NEW ZEALAND HEART FOUNDATION TICK
Date+Apple Cookie
Health-conscious cookie fans are in for a treat, with the first ever sweet biscuit to get the Heart Foundation's Tick.
The Eat Right Date+Apple Cookie was the first product to successfully meet the Tick's tough nutrition criteria and gain entry into the Sweet Biscuits category.
Getting the Tick is no mean feat for a biscuit! Biscuit products have to meet rigorous guidelines for saturated fat, trans fat, sodium and energy (kilojoules). They also have to have a minimum level of dietary fibre in every serving, and are independently tested to guarantee every product meets the criteria.
With around half of Kiwis eating biscuits at least once a week (Source: NZ Food, NZ People. The Ministry of Health’s 1997 National Nutrition Survey), the Eat Right Date+Apple Cookie has the potential to give New Zealanders a healthier alternative.
Furthermore, the Eat Right Date+Apple Cookie not only tastes great, but is free of just about everything traditionally found in a biscuit. In fact, this unique cookie is also:
- Gluten and wheat free
- Dairy free
- Egg free
- Nut free
- Soy free
- Free of added refined sugar
- Made from certified organic ingredients
Ginger Cookie
Being the first cookie to receive both the Heart Tick and BioGro organic certification the Eatright Ginger Cookie really does have more benefits in every bite. It also has the lowest sugar content of any other Heart tick approved cookie and is gluten & wheat free, dairy free, egg & soy free, nut & peanut free. There are two pack sizes; a 300g 12 cookie pack and a single cookie 75g pack.
- Gluten and wheat free
- Dairy free
- Egg free
- Nut free
- Peanut free
- Soy free
- Free of added refined sugar
