Reviews mention

  • Low-glycemic formula, blood-sugar friendly
  • Soft-baked, chewy cookie texture
  • Colorful, eye-catching packaging
  • High-fiber, portion-controlled packs
  • Occasionally dry, cakey texture
  • Noticeable sweetener aftertaste
  • Small cookie size, scant quantity
  • Inconsistent, muted flavor intensity

Joydays earns largely positive reviews as a low-glycemic, low-sugar cookie that satisfies sweet cravings without spikes, with many comparing the soft-baked texture to Chewy Chips Ahoy and praising colorful packaging, generous chocolate chips, fiber, and portion-controlled packs. Reviews also flag downsides: frequent dryness or “healthy”/aftertaste notes, small cookie size, inconsistent texture, and polarizing flavors (notably peanut butter), making them a better-for-you alternative rather than a true classic cookie replacement.

  • The cookies were very dry. I purchased 2 boxes and before I could get To the second box the cookies had molded. Very disappointed for the price and paid.

  • These cookies were pretty good for how low in sugar they were. They do not taste like a regular cookie, but still taste good, they are just not as sweet. Thanks to thingtesting for giving me the opportunity to try for free!

  • These cookies weren't really my favorite BUT, I loved that my kids loved them! I would way rather give them a lower sugar cookie than the ones that are ususally filled with it and it's good for adequately avoiding a high sugar craving for me.

  • Didn’t love the texture and the taste was just okay. Not bad if you’re wanting a treat on the healthier side.

  • I wanted to like these because they were listed as low sugar and healthier. But the texture was spongy and there was a little bit of a strange taste.

  • A nice little treat! In my store I found it by the checkout aisle but I would rather it be in the snack aisle because I plan most of my groceries. But it tasted good and felt a little healthier than other choices.

  • These are great! They taste a lot like Chips Ahoy with way less sugar.

  • The Joydays cookies were in the health and wellness section, and I had trouble finding them since I looked at the gluten free and healthier for you cookie aisle in grocery first. I liked the taste of the cookie although I can tell this is not as sweet or tasty as others. It is a good compromise to enjoy when you want a cookie yet are also wanting to be mindful with a guilt-free snack!

  • Love the cookies. Less sugar and a great snack with a coffee or a tea.

  • they are good cookies, just too many calories to be worth the sweetness and 2-4 bits it takes to finish them, but i am also a bulk eater, the flavor on these are wonderful, especially the brownies, the PB was alright. GREAT PRICING.

  • Delicious cookie. Soft and chewy. My toddler always gets to pick a treat after dinner and he always picks these if they are available.
