It takes a science writer to come up with a smart cookie. Susie Allport knows fat. She wrote the book on it, The Queen of Fats, a history of omega-3 research. Allport said it is easier to convince people to eat a cookie than read a book on fats.

Today Allport is a baker with a line of tasty omega-3-rich cookies: Susie’s Smart Cookie. She is a champion of omega-3s. The omega-3s in Susie’s Smart Cookies comes from canola oil, walnuts and ground flax. The two varieties, Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie and the Breakfast Cookie, are all natural and have at least one gram of omega-3s in each cookie. The Breakfast Cookie is a complete, breakfast loaded with fruit and two grams of these heart-healthy fats. SWEAT staffers agreed both were yummy and satisfying with a minimal ingredient list. Allport notes these are cookies and should be eaten in moderation. Find Susie’s Smart Cookies at www.susiesmartcookie.com and in select coffee and gourmet stores.
