Why take a perfectly good chocolate chip cookie and ruin it with walnuts?

Better nuts than raisins. Now that's ruining a perfectly good cookie.

I do not care for nuts in my cookies, brownies, or cakes :thumbsup:

it's just a weird and distracting texture... like celery or onions in tuna.

Exactly WTF!!!! I don't know why anyone makes oatmeal raisin cookies. Whenever someone brings them somewhere they always sit uneaten, especially if there are other cookies available.

Now, oatmeal chocolate chip cookies on the other hand...

While true, it's similar to stating I'd rather have urine in my water than feces. Ideally I won't have either (at least not in easily detectable quantities).

OM NOM NOM! :awe:

I have it on good authority that oatmeal raisin cookies are the preferred cookie of Satan.

walnuts make excellent cookie enhancers. Almonds and pecans too. But not peanuts. I don't care for any peanut butter cookies!

raisins are disgusting. get them out of my cookies, salads, etc. walnuts are fine, as are most nuts in cookies or candy bars

Just finished a nice mix of pistachio, almond, walnut, salty pumpkin seed... It was good but next time I will put more pistachio and add cashew to the mix. Nut mixes are good. Unless they are infested with peanuts.

In other things... ehhh it really depends, sometimes it can be good.

Fuck raisins.

And I don't know about nuts being better than chocolate. Good nuts are better than bad chocolate and vice versa, but umm... some chocolate is damn good. I had some 70 (or 75 I can't remember) % dark chocolate with lemon+ginger, another with truffle filling, mmmm.
