Hi - If you've had bad experiences with figs then avoid them, but in general fig newtons are pretty well-tolerated. They're low fat, the figs are so well-pureed the insoluble fiber is really minimized, and there's a decent amount of soluble fiber in the cookie too. Figs don't have a laxative effect like prunes.

Best,
Heather
