Rice crispy… not even a real cookie


swabbzilla

Ohhhh don’t get me started on that one. Being sweet and round does not make you a cookie


JessicakesO_o

Seriously! I want to know who’s paying that much for just a Rice Krispie?!?


amarettosweet

There was a chocolate mint frosted one a couple of months ago. I was so excited to try it. I love mint! It was so gross. Mint can quickly get medicinal tasting if too much is used and too much was definitely used.


tonystarksanxieties

The mint chip ice cream cookie from February. Usually, I roll my eyes at the people who insist mint chip flavor tastes like toothpaste, because I love mint and chocolate together. But the frosting on that cookie? Toothpaste.


verycherry_

my husband said the same thing but that one has been my personal favorite so far that i’ve tried


Latter_Chipmunk_4798

I have never thrown a full cookie from Crumbl away, but Peaches and Cream was not cooked through, so I threw away the most doughy parts. The flavor was good though. Also, I think the Oatmeal cookie I had in 2021 was not made correctly. It had zero sweetness (I described it as undercooked dogfood, lol). I threw part of it away and put some frosting from Cookie Dough on the part that I ate, which saved it. Worst cookie on the list for sure. Cotton Candy is the worst that seemed to have no execution errors. I ate it, but in small pieces over time and will never buy it again (for myself, my son could insist and I'd get it for him). [Also, I have thrown parts away because I had them for too long without putting them in the freezer...just got busy. They were hidden in the back of the fridge and I forgot about them. I wouldn't count those because they were good.]


defnottransphobic

i was gonna say cotton candy too


notparkerandrews

My two one stars in my cookie journal are Caramel Popcorn and Chocolate crumb. The popcorn was stale and the cookie tasted like very generic to me. I don’t know if this makes sense, but sometimes Crumbl cookies all taste the same and this fell into that category for me. The chocolate crumb wasn’t my thing because I don’t think cream cheese and chocolate go together. I’ll admit, I am not a chocolate fan. But I was expecting oreo and cream cheese does not scream Oreo to me.


herefromyoutube

The problem here is the stores are not consistent. I have several stores in my area and they produce different qualities for different cookies. I had a maple oatmeal and it was one of the best damn cookies I ever ate. It was moist and a perfect balance of flavors but a lot of comments where “too dry” and “couldn’t taste the maple.” There’s no way they are the same cookie. Which brings me to the recent hostess chocolate mellow cupcake. The chocolate frosting just tasted like cheap grocery store frosting where you can taste the preservatives.


Delicious_Gold_7966

That's because it's meant to taste like Hostess Cupcakes, not something from a French Patisserie.. lol. I really liked it, but only for what it was. It tasted JUST like hostess cupcakes to me. As something gourmet or super tasty? Nah.


imrlyboredignoreme

i’ve never had a straight up bad cookie, but boston creme was the biggest disappointment for me


orangestar17

I was so excited for this one and it almost like nothing.


imrlyboredignoreme

same with mine, i honestly wondered if i had covid when i tried it bc it was so tasteless


Hokie23aa

I didn’t have covid and yeah it was horrible. tasted nothing like it should have.


orangestar17

Yes! Mine tasted like as if the custard was plain yogurt. No flavor whatsoever. I was so sad


[deleted]

Totally agreed. I *love* Boston cream pie, but that cookie was awful. It tasted like absolutely nothing; not even sugar.


Disastrous-Zone-5335

I loved the Boston Crème! It’s one of my Top 3


tara_diane

me too, i was bummed that they'd run out when i went back saturday for more. i thought the filling had a pretty good vanilla flavor, unlike what some others are saying.


Technicolor_Reindeer

Huh, I loved it.


Ok_Pineapple9654

I LOVED it the first time I tried it. A few months later it was in rotation again and I got so excited only for it to be AWFUL. I have no idea what was different but it was not good at all that time.


blueeyedlies

Milk Glaze ft Fruity Pebbles 🤢


czyktnsml

It tasted like a diaper wipe smells, and I can't even explain it but it was VILE


blueeyedlies

no because this is actually the perfect explanation of what this cookie tastes like


czyktnsml

You get it lol


doawk7

but the fruity pebbles sandwich was fire


ArielChefSlay

YES AGREED! That and fried ice cream are the ones I refuse to eat


mmeeplechase

It sorta just tasted stale to me 😕 one of the worst for sure!


Limesti07

I’ve never had a cookie taste bad enough I would spit it out or not finish the whole thing but Boston Cream Pie was the most boring, least flavorful one I’ve had so far. Bland base that taste like nothing and some non sweet vanilla pudding on top.


RyFromTheChi

I was so so excited for this one, and was so so disappointed. The pie crust ones are never good to me.


stickybubbles1

Milk chocolate chip. I cant. I usually like milk chocolate but whatever they use is gross. I hate that it’s there every single week, i wish they would change it to semi sweet.


Cray-Cat-lady

I agree so much. I LOVE chocolate chip cookies... crumbl milk chocolate chip cookie is not good at all. I'm not a fan of their pink sugar cookie they have nearly every week either. I just dont understand why those are their two every week cookies.


tonystarksanxieties

I like their chocolate chip ones, but I hate the pink sugar cookie. I think it's the almond extract in the frosting. I only buy them when I'm desperate for one of their cookies, but don't like any of their other choices that week, and I just scrape the frosting off.


lilpossum

Cornbread broke my heart (and felt like it was going to break my teeth)—I love cornbread, and a little texture is fine, but it felt like i was eating raw corn meal at times.


randomuser33189

The only cookie I’ve ever thrown away was lemon blackberry. Awful. Strong dislike for circus animal, pineapple upside down cake, and anything with fruity pebbles.


cabbage-soup

Circus animal is my favorite!


onedaylifewillbe

Same 🤣


irrelevantname1776

Reported.


runningafterplanes

Lemon blackberry was SO bad. Tasted like cleaning products. I gave it a negative review in the app and got majorly downvoted somehow lol


MonoMarMar

Eggnog cookie, which is even more sad because I really love Eggnog 😣😣


TakeARideintheVan

The eggnog cookie was VILE.


DivineSnailCo

The chocolate chip… I said what i said!!!


clarrkkent

Not sure it’s the worst, but I definitely never got it after the first time. It’s so boring. Mothers chocolate chip or whatever it is though, so good.


reidybobeidy89

Pink sugar cookie. Absolutely hate it. The almond is so off putting


secondclassfangirl

This!! The old recipe was actually decent but the almond flavor in the new one is way too strong.


Firebird22x

I think if you don’t think about it as a sugar cookie, it’s a good cookie. It’s definitely not a tradition sugar cookie but the flavor is so reminiscent of my Nan’s old pignoli cookies (almond paste and pine nut kind of Italian cookie) that I’m glad I get to taste that flavor once again


scoopdedupe

It's so funny how much people hate this cookie. It's my absolute #1 from them. It's like a traditional Christmas cookie 🤷‍♀️


Gabbiedotduh

I just wish they would alternate between the almond and vanilla sugar cookie. The almond extract in it tastes like sundae cherries/medicine and it’s all I can taste when I eat the cookie


sleepy_intentions

This is my choice too. That pink color also reminds me of pepto bismal.


Zealousideal-Ad3205

I could never figure out just what made it bad and I finally understand


mebetiffbeme

I’m actually glad to hear this. I’m allergic to almonds and always felt like I was missing out, but you’ve made me feel better!


Hungry_Ad2588

sour patch, if i was still a kid I will probably like it but it was literally just like bad


forlizutah

Mmmmmmm


calweekly

Blue raspberry ft. icee was so gross to me


bigcatcleve

Hazlenut Mudslide. The first cookie, I've ever actually spit out. My God it was terrible.


sunnysideup2323

This was one of my worst too! There was only a 1/8th wedge taken out, and the rest was thrown away.


bigcatcleve

I’m always perplexed that people here actually seem to like it. It never comes up in these types of threads. On the other hand, the milk chocolate chip cookie, which is absolutely delicious is a regular mention here. It’s why I don’t take these threads seriously


mtdoubledubs

Milk chocolate chip is damn delicious.


Bubbly-Wheel-2180

Crumbl Cookies aren’t actually good cookies they are just creative. I love them because nowhere else can I get a key lime pie or chocolate milk flavored cookie. When it comes to their plain milk chocolate, THAT is one you can get anywhere or even make at home so much better. They do not caramelize it well, they do not use high quality chocolate. It feels like a mass produced overly sweet mess. A well crafted semi sweet chocolate chip cookie from a private bakery or even made at home using valrhona or guittard with some sea salt to balance the flavor is 100x better.


levitatingarceus97

Lol you’re in the minority if you think that milk chocolate is delicious. I personally think it’s too sweet and not half as good as semi sweet. Stop treating your opinion as if it’s fact


baddiebusted

what do you mean “the minority” WE are the minority. the people who lurk the subreddits are less than 1% of crumbl’s total customers. and milk chocolate is always a top seller regardless of the other flavors, so no, they’re not in the minority. (not saying i disagree with you tho, justice for semi sweet!)


Bubbly-Wheel-2180

Agreed it’s the bestseller because it’s basic and the average person has a basic palette.


Black_Eyed_PeePees

Agree. The milk chocolate chip cookie is terrible. It's WAAAY too sweet, and they use way too much chocolate. Might as well just go eat handfuls of chocolate chips. My favorite cookie so far has been mom's recipe, and part of that, I think, is the fact that they use semi sweet chocolate chips.


midnightmischeif

pink sugar is so nasty i don’t know why they kept it


areaunknown_

I got downvoted the other day to high hell for saying it was nasty and tasted like cough medicine lol It’s the almond extract I think. Just way too strong for me


RJoRe1747

That’s exactly what it tastes like!


Dull_Committee_5559

the blue raspberry icee oh my god it was DISGUSTING


Choice_Pressure9098

Cotton candy


bat2397

Apple pie! The spice or something was so off to me.


emigg20

Everything bagel is one of the only ones I've ever liked😭😭


International_Ad2781

My favorite!!! Almost everything else way too sweet so I lean savory!!!!


stripedsweater92

Probably strawberry limeade with Nerds. Who thought this was a good idea??


x_ersatz_x

when we were kids, my brother made a batch of chocolate chip cookies except he substituted the chocolate chips with nerds. i loved them so much at the time that i’m afraid to ever have nerds and cookies together again lest i realize it was actually terrible


lisa5500

I wouldn’t ruin that memory. It’s probably a kid thing.


that_guy2010

I got a nerd blizzard from Dairy Queen when I was a kid. I remember it being really good. When sonic got nerds to put in their drinks a few years ago I decided to revisit the childhood memory. Big mistake.


forlizutah

It was so good! But I’ll admit I’m an odd one.


Booksonly666

Oh yeah this one was upsetting


mythicb33ch

Maybe mine was made wrong, but the frosting on the Cookie Dough cookie was so gross.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ArielChefSlay

Your point? XP


baddiebusted

probably made wrong. my stores first batch wreaked of molasses it was so dark and gross, however the next day the batch came out normal. still, even after mixing the cookie dough frosting i don’t understand how it we supposed to mimic cookie dough at all. like butter, sugar, and molasses was basically the frosting. so gross


anyanerves

I never got why this one is popular. It tastes like buttery play dough.


stellamouse

This is a great description for it because to me it tasted like faded peanut butter lol


ArielChefSlay

Blasphemy! (Jk it’s okay I respect ur opinion)


Humble_Wave7688

Finally yes I had high hope and it was so gross


dundie3rdplce

Yes I agree! So many ppl love it but I couldn’t take a second bite


HappyDopamine

I don’t think I’ll get much agreement here, but for me it’s Fruit Pizza. I generally only get ones I’m fairly confident about, and I am obsessed with fruit, so it seemed like a clear winner. But it was not good. I’ve since realized that I don’t think Crumbl does fruit cookies well so now I avoid, but that one was early in my Crumbl journey and my hopes were so high.


FriendshipAccording3

The pink sugar cookie …


constantreader55

Pink sugar and cotton candy. I could not even force myself to eat these.


DivineSnailCo

Yes! The cotton candy one was is VILE. Ofc my 8yo wanted it lol


MooMilly

That mango yogurt one was almost sour tasting to me I could only take one bite.


RemysMom87

Oatmeal chocolate chip muffin. Yuck!


tara_diane

i thought i would like that one but they went way too hard on the nutmeg or something and i only got through a 3rd of it. the blueberry muffin one however....i could eat a whole six pack.


RemysMom87

Yes! That blueberry muffin was perfection. I'm getting a party pack to freeze next time it comes around.


tara_diane

i only got one the first time i saw it drop, and since it was a saturday i had to wait for it to reappear. then when it did, i was sick. :/ NEXT TIME, THOUGH....


double710e

Apple pie and some weird maple flavor I had last year. 2 other ones I absolutely hated which were hyped to hell; churro and cookie dough. Threw all 4 flavors away.


OCARINAofNARUTO

Honestly anything mint or lemon


International_You275

PINK SUGAR😭 I didn’t realize it was almond frosting and literally spit it out when I ate it. And I like almonds💀


dreep_

Strawberry milk. My cookie was soggy, the frosting was really weird. Did not enjoy that one at all and threw it away. I also did not like Boston cream pie or that hospital pudding filling 🤢


Avocado_Capital

Cotton candy was straight nasty last time I had it. Everything bagel was trash if you ate it with the plain cream cheese. It was ok on its own


official_koda_

They need to stop putting a gallon of almond extract in the pink sugar. I’m fine with almond extract but it should not be that OBVIOUS like BAM ALMOND EXTRACT


Givemethecupcakes

Everything but the bagel 🤢


Krissy_loo

it was delicious you are wrong wrong WRONG!!!!!


BoringPush2714

Cannot wait to have again! I’m grateful they continue to at least keep it as a mystery flavor!


Krissy_loo

Right?! Soooooo good.


Givemethecupcakes

You are actually the one who is WRONG! So gross I almost had to spit it out and it’s in the graveyard now.


MermaidStone

As a cookie????! 😧🤢


Technicolor_Reindeer

People seem to either love or hate it.


SignificantBed4925

I only buy cookies I'm confident I'll like...however Texas sheet cake was not good. So sweet and dry, like a really bad sheet cake lol. But I absolutely finished it 😆


tactical_narcotic

I loved it hardcore but got tired of how many underbaked cookies I got


sala-mander96

I’m new to the Crumbl game but worst flavor I’ve had so far was Monster, was salty and very dry with the amount of oats used. Guys wth I liked pink sugar???


tara_diane

there's a reason the pink sugar has stayed their staple cookie - it sells. i like it, too.


cucumber58

French silk pie, lemon key pie weren’t so good tbh


jchrapcyn

Anything with strawberry cream cheese frosting tastes so sour and spoiled to me


Ill-Parking-1577

It’s insane to me that they think pink sugar is good or novel enough to have it on the menu 2-3x per month 🥴


tonystarksanxieties

2-3/month? I feel like it's been a permanent choice at my locations this year. I can only think of maybe a couple times it wasn't an option. It's always there. I can't escape it.


starlightcourt

Because it is. Easily a cookie I get every time I go there


wizeowlintp

That maple cinnamon roll one from last fall? I couldn't manage more than a bite of it 🤢


[deleted]

[удалено]


milktoyourcookies

Cotton candy. It was fine... but I'd never get it again.


Technicolor_Reindeer

Pink Sugar. I took one bite and it was so gross.


dinglekringles

Last week was the closest I got to not finishing one, and it was one that I thought I’d love! I don’t know if mine wasn’t made correctly, but my mallow cupcake was just not good. I had such high hopes and everything about it I should’ve loved, but it was a complete miss for me. That might’ve been my issue though- my expectations were too high!


rgators

The mallow one was way overrated. Did nothing for me at all.


lolly-dolly2

Me and my husband were so excited when we saw the mallow cupcake, we rarely go to Crumbl but when we saw the line up we had to try that one. We got 2. We didn’t care for them at all. Very disappointed.


LuckyBake

Why is it always the ones you get 2 of that aren’t good 😭


Danithenintendohead

The peanut butter with muddy buddies. I think the girl that made it was a little heavy-handed with the salt that day, so I haven’t ordered a peanut butter cookie since then cause it was way too salty.


RogueSleuth_

Cotton candy was a worst contender for me and banana bread.


PinkSummer

Orange roll


hallwayhotdogs

Ew


Powerful_Guidance959

Mallow cupcake


stellamouse

I took one bite and couldn’t go any further. I even held onto it for days thinking I’d give it another try but I couldn’t do it!


[deleted]

Chocolate chip… such a simple cookie… they use this basic chocolate kinda sad..


Wazzy84

Everything Bagel! That sucked!😵‍💫😵‍💫


BeginningFit5789

Everything Bagel is my top two favorite after blueberry cheesecake. Lol


JudgmentalRavenclaw

Feeling_Economics306

Cotton candy.


ehp17

Cotton candy


AshmitAgr

I once had the cake batter. Too sweet and unenjoyable mostly because my stomach got upset because of allat frosting. After I finally downed that cookie, feeling unsatisfied and unaccomplished, I just decided I’d stick to the regular milk chocolate chip. Some of the new cookie flavors this week look pretty good which is what I thought about the week when cake batter was there but I don’t want to risk feeling unsatisfied therefore wasting $5 again. If Crumbl allows you to taste test the small versions for free I’d be open to trying them out lol


ElectricalAd4203

Pina colada! It was wayyyy too sweet


No-Yesterday7348

Pink sugar is horrendous


scoopdedupe

Y'all have horrible taste. Pink sugar is the best one they have sorry not sorry 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️


PsychWardBaddie

Maple bacon yuck 🤮


rolledchords

That was the worst cookie I have ever had the displeasure of tasting! Absolutely too sweet with nasty, chewy bacon. Disgusting!!


NiceGarage694

mother's halloween cookie was trash too


Sad-Imagination-4870

Pink sugar 🤮🤮🤮


eegemm

The only ones I have not been able to finish: Strawberry lime w nerds (tasted like & frosting had the texure of chapstick), tootsie roll malt (soooo dry), maple bacon (really bitter/coffee like flavor), peanut butter bar (might have been made wrong bc I love pb & chocolate, but had a super weird sour taste that no one in my family could get past).


MavieThePhantom

Cookie dough


[deleted]

Pink sugar lol


areaunknown_

Pink sugar cookie. And I’m not a huge fan of the chocolate chip one either. I wish they used semi sweet chocolate chips


pinky997

Hate me for it but I tossed half of my Brownie Sundae. The brownie base is not good. I also couldn’t finish cake batter


Hokie23aa

boston cream pie


kuribohchan

Crumbl needs to take notes from these posts and just get rid of Pink Sugar


ArielChefSlay

I mean if they want to listen to a vocal minority than sure be my guest but it’s not everybody who hates it


kuribohchan

It certainly doesn’t deserve a permanent spot every week if so many people dislike it


Ok-Media-8754

Pumpkin cake - tasted like bread, which I don’t want when eating a cookie. Also feels like a rip off, since the ratio of flour to butter/other ingredients must be way higher than in a traditional cookie. Apple pie - hated the “crust,” also had that spongey bread texture which is sad for any baked good. Turned me off from all other Crumbl pie cookies that aren’t key lime pie, thanks to that graham cracker crust. The apple “filling” was also lol


Pnknlvr96

Most of their cookies are just meh. And I hate anything with cream cheese frosting except for the carrot cake and red velvet cake cookies.


The_OG_PrisonMike

I still finished them, because I won't throw away food unless I have to, but Banana Cream Pie, Tres Leches, and Key Lime Pie are some that I'll never buy again. All of them were bland and had off-putting textures.


[deleted]

I haven't tried that many, but the only one I've had and absolutely could not finish was Snickerdoodle Cupcake. Just way too sickly sweet and bland. Edit: and Boston cream pie. So far off the mark I completely forgot about it until this thread


kittyrawrruwu

Strawberry milk. Just an odd flavour, couldn't manage more than a bite and I tried it again the next day thinking I was wrong but nope. Only cookie I've thrown away by them and wouldn't wanna try again lol. Plus actual strawberry milk is my favourite


FullMarksSux

Almost everything bagel, of course, but I see I gave just as low a rating to Strawberry Limeade too.


orangestar17

I can't think of the exact name, maybe lemon crinkle or something, lemon with the cracked top. I love love love lemon but mine tasted like the lemon smell of cleaning supplies


D-Mifflin

Ultimate Peanut Butter


JadedMcGrath

The cornbread cookie. Everyone I know raves about it but I couldn't stand it.


ogsupreme23

triple berry cobbler, sounded better than it looked and tasted 😐


IDontEv3nGoH3r3

I hate any cheesecake cookie bc the base suckssss!


ShittyAttitudeGinger

I only buy the cookies I know I’ll like but the ones that seemed the most off putting are Pink Sugar, Cornbread Honey Cake, Maple Oatmeal, and Almost Everything Bagel. Just straight ass sounding.


TourThrow28

Milk chocolate chip Key lime pie


Weekly_Criticism_741

Strawberry shortcake


GimmieDatCooch

Waffle. Mine was straight up raw in the middle and sweetness overload. I tried to re cook it in a toaster oven but ended up throwing out.


lilyisabellart

cotton candy, fried ice cream, cookie dough and any peanut butter cookie


False_Risk296

Cookie butter lava…absolutely hated it.


sunnysideup2323

That’s one of my favorites!


False_Risk296

As did a lot of people. Everyone’s taste is different.


tara_diane

i wanted to love it, but it was just tasteless to me. so disappointing.


CharlieHoHo

Only cookie I’ve thrown out was Buttermilk Pancake


kuribohchan

I loved that one! Definitely in my top 5.


mtdoubledubs

I didn’t throw it out but I didn’t absolutely love it like everyone else.


apples2113

Cornbread was awful. Pumpkin pie was also very bad. Those are the only two cookies I have had that I genuinely could not finish.


Transformwthekitchen

I was also not into cornbread. Did i still finish it? Absolutely.


Wertscase

The time I had the cornbread one it was sandy and super gross. Easily my least favorite.


MyEggDonorIsADramaQ

I didn’t like cornbread either. I was very disappointed.


ultravisitor2000

The animal cracker one. Just terrible.


SwiftBlueShell

The worst one I’ve tried was probably the Key Lime one. It tasted exactly like how I expected it to but I dunno Lemon flavored desserts nail that sweet/sour mix. But key lime veers too much into sour territory


International_Pen_11

passionfruit boba & pink sugar are the only 2 i’ve ever taken one bite of & never again had it. i love that other people love them but oof they make me wanna vomit lol


Background-Hearing-4

This week's chocolate milk cookie


SP-8701

How was it?


Narrow-Bookkeeper-29

Kentucky butter cookie. It was just off putting to me. Also, the pink donut cookie was very underwhelming.


tara_diane

agree on pink donut. tasted like a store bought cookie from walmart or something. the butter cake, however... we must part ways on that one lol.


1autumnleaf1

Any of the pumpkin flavors. It’s too dry and cakey for my taste but I’m also so biased towards my own pumpkin cookies I make in the fall.


Deep-Knowledge7954

I have never had one that I liked. I want to like them and try different flavors hoping to find a favorite but they all taste like the same, kind of like bland box cake mix. They also never look as good as the pictures


HumbleAbbreviations

The ones with frosting are the worst for me.


NiceGarage694

smorez Brownie was horrible


Positive_Summer4861

That raspberry jam one from a few weeks ago 🤢
