If you could only buy one package of cookies per year during an emergency rationing period, which would you choose?
POLL: Oreo
 Chips Ahoy
 Nutter Butter
 Nilla Wafers
 Keebler Fudge Mint
 Keebler Fudge Stripes
 Keebler Vienna Fingers
 Lofthouse Sugar Cookies
 Famous Amos Chocolate Chip
 Mother's Frosted Animal Cookies
 Lorna Doone Shortbread Cookies
 Pepperidge Farm Milano
 Pepperidge Farm Sausalito
 Blank (View Results) 



It's difficult to choose just one since they're all so delicious. But, if it came down to it, which one of the following common store-bought brands would you buy for you or your family?

:::UPDATE:::

I accidentally put Oreo as the poll title instead of one of the choices. But folks have been voting for Oreo in posts. So far there are six votes for Oreo, with one vote for Newman O's. And there's one vote for Hydrox over Oreo.

There are two votes for Ginger Snaps.

I think there are two votes for thin chocolate mint cookies (Girl Scout cookies).

There's one vote each for:

oatmeal raisin cookies
Pepperidge Farms thin chocolate chip cookies
Marshmallow Pinwheel cookies
Jack's Vanilla Wafers
TimTams

And there are lots of good make at home recipes mentioned.

Fig Newtons don't count because they're not cookies. They're fruit and cake.

Any other milk dunkers hold each cookie in a glass of milk and count the seconds to make sure it's not too short or too long? Usually a 6-count is just right.

Only God damned retards eat cookies.

Do you know what a cookie is doing to you?

Cooking you, that's what.

Needless to say, they are not a survival food unless you are a brain dead Mormon aldeady.

An excellent camping cookie is a 7 layer cookie. Those go over real big as people eat like hungry bears on camping trips.

You could have the ingredients on hand.

Good choclate chip cookies need oat flour so you pulverize oatmeal.

A lot of people havenever had butterscotch morsels in a cookie and are delighted by them.

Purchased cookies are expensive and of poor quality. You can't go wrong with what I suggested. Save your money.

I made the poll too hastily and didn't see that I put Oreo as the poll title until it was too late. Can't edit a poll, unfortunately. One vote for Newman Os it is. Anyone else can vote for Oreo in a post.

It's a matter of personal preference plus what is available locally. Hickory nuts can often be found in the wild. My family and friends liked pecans in this recipe.

You can make you own premixed brownie recipe in ziplock bags. Keep that stuff airtight and rotate.

As long as you have a refrigerator/freezer or it's winter time, if you have cocoa, coconut oil, and a sweetner (honey, maple syrup, sugar), then you can make a short lasting chocolate bar.

It has no stabilizer and is 100% natural, so it sweats at room temp and melts quickly. You store it the refrigerator, a d your family gets very high quality chocolate bars as a treat for doing chores.

Other you need "tempering" as a technique and a stabilizer added.

It tastes like a 100% organic expensive chocolate bar.

Good reminder. You're totally right. I've had those before and the're great.

Also, raisins and walnuts eaten together make a good, healthy dessert.

Super simple Chocolate Truffles

Again, you got to have refrigeration as they will melt.

This is way easier and under an emergency situation where you are trying to make the best with few ingredients and iffy utilities, you might make these easier than cookies.

Eggs and butter may be problematic, right?

A little coconut oil is a substitute when you have thyroid issues as many ladoes are hypothyroid especially in winter so a 40+ lady might have some on hand.

It also pulls infections and stains from teeth and gums, so an inexpensive way to medicinally treat that. A tooth ache in an emergenxy situation is all bad. A coconut oil pull and biting down on a garlic clove might fix the issue.

Everything in your pantry when prepping has multiple uses.

You might have cracked skin in winter and use a dab of coconut oil as a balm and maybe with some Common plantain from the yard. Otherwise it may get infected.

Make your own caramels. The French add salt on one side as a contrast. You really require a thermometer.

Now your family has caramels while other are worried about having a meal. It's a big morale boost that creates the illusion of normalcy.

Re: If you could only buy one package of cookies per year during an emergency rationing period, which would you choose?
Mint is easily sourced as some pioneer lady grew it and t spread wild in a region. Never ever plant mint in a garden as it will take over through spreading roots. Use a container instead.

It's smart to grow some as in an emergency, mouth wash will run out (my youngest daughter years ago said "wash mouth" for the longest time). The. with mint and baking soda, everyone can maintain dental health.

So you could make a chocolate brown and add some homemmade mint extract from mint soaked in cognac. Or crush pepermint candies in the brownies. I guarantee they won't last long.

Here's an actual chocolate mint cookie, just not a crispy kind. Those exist too.

Save your money and bake them as it impresses as few bake anymore.
