No, you are right. They are The Way.

Drogosnextwife · 25/09/2019 20:12

No YANBU, they are the best type of cookie!

ibblebibbledibble · 25/09/2019 20:13

No yanbu! But don’t tell everyone how wonderful they are as I love that they always get left by everyone who dives in for the chocolate ones and leaves all the oaty raisiny goodness all for MEEEEEEEE!!

PickAChew · 25/09/2019 20:13

Home made with proper butter as addictive.

The supermarket ones are vile. The kids love them, though.

sunshineandshowers21 · 25/09/2019 20:14

me too! i get them from the co-op and they are so nice! i’ve actually just been out to get some. i’m also loving granola squares. i’ve always been a double chocolate cookie kinda gal but i’ve been converted.

Nope, yanbu. Sainsbury's 5 pack from the bakery are the best. - well they were better about 7 years ago and they've changed the recipe but they're still the best.

DamnaThatOnesTaken · 25/09/2019 20:14

They are great. Just keep in mind they often have more sugar than regular cookies 😊

SallyT43 · 25/09/2019 20:15

Ybvu for reminding me about them!

astridforty · 25/09/2019 20:16

Ooooo yes, absolutely the best sort. Have you tried the Subway ones?

xTinkerhellx · 25/09/2019 20:17

YANBU because they are the greatest thing to exist (except for wifi) ever.

Im always so disappointed when a cookie turns out to be chocolate chip when I thought it was delicious raisins 😭

I got some on a virgin train not long ago and didn’t realise how good they were. Been getting them from the co-op bakery

TheDarkPassenger · 25/09/2019 20:18

Yabu raisins are vile

I was pretty addicted to them.......until I realised why my jeans were getting tight, they are 181 calories each & I could never eat only one.

bridgetreilly · 25/09/2019 20:45

YABU: they are masquerading as chocolate chip and then have FRUIT in them instead. Ugh.

Inebriati · 25/09/2019 20:51

I was expecting a recipe. For soft baked ones.

Orangepear · 25/09/2019 20:52

181 calories EACH?!

MissConductUS · 25/09/2019 20:54

Oat and chocolate chip cookies are also worthy of obsession.

It's very easy to convert the US measurements:
