I just can't understand how it's even possible to fit 700-1000 kcal in ONE COOKIE! one cookie??? please, some one who knows more, help me understand

[@dizzylilthing]

If you use an excess of butter and an excess of sugar, your toppings are dense, and use high protein flours you can really make a cookie calorically dense

[@dizzylilthing]

@@tatt_cat did you know one sandwich from the American sandwich store called Subway can be over 2,000 calories? with their most calorically dense bread clocking in at 1200 calories, you only need to add fatty and sugary ingredients in order to give it another 800 calories and make it the single thing you need in a day to get your daily caloric intake. calories are really easily manipulatable since they represent how much potential energy a dish contains. A dish created using lots of volatile ingredients, such as fats and sugars, is going to have a lot of potential to release energy. When powdered sugar is loaded into icing and baking, it works overtime to raise the calorie per cubic centimeter

[@Cassie-xx5fb]

Butter.

[@RamenzillaX]

@@tatt_cat Easy: butter and sugar. One tablespoon of butter is 100 calories. 8 grams of pure sugar is about 30 calories. Those are just two ingredients on their own in small amounts. Add the dough and toppings…and however much butter and sugar they use per gargantuan cookie…It adds up very quickly.

[@ghoulchan7525]

The thing that people don’t get about brands like bath and body works, and crumbl cookies is that once you have tried a couple products you have tried them all because they all use a base formula. so, they all taste or smell the same.

[@sunbeam9229]

While you do have a point about the cookies, the different scents from b&bw do smell distinctive. This however, does not give a person the excuse to over consume the product.

I wasn't even newly qualified at the time! I'd already been working in pharmacy for almost 2 and a half years at that point. When I simply repeated it (for clarity) to the owner on the phone that they essentially wanted me to work without pay for a couple hours, she s told me it's an 'investment' and I should view it as an 'opportunity'. I honestly had to stop myself from laughing in her face and politely told her I would think about it. Then messaged her later that I'd accepted a job offer elsewhere. It honestly blew my mind. So insulting. Part of me wonders if there was an aspect of racism because I'm black. Why can't they just contact my references like a normal person? Nah, I'm sure this is what they do. They give people this 'trial shift' (unpaid labour) and then say "Sorry, you're not what we're looking for." 😂😂 What a joke. As if it'd be difficult for me to find another job in community pharmacy.

my mom got crumbl cookies ones, just a basic chocolate chip one. i took one bite genuinely the worst thing ive ever had

[@soniapersaud716]

I worked there and it was horrible. The work environment was very toxic

[@emilyletter5863]

i used to work there and they literally bake them at 285F degrees, so depending on the batch they would definitely be underbaked (edit i think it's actually 285F, crumbl affected my memory i guess. i just remember it being really low)

Not me thinking about 385°C

[@lulumolloy]

Why is this temp bad? Genuinely curious cause as a home baker cookies are usually like 325-350f

[@24shineon]

@@lulumolloy my genuine guess is they just aren’t baked for long enough to cook the inside since the temp is higher leaving them long enough would make the outside not as desirable, but that’s only a guess

[@user-um8zt2ke8o]

​@lulumolloy their cookies are much larger and thicker and often contain chunky toppings that affect the ability to cook fully once taken out of the oven to cool. Most items will continue to cook with residual heat. Additionally it's often young kids with their first job, so they aren't keen on when to keep the food in longer, checking temps. They also cook many more at a time, so the heat is distributed more over more items, as opposed to a home cook who usually does a dozen or 2 at a time. Not bashing on them, it's just stuff you learn to do over time. But these businesses like this don't, andaren't, training them properly. It's all telephone training (being trained by someone who was trained by someone else who was trained by someone who's not even there anymore). So, the quality suffers.

[@officialnyasa]

Ill never buy crumbl. I could make 30 cookies for the price of their 4 cookies

The people who blindly follow every Trend can't be stopped until underconsumption or sustainability is the new trend. These people scare me, they seem to have no mind on their own. Of course there are people that are to be feared more, but these consumerists give me this strong dystopian nightmare vibe where everything is squeeky clean and everybody Acts like they are supehappy.

[@PHBRNTGGR2]

[@Mya.n.chichi]

As someone who is immunocompromised (I had a full liver transplant 9 months ago) I have to be very careful on things like raw food and the complaints about the raw cookies happened to me as well, I got very scared but I thankfully never got sick. That was my very first experience with them too 😢

[@ShesACATastrophe]

Never purchased but a coworker shared a cookie with me. I don't like raw cookies. It was a disappointment and not worth the hype.

We had a Crumbl go into a strip mall in the same storefront that was a weight watchers, ironically.

[@nickerdoodles2174]

You were spot on about being taken advantage of when you’re young and inexperienced just entering the workforce. Been there a few times. One job I had the psychopath boss refused me time off for my Grampa’s funeral!! And I had given them a good heads up. Needless to say, I didn’t work there for long. Of course there was a myriad of other problems, but in a nutshell, all the employees(it wasn’t just me) were way under appreciated, underpaid, overworked (the company refused to hire enough staff for all the responsibilities), basically treated like trash. I can now sniff out this crap a mile away, I know all the right questions to ask in an interview, and for the present, I’m working for myself, until I find a company who can appreciate the skills and hard work I have to offer.

[@finnpeders02]

i had an interview at crumbl a while ago so i can corroborate some of this! the owners watching through the cameras is true, probably depends on location/franchise but they straight up said they did that when i interviewed. they were also forward about being a "competitive" workplace, which is a huge red flag. also not talked about in the video, but at the franchise i interviewed at, all the employees had to join the landmark forums "self help" cult.

[@RamenzillaX]

The nutrition profile of those cookies is going to give me nightmares, lol. I mean, treat yourself for sure but good grief. Too much…and to be underbaked? No thank you.

[@aesinam]

Better to just bake at home or get a normal sized cookie lol

[@lordfreerealestate8302]

We should just support small businesses and local bakeries. The ones near me are LEAGUES ahead of this crap. I like gooey cookies but that cookie isn't just gooey ... it's undercooked.

I make my own cookies from scratch, I hada friend bring these over once and they were... not good.. The friend now prefers the ones I make anyway 😂 Lol! I'll take my own thanks! Lol!

I've had Crumbl twice. Was not impressed both times. They were so painfully sweet, too thick, and TOO MUCH CRAPPY TASTING ICING.

[@lorrefl7072]

I'm from Belgium and never heard of them. I don't like overly sweet stuff so they would definitely not be to my taste. It's sad that a big corporation in a civilised country can still underpay their workers. It's about time laws change in America and workers get basic right like decent pay, decent amount of days off, payed maternity (and paternity) leave for a few weeks/months... like the rest of the world gets.

Imagine subjecting your employees to that much bad treatment and stress just to sell unhealthy cookies to people who have over consumption problems they flaunt on social media. Every single part of this is stomach turning

Oh ya they're Mormon, I think one of the founders is related to the guy who's married to ballerina farm?

[@kayladixon1545]

Was looking for this comment. They are Mormon. I got these gross cookies as a going away gift from work one year and I looked into them. There is a website you can look up if a company is Mormon. They own a lot more than you think.

[@allisoncarroll1284]

I once saw them on twitter bragging about how they put small bakeries out of business. After that I had no desire to ever try a Crumbl cookie.

I didn’t know about crumbl getting really popular, and was thinking of visiting the one near me at some point. Hearing all this makes me want to go get cookies at the Mexican market instead ;) I forgot what they’re called but any place that sells sweetbread (conchas) usually has them! Cheap, large, chewy and yummy! Hearing about things like this are a great reminder to choose local and independent shops over large chains instead.

These viral trends are getting crazy. Seriously, people would line up for anything nowadays. Those cookies are not even good. Boss took some to office and I took one bite and had to spit it out. These cookies, the Stanley cups, Starbucks cups and drinks, etc are not worth the hype in my opinion.

[@tarotsushima3332]

Not to mention the turnover rate on these microtrends is crazy. The Stanley Cup and Trader Joe tote bag crazes barely lasted a year before people stopped giving a shit and I'd reckon Crumbl's hurtling towards that path fast. Just a lot of people with too much time and money on their hands indulging in overconsumption to stave boredom and get some sort of in-crowd feel of belonging.

[@jenayrandall9358]

Crumbl has been around for years. As someone with a sweet tooth I was never enticed to walk in and buy a cookie and still am not. They dont look fresh or appetizing.

Same as with allll American fastfood chains. I live in Belgium but IF we want to eat fastfood, we drive to the Netherlands. The service here is so so bad. Also underage employees with no one teaching them things. Fries are always cold/taste like paper, drinks are always messed up and spilled over orders, items missing OR even taken a bite out of …. 😂 These companies don’t deserve their customers or employees!!!

[@jessefinnigan5397]

I worked at a neighborhood pizza place in my late teens/early 20s that has been a favorite of the community for years. They get written about in the papers as a local gem and just the most perfect place. The truth is, I've seen them hire minors who are too young to work there, during hours they could never legally work, deny workmans comp for workplace injuries and leave their employees destitute (myself included), expect employees to work as a professional cleaning crew on top of their regular jobs for less money than they worked for or that a person can reasonably live on. They even once stayed open despite having no hot water for a week, which is a HORRIBLE health concern in terms of hand sanitizarion and dish washing. I quit after 5 years there because i legitimately didn't feel okay poisoning my own neighborhood community and was blacklisted from business in my neighborhood that knew the owners because i blew the whistle on their illegal practices.

How can it be legal for a minor to work until 1am?? 😳 in European countries there are strict laws and we have worker rights. Isn’t there something similar in the US?

Depends on where you are, but I’ve never heard of it being illegal for minors to work late shifts. At least, not in the US. I had high school classmates who worked late shifts at the movie theater.

[@joosoo]

"The children yearn for the mines."

[@ntnttmrtn]

each US state has different child labor laws. the laws differ in the ages they protect, the amount of hours worked, time of day allowed to work, etc. some states have more labor protections than others. for example, in Wisconsin, the state I work in, if a minor is under the age of 16, they cannot work past 7pm (and 3 hours per day) while school is in session or past 9pm (and more than 8 hours per day) during seasonal or holiday breaks. Kids that are 16-18 aren't protected at all and are subjected to the same labor laws that adults are. businesses in Wisconsin, especially fast food chains and franchises, are notorious for violating child labor laws. 15 year old kids flipping burgers until 10pm on a Thursday in October. it's not regulated. someone, a parent or a kid aware of their rights or a teacher, has to report it to the federal and/or state employment rights department. america will always value capital over protecting its citizens. nothing is sacred.

[@TheSamjane4]

Same in Australia…kids under 16 are not allowed to work past 9pm Kids under 15 can’t work past 5pm and kids 16-18 not past midnight. and no school hours except on school holidays. If they dont want them to have breaks then they are only allowed to work a 3 hr shift because anything after that they MUST have proper paid breaks.

[@sapphirelane1714]

Feels so good to see people calling out crumbl’s nasty atrocities! My family loves them, and I thought I was in the minority. Make me sick every time, always undercooked (my family convinced me that was part of the design)!🤮
