently be buying these again!!!
My girls loved them as well great product
I was one of those mom’s having to hide the box to prevent instant gobbling up of all the cookies AND I also sneaked a couple bags of the Cinnamon ones for myself!! I loved the taste and the portion sizes. A great product!
A nice new addition for the lunch boxes or snack time. The whole family loves them – the favourite being Oatmeal Chocolate Chip.
These are one of our favourite snacks in my family. My personal favourite is Double Chocolate – they didn’t taste at all like a supplement bar or vitamin to me – they are delicious and I take them in my lunch nearly every day. My older daughter adores the Oatmeal Cinnamon flavour and my younger daughter is a huge fan of the Oatmeal Chocolate flavour, so these are a winner all around. Easy to grab in a hurry; made with wholesome ingredients, peanut free and portion controlled: can’t ask for much more in a snack!
Just like everyone reports, these Soft Baked Cookies flew out of the kitchen quickly! A group of girls came over to our house to play after school and devoured them instantly. According to the girls, both Oatmeal Chocolate Chip and Double Chocolate get a double thumb’s up while Oatmeal Cinnamon just gets a sideways thumb. I can’t deny that Oatmeal Chocolate Chip was the best and tasted slightly sweeter than the rest. But I would have to warn you, the Double Chocolate tasted more like a vitamin or supplement bar. In spite of that, I will definitely be buying the kid’s favorites in the future!
My son loved this cookies, I loved the convenient packaging. The price point is a little high and the 6 packages per box is odd for lunches. Overall a great new product for lunch snacks or anytime at home snacking.
We all thought they were so yummy, loved the fact they were peanut free so they could be brought to school. Would definately buy again
Okay, my daughter, who is only twelve and a pretty picky eater, devoured two bags of the Snak Paks. She only ate the chocolate, but I think it says a lot about the quality of the cookies.
