Price
I stopped at the local grocery store this afternoon to check the current price of these cookies as well as the Pepperidge Farm Sausalito and Verona brands.
One package of soft-baked Montauk cookies costs $5.09 at a Publix in South Florida. With 8 cookies per package, that price works out to about $0.63 per cookie.
Cookie Consumer Reviews
I reviewed a couple dozen consumer reviews this morning. In general, the positive remarks state that these cookies truly are soft, chewy, and have a high quality chocolate flavor.
However, many of the consumers who ordered the cookies online received broken pieces inside the packaging.
Other poor experiences included in-store purchases with cookies that were stuck together. Some low ratings reflected that the cookies had an artificial taste.

Cookie Ingredients and Allergens
Ingredients
Here is the list of ingredients in Pepperidge Farm Montauk Milk Chocolate Chunk Cookies.
Ingredients:Enriched Wheat Flour, Milk Chocolate, Fructose, Vegetable Oils (palm and/or soybean and hydrogenated soybean), Brown Sugar, Butter, Corn Syrup Solids, Sugar, Eggs, Cornstarch, Baking Soda, Salt, Natural Flavors, Cream of Tartar, and Ammonium Bicarbonate.
What is Ammonium Bicarbonate?
Ammonium Bicarbonate is an inorganic compound comprised of the bicarbonate salt of the ammonium ion. It’s a white powder that degrades in carbon dioxide, water and ammonia.
The well known and common name for ammonium bicarbonate is baking soda or baking powder (which is simply baking soda with cream of tartar and cornstarch added).
When used in food, ammonium bicarbonate decomposes during baking to release leavening gases.
Because of these properties, it is used in the production of cakes, biscuits, cookies, bagels, and cakes, among other baked goods.
Allergens
The cookies are made with ingredients that contain wheat, milk, soy, and eggs.
