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.

  • These cookies are great quality and a healthy alternative. I like the variety of flavors. The tote bag is adorable and a great way to help the environment while shopping. It is durable and fun to use.

  • Honestly tastes and looks like a chewy chips ahoy. Not bad but not great? Good option for those who have to restrict sugar!

  • Delicious cookies! I love that they’re lower in sugar and calories. I love that they offer a variety pack so I can try a little of everything and it makes lunches fun!

  • Excellent tasting bars. The variety packs are well worth trying. Each flavor has its own special taste to it. Highly recommend this brand.

  • I love it. Oddly it reminds me of Korean packaged cookies I had as a kid and it makes me feel really nostalgic. (i.e. Lotte Chic Choc) I like that it's a "better for you" option, and the single package of two cookies feels just enough. I like all of the flavor offerings, it's not too sweet, but sweet enough that hits the mark for me.

    I bought 3 boxes for $30, each box comes with 6 packages. Considering the price I think it's worth it, but might not be the price point for everyone?

  • ayyyy alexis as the model that's my old coworker guys #bookher but moving on i got a few boxes of these for free but just gave them to friends as they were not gluten free

  • Tried chocolate chip. They're small, pretty dry and lacked any real texture.

  • Really good cookies. Not too sweet

  • The taste was good, but not the best cookie I’ve had. It’s pretty much what I expected from something that is as healthy as these are. Healthy trumps taste in this case so I will be purchasing these again. I loved the colorful packaging and thought they’d be cute included in some get well gift baskets I’m making!

  • Definitely a healthier, low-sugar cookie...yet, the texture and taste were just "off". I do like that they are a good healthy alternative, but for the price...probably would not repurchase them.

  • Tried these at Expo West this year - VERY delicious!!!! Impressed to hear about the blood regulation aspect as well.

  • These taste like fig newton's that have been aerosolized and reformed in cookie molds. I guess they're ok, they definitely taste bran-ey and not sweet.

  • These were really good! They’re soft, chewy and very chocolatey. Perfect little treat for my evening sweet tooth

  • I’m a sucker for an almond flour cookie. I really like high key and Aldi‘s own brand of them. These are nice, but honestly, a detractor is the fact that they are impossible to find anywhere. I look at the store locator on their website and then try to go in person and they are not there.

  • Love the taste and the healthy ingredients

  • JoyDays Chocolate Chip Cookies are everything I’ve been looking for in a snack! They’re soft, chewy, and packed with rich chocolatey goodness, but without the sugar crash. It’s hard to believe they’re made with clean, better-for-you ingredients because they taste so indulgent. I love that they’re gluten-free and low in sugar, making them perfect for satisfying my sweet tooth while sticking to my health goals. These cookies are a new staple in my pantry for when I need a treat I can feel good about. If you’re looking for a healthier take on a classic favorite, JoyDays Chocolate Chip Cookies are a must-try. Highly recommend!

  • This is my second time trying out joydays. When I say they don’t disappoint I’m not joking. The flavor in these cookies is unlike any I have ever seen. Especially as someone who takes ozempic and suffers from IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) I can safely say I’m able to digest these cookies without discomfort.

  • Joydays is an amazing substitute for the cookies I usually purchase. The choc chip cookies didn't disappoint and the soft texture was appreciated. The fact that this was full of fiber and healthy nutrients is the cherry on top! Pricing is a little high, but definitely something worth splurging on.
