Nabisco SnackWells Fudge Petites


I would say its a fad but it seems like its here to stay. I'm talking about these 100 calorie snack packs that are everywhere. I guess people need these designated little bags with pre-portioned food as we can't control ourselves with a big bag or box of cookies or chips. These Snack Wells Fudge Petites from Nabisco are no different. 100 calorie packs of fudge shortbread cookies. But I'm not here to rant about this 100 calorie debacle but rather tell you, my non-existent readers, how good they taste!

 Like I just said, I bought the fudge shortbread or fudge petites version of these Nabisco SnackWells although they offer many different flavors including other various chocolate desert snacks and caramel ones as well. Now taste wise these fudge petite SnackWells were very good. The shortbread part was not too dry or crumbly to me (although they were to my girlfriend) and I felt the fudge part was very good despite there not seeming to be enough to make a good flavor. My only real issue with these SnackWells fudge petites and it's not really a complaint specific to these fudge shortbread cookies but rather all 100 calorie snacks. I felt like I got nothing! Call me whatever but one bag is just not enough for me... I guess that is why we pre-portion snacks into 100 calorie pseudo healthy bags is so people like me won't eat a whole chip bag of these fudge shortbread cookies.
