So this is the very first post I have seen here. I came here after seeing you at Ezra Klein's blog - I had a reccomendation to read you from someone at a different blog so I clicked your name.
What is interesting is that I, too, am a huge fan of stale, previously crunchy cookies. Although, while I found Lab Cat's explanation of starches fascinating, it has no influence on my odd cookie preferences. Personaly, I love stale Oreos best, you?
Thanks for the link. Some people just like soft cookies! I prefer mine crunchy.

I love stale Oreos, and Chessmen, and Dutch Spekulaas.
Me too! I thought I was alone with my stale cookie fetish! But it's not just the softer texture, the taste improves also.
