Yeah, this train never sleeps
Brace yourself, take a seat
Don’t you care about the casualties, casualties
‘Cause it’s safe when it’s just you and me, you and me
I finally tried Crumbl cookies for the first time the other day. I prefer savory over sweet. But people have been raving about them, so I figured, why not? They were good—dense, sweet, and definitely indulgent—but I gotta say, they still don’t beat Levain Bakery for me. Levain has that gooey-meets-crispy magic that’s hard to beat.
A coworker brought in a box and cut the cookies into bite-sized pieces, which was smart because those things are massive. I popped a couple of pieces in my mouth and thought, okay yeah, this is pretty decadent.
Then I made the mistake of looking up and checking the nutrition info on their site. I stared at the numbers in disbelief—calories, cholesterol, sodium, sugar, carbs… and quietly muttered to myself, “what the actual fuck.” It’s like they managed to compress an entire day’s worth of bad decisions into a single cookie. We’re talking 700 to 910 calories per cookie. PER. MF. COOKIE. And everything else on that label? Just as criminal. It’s basically a salt and sugar bomb disguised as a cute dessert.
Thank god my coworker sliced them into eighths. I had two pieces and then slid the rest over to my assistant, who’d mentioned she wanted to try them.
Delicious? Yes. Dangerous? Also yes. Proceed with caution.
