I love cookies. I began my addiction last January and have packed on about 20 lbs. due to eating cookies.

My favorite brand in Korea is the "Choco Diget" and "O-Guk-I".

I love the toffee cookies at Paris Bagette as well as any cookie from Costco. I find it hard to buy a good cookie in Korea. My all time favorite is peanut butter with the hersey's kiss in the middle.

I prefer the Chocolate "Digestive" to the Choco Diget. But that's just me. More of a stronger dark chocolate character.

Are we talking about cookies, as in cookies... or are we talking about biscuits, which are these chocolate digestive BISCUITS some of you guys are talking about......?

If we are talking cookies like I think they are..... then I love chocolate chip cookies that have pistachio nuts added to them.. They are scrummy!!!!

I like homemade cookies the best. Before moving to Korea I was getting pretty good at making raisin oatmeal cookies, chocolate cookies, pumpkin cookies, mary jane surprises, etc.

Pumpkin cookies with cinnamon and chocolate chips...mmm....

Biscuits, cookies, sorry, same s**t. Apologies if that's culturally insensitive, but really, some are thicker than others, so what? They're all little sweet treats made mostly of flour and sugar of some sort.

I like cookies but I prefer muffins.

(Sorry soooooo predictable)

The cookie/biscuit debate brings me back to the first time I went to Popeyes Chicken with an American friend/colleague (co-worker), I looked at the menu with some horror, 'chicken and biscuits?!' I asked her, 'really do they serve chicken and biscuits together?' She looked at me as if it was really no big deal and I continued to hang my mouth open in amazement before we both realised that I was imagining a serving of chocolate digestives alongside my fried chicken! I actually quite liked the 'biscuit' that arrived.

Yeah it's gonna be a hoot when you Brits finally start to make sense of this language you use. A biscuit is a frickin fluffy bread piece, thicker than a roll but softer than a cookie. Next thing you know, you're gonna start acting like a scone is an extant item.

Cookies in Korea are second rate, at best.

I haven't had a good cookie in years.

(This coming from a guy who loves Korean food in general and many of the bakery products here as well.)

Agreed. This place is in dire need of a Mrs. Field's.
