:dies: I would seriously have cookie overload in that store with all those choices!
In a pinch and on the cheap Stop & Shop have these store brand ones that I love because they're soft and chewy.

Have I really missed all of those different cookies at Trader Joe's? I didn't know they even made that many - perhaps they're just hard to spot since they're all above the freezers or up in the front by the registers. Or is my TJ's just small?

There are so many that many of them are easy to miss. Ours are over the frozen stuff. I maybe posted half of what we carry for cookies.

You are a cruel cookie taskmistress, RCC.

You are well-placed.
How many of what you're sharing do you get to eat yourself? I ask because I'd probably be in the back with springy, stuffing myself sick and silly.

We have a pretty active tasting program. We're supposed to know what everything tastes like, or at least be able to describe something about it if it's something we don't eat.
For example, I can still talk about some of the spicier dishes or the cilantro dressing even though I'd never eat them. I know what my co workers think of them and go from there.
Part of why we get a discount is to encourage us to eat our own stuff, lol. I rarely buy cookies to take home because I have portion control issues. But, I've tasted them all at some point. God love the break room and times when we get influxes of new people.
I do sometimes buy those sea salt brownies for PMS fixes.

I find I get overwhelmed when browsing the cookies at TJ's, but I can always rely on my almond cookies for a fix. I can't wait to try those popcorn cookie things, they just sound so interesting. One sort of cookie I tried and wasn't super crazy about was the s'mores one, not even sure if they still carry it.
The mini dark chocolate peanut butter cups are EVIL. EVIL!!

I've decided that I'll never get down to my original weight, and I'm OK with that--After all, 8 pounds 2 oz. is just not realistic.

Those s'mores ones are not so great out of the container. But, they're awesome if you nuke one for about five seconds.

I even tried that and they were still kind of meh to me. Maybe I'm just THAT hooked on the almond cookies.  If I'm going to consume those calories I want a cookie O.

I couldn't find the almond ones when I stopped in a SF store. It was definitely overload looking at them all though.

Must look for these today. My current TJ obsession, although not technically a cookie.

I bought the kettle corn cookies and they're good. Mr. Spring says they're a little too buttery for him, wuss.

I like regular-old Oreos. And any variation thereupon. I'm boring like that.
