❓Are butter cookies bad for you?
Not all butter cookies are created equal. It depends on the ingredients, how they're made, and how often you eat them. Some are packed with additives and trans fats, while others use clean, simple ingredients—like Lowrey Butter Cookies made with 42% New Zealand cultured butter.
Let’s break it down:
🍪 The Truth About Butter Cookies:
It’s not “butter cookies” that are bad. It’s what’s in them.
✅ Butter cookies made right can be:
-
Rich in natural fats: Butter (especially cultured butter) is a real food—high in flavour and satiety, without artificial fillers.
-
Free from junk: Clean-label cookies skip the palm oil, preservatives, and margarine that many factory-made cookies use.
-
Portion-friendly: A few cookies with coffee or tea won’t derail your health—especially when they’re not loaded with chemicals or excess sugar.
⚠️ What to Watch Out For:
Some mass-produced “butter cookies” may contain:
-
Hydrogenated oils (trans fats)
-
Artificial flavouring instead of real butter
-
Excess sugar or corn syrup
-
Palm oil or margarine as the main fat
These versions can contribute to poor health if consumed regularly.
