Cookie Monster at Whole Foods

After walking around the SE waterfront Yards Park neighborhood yesterday morning we stopped by the newly opened Whole Foods. It’s really very close to our house - only about 2-3 blocks away. We usually go there to pick up things during the week that we either forgot to get on the weekend or ran out of. I usually have angel food cake for dessert but lately it’s been tough to come by. So I have been stealing a cookie or two from my husband’s supply. That temporary habit has depleted his stash. I really prefer the cake to the cookies for the calories alone. Angel food is just enough to satisfy a bit of a sweet tooth. Every evening my husband always has tea and cookies. So we needed to restore the supply. I noticed the last time we were in Whole Foods that you can select your favorite type of cookies rather than buy a box of one kind - but you can do that too if you prefer. So after we picked up an Italian loaf of bread and some olives, we checked out the fairly large assortment of cookies. The calorie count alone should scare one off. But we did pick out about 4-5 different types - chocolate chip, raspberry filled, pistachio based. We ended up having a 125 calorie cookie with tea after dinner. It was very good, but not something we want to do every day. Unfortunately Whole Foods doesn’t have angel food cake. That is very disappointing!
