Chomp Into Chocolate Chip Cookie Day With These Delicious GIFs

Today is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day, but “national” sounds far too limiting. This hallowed holiday deserves to be celebrated worldwide. After all, everyone loves chocolate chip cookies. You’d have to be a monster not to.

OK, bad example. But the point is chocolate chip cookies are among the few things we can all generally agree on in this crazy world — even if we have differing preferences within the genre.

Stare long enough and this will burn into your brain. You’re welcome.

Like ’em chewy and gooey? You’re not wrong.

Prefer thin and crispy? That’s correct, too.

Think the dough stands on it’s own? Money.

That’s because chocolate chip cookies aren’t just tasty, they’re reliable — and always rise to any occasion.

Having a bad day? A good chocolate chip cookie will turn your frown upside down.

Time to celebrate? Ain’t no party like a chocolate chip cookie party.

And don’t try to excuse nonparticipation today by blaming dietary restrictions. Vegan and gluten-free versions aren’t exactly hard to find in 2017.

They’re vegan. Promise.

Many people love dunking chocolate chip cookies in milk.

Some even give them a swirl.

Is that water or skim milk?

Elite connoisseurs go to great lengths to soak up the maximum experience.

Softens skin, too!

So even if you’ve never craved chocolate chip cookies the way most people do, give them another shot.

If you’re still not convinced, that just leaves more for the rest of us. And that’s the way the cookie crumbles.
