Yes, the fudge puts the &#8220;gooey&#8221; in the Chips Ahoy Chewy Gooey.  Yes, Chocofudge and Megafudge sound like Godzilla&#8217;s gigantic blob-like neighbors on Monster Island.  And, yes, I wish one of them was named Superfudge so that, much like Nabisco stuffs fudge into these cookies, I could stuff this review with Judy Blume references.<\/p>\n<p>The Chocofudge version looks like a regular Chewy Chips Ahoy cookie, while the Megafudge looks like a Chips Ahoy cookie from a bizarro dimension with its chocolate cookie and white chocolate chips.  Although, due to the fudge injection, both varieties look a little more plump than regular Chewy Chips Ahoy.<\/p>\n<p>Fudge fills each cookie like a Great Dane fills a Smart Car. With the amount of fudge it&#8217;s almost impossible to not get fudge in every bite, unless you&#8217;re one of those odd people who nibbles a cookie like a bunny rabbit nibbles on a carrot. <\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/theimpulsivebuy\/5738699756\/\" title=\"Chips Ahoy Chewy Gooey Megafudge by theimpulsivebuy, on Flickr\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm6.static.flickr.com\/5303\/5738699756_103003aae6.jpg?resize=500%2C233\" width=\"500\" height=\"233\" alt=\"Chips Ahoy Chewy Gooey Megafudge\"\/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>The Chips Ahoy Chewy Gooey cookies are chewy, but I&#8217;m not completely sold on the gooey part.  In my mind I&#8217;ve always imagined gooey being something soft and sticky that holds together as if their lives depended on it as it&#8217;s being stretched apart and only separating because gravity demanded it.  Although, I may have this mindset from watching way too many pizza commercials.  There is some stretching, but the fudge gives up easily, much like I do when playing Madden at All-Madden difficulty.  But the fudge doesn&#8217;t cry, throw a controller across the room, and scream &#8220;I suuuuuck.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While they aren&#8217;t gooey in my eyes, the Chips Ahoy Chewy Gooey Chocofudge are really good and a step above regular Chewy Chips Ahoy.  Heck, let me say they&#8217;re also better than regular non-chewy Chips Ahoy.  The fudge, while not quality stuff, does give the cookie a significantly stronger chocolate flavor which makes these cookies much more satisfying than regular Chips Ahoy.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/theimpulsivebuy\/5744349167\/\" title=\"Chips Ahoy Chewy Gooey Cookies by theimpulsivebuy, on Flickr\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm6.static.flickr.com\/5188\/5744349167_66f342b4e5.jpg?resize=500%2C275\" width=\"500\" height=\"275\" alt=\"Chips Ahoy Chewy Gooey Cookies\"\/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>As for the Chips Ahoy Chewy Gooey Megafudge, I can&#8217;t say I enjoyed them as much as the Chocofudge.  And I blame the white chocolate chips for that.  The chocolate cookie and fudge give it a deep chocolate flavor, but the white chocolate chips disrupt it.  They&#8217;re like those people who ruin the telling of a really good story by interrupting the storyteller at the most interesting moments with meaningless comments and questions, like &#8220;What happened next?&#8221; or &#8220;If that was me, I&#8217;d slap that bitch.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>What happened next?  If you shut up, you&#8217;ll find out.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m glad Nabisco decided to stuff fudge into these Chips Ahoy Chewy Gooey cookies instead of dipping them in fudge like they do with their Oreo cookies, because having fudge on the outside tends to get a little messy.  Although, since Chips Ahoy are like the human drug testing subjects of the cookie world, I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if a fudge filled and fudge dipped Chips Ahoy cookie popped up on store shelves.<\/p>\n<p><small>(Nutrition Facts &#8211; 2 cookies &#8211; <b>Chocofudge<\/b> &#8211; 150 calories, 60 calories from fat, 7 grams of fat, 3.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 1 gram of polyunsaturated fat, 2 grams of monounsaturated fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 110 milligrams of sodium, 60 milligrams of potassium, 21 grams of carbohydrates, less than 1 gram of fiber, 13 grams of sugar, and 1 grams of protein. <b>Megafudge<\/b> &#8211; 150 calories, 60 calories from fat, 7 grams of fat, 3.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 1 gram of polyunsaturated fat, 2 grams of monounsaturated fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 110 milligrams of sodium, 80 milligrams of potassium, 21 grams of carbohydrates, less than 1 gram of fiber, 13 grams of sugar, and 1 grams of protein)<\/small><\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b> Nabisco Chips Ahoy!
