sharon&family Posted November 15, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I used to love carnivals chocolate chip cookies. I would eat about 30 of them a cruise. I was on the Mardi Gras recently and the cookies are now different. The cookies are more like toll house which are ok but definitely not the same. The sugar cookies were very good and had the crumbly texture like their choc chip cookies used to be. I was very disappointed. Am I the only one who noticed this? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted November 15, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Lol I wouldnt eat any of their cookies before but now ate the new type chocolate chip. I thought better than the cacky kind of the others. None were good enough to eat more than 1 bite. Lol we are all different. Rcl makes the only really good cookies. Always been something carnival lacked so I was glad of one kind finally I liked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare lazydayz Posted November 15, 2021 #4 Share Posted November 15, 2021 The way I look at it is if I don't like the cookies, I will save myself a bunch of wasted calories. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BasicSailor Posted November 15, 2021 #7 Share Posted November 15, 2021 You should complain directly to Carnival . They answer all emails and sometimes will throw a cruise in there for compensation 😁 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staceyglow Posted November 15, 2021 #8 Share Posted November 15, 2021 At the sandwich place on the Pride, they had some really delicious cookies that they put on the plate with your sandwich - dark chocolate dough with peanut butter chips and a little sea salt sprinkled on top. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted November 15, 2021 #9 Share Posted November 15, 2021 What's wrong with toll house type cookies? I dont eat cookies that are crumbly. Finally a cookie on carnival I liked I thought ... hahaha. I seem to be the only one who liked them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARcruisin2 Posted November 15, 2021 #10 Share Posted November 15, 2021 each to his own... I like soft cookies, but my Mom loved crisp cookies she could dunk in her coffee 🙂 like others, this made me smile.... a sign of normalcy when this is the biggest problem of the day... I'll take it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthworm Jim Posted November 15, 2021 #11 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I too don't like the cookies any more. The problem is that I don't like them any less either.😉 3 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topaz123 Posted November 16, 2021 #13 Share Posted November 16, 2021 The cookies at the Shake/Coffee Place on Horizon had excellent choc chip for 1.49. Much better than standard Lido fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNJCruisers Posted November 16, 2021 #16 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Forget about the cookies. Lunch time cake on the Vista and Excel Class ships is where it's at. With a side of gelato to boot makes it even better. 🍰🍨 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted November 16, 2021 #17 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I'll have to try them when we get back onboard the Mardi Gras this weekend. I REALLY can go overboard (not literally!) on cookies. I don't think I tried any last trip. Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on the Magic Halloween cruise and was excited about getting the cookies again, so I purchased 2 of them. Normally I would have eaten them immediately but I nibbled at one of them throughout the day and ended up throwing the 2nd one away. There really is something different about them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted November 16, 2021 #22 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Along the same lines - I feel that the desserts and such at the coffee place are not as tasty as perhaps they once were. Lots of show, little go. Or, maybe it was just my diminished sense of taste/smell post-Covid (~ 1 month at that point). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m with you on the chocolate chip cookies! I think they’ve definitely changed their recipe! Not nearly as good before the COVID came along. It’s my lunchtime treat to go get a bowl full of the chocolate soft serve ice cream and then 3 of the chocolate chip cookies. So good. Been on 3 Magic cruises since the restart, cookies were not very good, was disappointing. Glad you mentioned this, I will email Carnival and ask what they did. Y’all can all joke about this, but it’s the little things that make me happy on my cruise. Update: I just emailed guest care, so when they reply, I’ll let y’all know!

If no one tells them they do not taste good anymore... how will they know to improve? just a thought, it might be shortage of an ingredient... or a switch in what they are using due to supply chain issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BasicSailor Posted November 16, 2021 #25 Share Posted November 16, 2021 With all this cookie talk I awoke this morning with the urge to dip a cookie in my coffee. So with a happy face I begun dipping the cookie in my coffee . Well the thing got soggy and went straight to the bottom of the cup . I know there's more in the world with life problems but, I wanted that damn cookie . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
