Good grief. 50 calories PER cookie.. the original, I mean. 100 calories!! 100!!! For ONE Triple Double cookie.

And that, my friends, is why America's obesity rates are through the roof.

    100 calories per cookie! There are so many other things you could eat that would provide more satisfaction for 100 calories. Redonkulous. Absolutely redonkulous.

    If it was a good enough cookie I'd occasionally splurge the 100 calories (or more). But for a crisco and powdered sugar filled disk I think I'll skip it. I have to make a wedding cake for my nephew in October that will be a cookies and cream flavor combo. Hopefully that one will be worth the calories it will have!
