good question, never really thought bout (cause i usually had both lol), but if i got a nice glass of milk, chipahoy is usually my choice. less work to enjoy.

[JohnnyWalkerBlackLabel]

damn you for making you run to the corner store............

Oreos, definately

[hondarobot]

I'm going with Chips Ahoy. Any cookie that manages to incorporate a nautical term into it's name has got to be the best.

[abblecore]

oreos are the best!!! chocolate with a cream in the middle im going to the store too

[estaban]

I heard that the Cookie Monster is now the Carrot Monster because cookies are politically incorrect as an icon for kids!

[blckhaze]

lol, suburban families would do something that stupid!!! i can see it know

I agree about the whole Cookie Monster thing. I personally find ascribing to any puppet the title of "Monster" highly offensive. Perhaps "Nutitionally Challenged Non-Person" would be an appropriate title that every politically correct dullard could live with.

Oh, and in the best interests of furthering any form of hedonistic pursuit, I say Oreos, Chips Ahoy, and any other kind of cookie.

Let's keep it alive partlycloudy since you killed the little Piru homie bear...more cookie discussion

[joyboy123]

Fig Newtons rule.

[bootlova]

OREOS...

[kieron]

Haven't found Chips Ahoy in NZ but i've managed to find and try Oreos, but too stale... in NZ you can buy these cookies from "Cookie Time", nice and chewy! - Look in the guiness book of records for the largest cookie baked in the world - it's the same company. BIG choc chunks! munch munch!

if I remember the commericals, Its not a cookie, its a Fig Newton and more like a cake!!

Here are my favourite cookies (biscuits, we call them here):

1. White chocoloate covered Oreos (better than regular Oreos)
2. Mini Chip's Ahoy (here it's usually easier to find brands like Merba and Maryland, which also come with hazelnut)
3. Danish Butter Cookies (especially Kjeldsen's)
4. McVities Hobnobs
5. McVities Jaffa Cakes (sponge cakes topped with orange jam and covered in chocolate)
6. Regular Oreos
7. Amaretti di Saronno

Some reduced calorie brands, such as Snackwells in the US and McVities Go Ahead! in Europe have some good varieties too.

I hate fig newtons though. Although I've always wondered why they call them that. Anyone know?

Massachusetts has made two irrefutable contributions to cookiedom: the Toll House chocolate chip cookie (invented in 1930 in Whitman, MA at the Toll House Inn) and the Fig Newton, which was named for Newton, MA by the original baker, who named cookies for surrounding towns in Massachusetts (most of which are forgotten). I had to google to get the following detail: Fig Newtons were invented in 1891 by the Kennedy Biscuit Company, which was one of the bakers which merged to form the National Biscuit Company, later known as Nabisco. Other cookies, long forgotten, include Shrewsbury, Harvard, and Beacon Hill (but fortunately not Belchertown).

There is a legend that the Fig Newton was named for Sir Isaac Newton, but that is purely a legend.
