If you open a package

of cookies, and the first cookie is broken, do you eat it?

do you count it as a whole cookie in your cookie allotment?

I cannot eat a previously broken cookie. I go down the line until I find a whole one and start the gluttony from there.

Re: If you open a package

It goes like this...

if there are 5 cookies on a plate and one of them is broken I can eat all of them and on my planet I will only have eaten 4 cookies. Because the broken one doesn't count. Chat Icon

ETA: so to answer the original question, yes and without guilt.

Same here...

Oddly enough, in my mind, no, they do not count towards my cookie allotment.

then again, I really don't give myself a limit. Chat Icon

Re: If you open a package

It still tastes good and it's not the cookie's fault that it's broken so I feel bad for it and eat it. Plus it doesn't count.

you're into making sense over here now too.

I stand by my no broken cookies policy.

at least I know they won't go to waste!

Re: If you open a package

I'll eat the broken cookie, both halves, and neither counts as a whole cookie.

I could eat 4 halves, and then I might count is as 1 cookie, but certainly not 2.

Disclaimer: I will only eat the broken cookie if I opened the box first and no one else touched the cookies. If there is a box or plate of cookies out, and there is a broken one, I will not touch it. I have no idea if anyone's grubby mitts were on that cookie before I got there. People do that at work with cookies, donuts, bagels, etc. and it Chat Icon me.

YES!!! I should add this disclaimer to my response as well.

I never go for the broken cookie when they've been sitting out.

and you don't have to break them yourself, risking injury.



Yeah with my luck, Id try to break one with my left hand and a chocolate chip would pop up and lodge itself in my eye. Bastid cookie.
