Fig Newtons are a popular snack originating from the United States, inspired by fig-filled pastries that trace back to Mediterranean cuisine. Made with a soft, golden cookie exterior and a rich, sweet fig paste filling, they blend fruit and baked goods into one convenient treat. The fig filling is naturally rich in dietary fiber, which can support digestion, and contains some essential nutrients like potassium and iron. However, Fig Newtons also include added sugars and refined flour, making them higher in calories and less nutrient-dense compared to fresh fruit or whole-grain alternatives. While they can be enjoyed as a quick source of energy, moderation is key for those mindful of sugar and caloric intake. Their balance of taste and texture has made them a longstanding favorite for those seeking a sweet snack with a hint of fruit-based goodness.
