Thank you for giving the correct answer. I can't believe that OP instructed me to say no to a cookie, outrageous!

[–] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 11 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Controversially, yes to pretzels and maybe to crisps. I like a bit of salted savoury.

Of course is also say yes to M&Ms.

No to Oreos. Oreos are essentially shit Bourbons from America, and they need to stop infesting our divine British food with them.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fight me! Your street address format confuses TF out of me, so I can't meet you at a location. Just name a city and I will defend Oreos there with flailing and wild swings. Leeds? How about Liverpool, that sounds like fun.

[–] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I mean when you're here you can just pick up some bourbons and then there's no need to fight.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Diplomatic solution, eh? I already had handbills printed, it's a shame... "International Bourbons Brouhaha Liverpool, One Night Only"

[–] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah, no need for a scrap - just a cup of your preferred warm drink, and a giant tin of assorted biscuits to share :)

I admire your passion for biscuits.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And Bourbons are just shit knock off Hydrox. The Brits need to stop importing food and trying to claim they invented it.

Are there any regular chocolate chip ones?

[–] Wilco@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The cereal, chips, and oreo cookie toppings will go stale extremely fast. A local donut shop tried cereal topped donuts ... the toppings go stale after an hour or two.

[–] KuroiKaze@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I don't know where you're getting this info from, but one of the most popular donut companies in the United States voodoo donuts very famously uses lots of cereal toppings.

fuck: Pistachio Cream
marry: Mini Peanut Butter Cups
kill: Pretzels

[–] LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Yes- peanut butter cups. God that's sounds amazing.
No - lucky charms. Cereal on a cookie??? No no no
Maybe - I'm intrigued by the potato chips cookie

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 4 points 1 week ago

Oh man Lucky Charms is my yes! Potato chips is my maybe.

[–] neo2478@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

You are absolutely a person of culture! This is the one and only answer!

Yes Lucky Charms
No pretzels
Maybe potato chips

Honestly I'm down with everything except the abomination that is pretzel cookies

I'd eat them! I like chocolate covered pretzels so I figure these could be good

[–] beastlykings@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Sprinkles taste like nothing and are sometimes ridiculously crunchy and hurt my teeth. Everything else looks delicious. I'm hungry.

[–] KuroiKaze@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah sprinkles suck ass and are definitely the trashiest possible topping

[–] germtm_@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

yes to halva and m&m, maybe to pistachios and peanut butter cups, no to potato chips and pretzels.

not a fan of mixing salty with sweet on 90% of cases.

[–] KuroiKaze@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Agreed. I'm so pissed that they ruined caramel by shoving salt into it all the fucking time.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Yes to all but Lucky Charms. But, if Lucky Charms were the only ones left, then also yes.

[–] SEND_BUTTPLUG_PICS@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago

These are all yes for me.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

M&M - yes since there is no oatmeal raisin option. All the rest - hard no.

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

No on the potato chips, maybe on the Lucky Charms. All others are a yes. The halva sounds like an exceptionally good idea.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Fuck: M&Ms

Marry: Pretzel

Kill: Halva

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 3 points 1 week ago

Pistachio cream, yes. All others, no.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

M&ms are fine, I'd eat that. I'd try the potato chip.

The pistachio ones kill my twin so maybe I don't try those or have them near the house.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

No: pistachio. I hate the taste of pistachio. Yes: peanut butrer cups. Maybe: all the rest

[–] hazl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago

I'm lucky enough to receive pressure from every direction to avoid any food that brings me a noticeable amount of pleasure, so they're all a no!

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 2 points 1 week ago

Potato chips: No. Love em, but don't like them on sandwiches or combined with other foods.

Halva: Maybe. Never tried it, but it looks good!

The rest are all Yes!

[–] EbenezerScrew@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

They all look good, but sprinkles don't add anything to a cookie for me so

No - sprinkles Maybe - Pistachio cream, Halva Yes - Any cookie

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 1 week ago

I'd swap the chocolate chips in the pretzel cookie out for caramel. That would be a way better combo of flavors, IMO.

[–] MTK@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago
[–] i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Yes - M&Ms

No - Peanut butter is the most revolting thing ever

Maybe - Lucky charms? I'm not sure it'll work but I'll give it a try.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If you reject peanut butter, what do you put on your sandwiches with jelly? Checkmate!

[–] i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I eat jelly in a bowl with ice cream.

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That sounds like something a robot would say.

[–] i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 1 points 1 week ago

I eat jelly on my microchips.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Peanut Butter is part of the trifecta of gross foods people consume regularly. The others are pickles and raw tomatos.

[–] KuroiKaze@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Peanut butter is part of the iron triangle of majestic desserts which is peanut butter, chocolate and banana.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Lucky Charms: kill, far too sweet, will compete with the sweetness of the cookie itself. Halvah: marry, settle down and have a couple of kids.

[–] LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Congratulations on your impending nuptials! Let me know you and Halvah's wedding gift list.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Thank you so much, we're 70% fat, it's going to be tough to balance the fat/flour ratio, so please get us 500kg of the finest flour, that'd be great.
