 The Oreo Cookie of Europe September 13, 2006

Instead of two chocolate wafers sandwiched with lard-like vanilla cream, Bahlsen "Hit" cookies are two butter-flavored biscuits with rich chocolate filling. If you like the flavor of Nutella, this is similar and a very nice large cookie. They are very rich, however, and it's difficult to eat more than one without feeling full; unless you are a confirmed cookie monster. There is a reason these are a best-seller overseas.
Tasty but high-fat October 5, 2006

These cookies are very tasty, surprisingly crisp and light, and don't taste at all like comparable inexpensive packaged cookies from the US. They are made in Poland for a German company and taste a lot like many confections from Europe, where crisp wafers and balanced tasting fillings are the norm(rather than the over-sweet cream fillings common here in the US)
Contrary to another review here, the ingredients/nutrients list states that are are 0g of trans-fats in theese cookies. However, there's a LOT of saturated fat. That's a concern because if you're a normal healthy adult, you could easily eat a package of these in one sitting (only 5 ounces!)...in which case you would have had about your week's worth of saturated fat in one sitting! Since our country has a massive (literally) weight problem, that's something to be aware of.
Hard to beat the taste for the price, but eat with care.
Pretty Darn Good! September 18, 2006

The cookie part of these isn't sweet; tastes just like an animal cracker. The filling tastes just like Nutella, I think it's a great flavor combination. There are 25 packs of a dozen cookies each in the box. Some nutritional info from the label: serving size- 2 cookies, calories-140, trans fat-0, saturated fat- 6g.
OK, OK, so these are not the most nutritious snack, but come on! They're cookies! An occasional indulgence isn't going to hurt anyone.
If you think you'll like the taste combination of animal crackers and Nutella, then buy these. If you are worried about saturated fat, buy some fruit instead.
Delicious Treat--Hey, It's Not a Diet Food! December 28, 2006

There's little question that these cookies have the crumbly pastry-like taste associated with European biscuits in general, they're flaky good like a buttery crust, although not quite as rich and moist as Vienna's finest. The insides is moister; howver, replete with creamy soft chocolate flvor, almost pudding-like in consistency. However, your Honor, since there's a nutritional debate among these reviews, I'd like to enter into evidence the incontrovertible the facts right off this 5.3 ounce package OF "HITs" that I hold in my hand.
Exhibit A.
The following shows the amount and percent of the recommended daily allowance (rda) of one serving - that's two HIT cookies, or 27 grams--based on a 2,000 calorie/day diet.In one serving (two cookies (27 grams):
Calories per serving: 140, total fat =7 grams (11%), Saturated fat=6 grams (29%), Cholesterol, 0 grams; sodium, 75 mg (3%); and 17 grams (6%) of carbohydrates, including 1 gram (3%) of dietary fiber and 9 grams of sugar--and two grams of protein. You also get 2% of the RDA of Calcium, and 4% of iron.
Exhibit B:
Compare this to "one serving" or two (28 grams) cookies of wheat-free/dairy free, mostly organic Newman O's (a somewhat healthier version of the classic OREO): Total fat (4.5 grams), Saturated fat (1.5 g). Trans fat (0 g), calories (130), sugar (10.0 grams), Total Carbohydrates, (31.5g), dietary fiber (1 g), protein (2 g), sodium (85 mg), no cholesterol, iron (8%).
Nutritional conclusion (As always, consult your physician!):
Newman's beats the pants off HIT in total fat, saturated fat (HIT has 4 times as much), twice as much of the RDA of iron but has over twice as many carbohydrates, and minimally more sugar and sodium.
Style points:
I can see Audrey Hepburn eating a HIT bar (without the bright wrapper) or something like it, served on a silver platter, with Italian coffee or perhaps some tea. I cannot see her, unless she's slumming it in "Roman Holiday" eating an Oreo, even one owned by an actor as great as Paul Newman. HIT cookies--loved by kids, suitable for the adult.
Offered here at a great price; moveover, Amazon.com ships this free on eligible orders of $25 or more.
They're tasty. Just don't eat the entire case! September 30, 2006

Let's face it: Americans are fat. Europeans tend not to be. Plus they live longer, more fulfilling lives. So who cares about hydrogenated oils (as in palm kernel and coconut)? Seriously, people. Go outside for a change and get off your computer, get some exercise, and stop being stressed out over the little things in life, such as banning so-called "deadly" oils. Some oils make things taste better, as the case with these fine cookies :)
