Lenny & Larry's Complete Cookie Chocolate Chip
Summary
Lenny & Larry's Complete Cookie Chocolate Chip scores 15/100. Despite marketing as a health-conscious protein cookie (16g plant-based protein, vegan), the ingredient list reveals ultra-processed food. Starts with enriched wheat flour with synthetic vitamins. Protein comes from vital wheat gluten, pea protein, and rice protein isolates. Multiple sugar sources: cane sugar, invert sugar, dextrose. Palm fruit oil, canola lecithin (seed oil derivative), natural flavor, vegetable glycerine, xanthan gum, and guar gum. 22g added sugars per cookie (44% DV) and 440 calories.
