Title: Weekly Random (and possibly nonsense) Poll 2 (A little late)
Post by: The Riddler on January 12, 2009, 08:28:23 PM
Last weeks poll of "Commercial Guys" was a landslide. Billy Mays won with 28 votes, Vince Offer had 1, and "Other" had 1.

Week Two: The World's Favorite Cookie.
Question: Which cookie should be classified as the world's best?

A perfect snack could be described as a cold glass of milk and a plate (or box) of cookies. Two cookie brands stand out above most others, and those are Chips Ahoy! and Oreo. Interestingly enough, both are made by Nabisco.

Chips Ahoy! are simple enough. They're chocolate chip cookies. "Rich Chocolate Chips in every bite!" proclaims their package. These cookies could once be associated with "Sing, Sing, Sing", the popular jazz tune, they now use a walking, talking, chocolate chip cookie as their mascot who has little luck. Do Chips Ahoy! need luck to be named #1 cookie?
Notable variety: Chewy

Oreos are comprised of two chocolate wafers with a creme filling. They're marketed on how each person eats their Oreo. The most common way would be splitting the wafers, licking the creme, reattaching, and dipping in milk. Statistically, these are the best selling cookies in the world, but does that mean they are truely the best?
Notable variety: Double Stuf

Other examples may include Famous Amos chocolate chip cookies, any Keebler Elf cookie, and many others.

Next week's potential topic:
The chicken vs. the egg. (Not really, I don't have a topic. PM suggestions.)

Oreo, duh.

Although, I do like my Grandmother's Peanut Butter Cookies the best.

Oreo.

Anyone who disagrees deserves to get shot.

Oreo. Nothing like jamming all the creme onto one cookie.

Oreos. Especially Double Stuff.
Mint Oreos are kinda nice too.

At least of those two. I like the softness of fresh-baked cookies, regardless whether they're premade or made from scratch, better.

Oreo is what I voted for, but I also love Milano and Keebler's Fudge Shoppe.

Chips Ahoy! kicks Oreo's ass.

Double Stuf Oreo's can kick ass all day long.

Stupid people vote for Oreos :|

Chips Ahoy used to be good, but kinda sucks now.
Double-stuffed Oreo's on the other hand, kick serious ass.

As much as I love "Chewy Chips Ahoy", I'm gonna have to go with Oreos.  :)

World's favorite?  I voted other, as I saw "best cookie"; this Toll House cookie dough I use to make chocolate chip cookies.  I pick Chips Ahoy!

Christ, tough choice.

Between the two, I'm going to have to say Chips Ahoy because of the Chewy variant.

Chips Ahoy! I've never been a huge Oreo's fan, but then again, I don't have a heart.

I used to love Chips Ahoy! but now they've gotten a whole lot worse. If I want a chocolate chip cookie now, I get Famous Amos. They're great.

But I still think Oreos are the best.
