start with our control group get a sense of what a cookie should taste like and then move on to the competitors it's a nestle toll house so good man i haven't had a good chocolate chip cookie in a long time that was great it's a solid cookie i don't want to move on well let's move on edie's chocolate wafer cookie have you hold it up to the light there aren't even very many chocolate chips in there you might not see it a amongst the burned brown color it's worth noting also that i don't think this is burned we cooked it long enough so that it was just like kind of solid on the pan and we did not cook it to like a level that's crispy like it's still bendy and oh it flaps like a bird it's so weird what is that brown sugar is that what it is it's just a high amount of brown sugar it's just brown sugar and butter you guys it's not cookie at all it doesn't have that cakey texture it's actually gummy it's gummy it's not nice it's kind of like sweet goo in your mouth it's not nice okay cookie yeah maybe not so much breyer's looks legitimately cookie not a whole lot of chips on the front but on the back you actually see a decent amount of embedded chocolate chips okay oh oh it's very it's kind of a weird texture yeah it tastes like they made this with a lot of artificial ingredients to replicate the look and feel of cookie dough but it does not have the taste of an actual cookie at all it feels like a computer made a chocolate chip cookie they were like this is a chocolate chip cookie this looks and appears like a chocolate chip cookie it doesn't taste like it turns out that artificial chemically flavor is actually a telltale sign of too much baking powder as we predicted from the visual it's likely there to create a puffy texture even without egg but maybe they over did it just a little onward to the next all right next up is let's go with uh the mayfield oh okay that's the best one so far i'm having like a hard time chewing this puppy but it does taste like a chocolate yeah this one so far tastes the most like our control group it's like you went on the show nailed it and they asked to make a chocolate cookie and no one knew how to make a chocolate chip cookie this is that yeah i think that's right that we're like sort of the flavor is right and sort of the look is right but really it's not great yeah if you squint at it it's passable okay uh next up each tea the hd cookie cracker oh listen to that snap oh oh it's just sugar it's just cooked sugar there's nothing of substance here and again think about this sugar is soluble in water so when we think about the ones that really dissolved where it was impossible for us to fish out the bits of cookie dough from the warm ice cream it makes complete sense it's really interesting and and this is i think the most exciting part of this experiment right each one is different in its own way like no two of these has tasted the same or had the same
