Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Chick-fil-A Chocolate Chunk Cookie falls significantly short of the cleaner food options we advocate for on our website. This cookie is not organic and it is not made with non-GMO ingredients, which are two critical factors in our evaluation process. Additionally, the presence of added sugars, such as molasses, further detracts from its score.

The product contains several ingredients that raise concerns. Specifically, it includes palm oil, which is not only potentially harmful to health but also has significant environmental implications due to the deforestation and habitat destruction associated with its production. The presence of artificial vanilla flavor and soy lecithin, which we classify as potentially harmful additives, also contribute to the low rating.

Moreover, the wheat flour, chocolate chunks, and other components do not come from organic sources, which is another factor that impacts the cookie’s score. The use of both milk and semi-sweet chocolate chunks introduces additional sugar into the recipe, compounding the issue of high sugar content. The inclusion of invert syrup and butter, although common in baked goods, does not align with our criteria for cleaner food options.

The Chick-fil-A Chocolate Chunk Cookie exemplifies the type of product our website aims to steer consumers away from. It is a product that contains multiple non-organic ingredients, added sugars, and questionable additives, and it relies on palm oil, a choice that carries environmental and health concerns. This cookie receives our lowest possible green leaf rating, reflecting our position that consumers should look for healthier, more sustainable, and cleaner food alternatives.
