when he said that I immediately had to think of a specific German shortcrust cookie that's called "Heidesand" (that would be... Heathland sand? they're from a place called Lüneburg Heath) so for me that sounded like a normal cookie comparison lol
It's dumb, but my generation collected cardboard circles with pictures on them, and thought clown sized pants were cool. Guess we should have saved those pants for the future cookie eaters.
As a former Crumbl employee myself, I can say that the bad frosting jobs are the employees cries for help. 100/10 would not recommend getting a job here.
As someone who has worked crumbl, people forget we are technically still a fast food place. None of us are bakers, the training we get is basically nonexistent and yes we work for almost nothing. We get paid minimum wage (7.25 per hour). There are no breaks since they schedule each shift just under the 8 hour mark and have managers working 39 hours to avoid giving them benefits. Crumbl is literally just a fast food place just instead of fry oil its butter. Edit: I live in Texas so minimum wage is 7.25 and there are no laws about breaks. Also all crumbls are independently owned so the policy can change however this was the experience of people working at the crumbls in my area (we had 3 crumbls in my mid-small sized city). Luckily for me, i did not need my crumbl paycheck to live but i did need a job (would’ve taken any job as long as it paid ngl, even McDonalds which is a nightmare in my area) for spending money for college and paying for college.
The only thing that triggered me from the video was the girl who mentioned they don't get breaks and how it's the first job for most of them. That's exactly why they're being taken advantage of. Places like fast food, retail, call centers, they *know* that their employees are young, inexperienced and likely at their first job, it's why they get away with the abuse that they do - people don't speak up because they don't know better. Not because they're not smart, not at all, but because they haven't had the chance to experience something better. And the employers know that, and it's disgusting.
The fact that a single doughnut from Krispy Kreme and a single doughnut from Dunkin COMBINED is still somehow half as many calories as a single cookie from Crumbl makes me question how anyone is able to eat half a dozen of Crumbl cookies and NOT spike their blood sugar to the point of hospitalization.
@@frenchpotato2852 Its crazy.. I think each crumbl cookie is like 800+ calories per cookie. I think ive seen one of their cookies at 1200 calories one time too?? To put that in perspective to a place like krispy kreme, 1 glazed donut from krispy kreme is 190 cals, 1 cinnamon roll from krispy kreme is 280 cals, and 1 filled donut is 290-350. If you ate all that I listed from krispy kreme (1 glazed donut, 1 cinnamon roll, and the highest calorie filled donut), that'd be the same amount of calories as ONE crumbl cookie cookie, some of their cookies being even higher in calories than that..
@@MagicUnicrnYT sweet jolly rancher, that number is Lethal 💀 but i can see that how the cookies is very soft indicated high butter content. I prefer harder cookies that didn't melt on milk or yogurt.
I used to work at a crumbl, and might be one of the few in this comment section who genuinely enjoyed the job. Part of this was the superb management team and the great owner, and the fact that I lived in a state with a very high minimum wage. They were super relaxed and appreciated work, and rewarded it too. Plus I was allowed to take home as many as I wanted.
@@randomprotag9329 Yeah. It just so happened that my boss had connections with the corporate office and was a great person, but also that she had experience in both the Crumbl stores as well. The store 20 minutes from me was nowhere near as good.
From a chef’s perspective, they are damn near always underbaked and they frost them when they are still hot. A lovely combo for over-rated cookie dough.
Is that why I always dislike the texture when I get them?? People act shocked when I say I’m really not impressed by Crumbl. I’m not even trying to be edgy when I say they are painfully mid. It’s just not a great cookie!!!
There's so many cookies both online and offline. The best ones are usually found offline. Sometimes we get overwhelmed by the things we see online rather than the things we see offline.
@@kaizzen7942 as someone who can't afford an oven and also lives far from a store that sells cookies, i unfortunately relate. Despite that, I'm never buying a Crumbl cookie if it was ever sold in my country
Crumbl Cookies are actual physical contradictions. Somehow insanely sweet AND bland; too dry BUT ALSO raw; baked fresh daily… but they’re stale? I dunno how they do it, man.
Crumbl cookies are exactly like those sugar cookies from the grocery store you either hate them or you'll love them. Also add-on, when I went to crumble after a few bites of their cookie I felt like i was going to be sick. Watching people eat 4 to 6 cookies at a time makes me wince.
@@CertifiedProcrastinator. KML.... I just use the prepackaged mixes and my phone as a timer ... Not as good as my grandma's but at least they're cooked all the way through 😄
I worked there 8 months pregnant, wasn't allowed to sit and was told to move heavy boxes that were unsafe. Fuck crumbl cookies from the bottom of my heart
@thelittlemuffet it's a cookie shop, absolutely not fast food. It was an easy job, I was just not able to safely move flour. When did I say I was slow?
I worked for Thriftbooks in Portland, OR at 8 months pregnant. They were so kind to me and allowed me to take days off whenever I needed them. Honestly it chokes me up a little bit how much empathy I felt from the managers there. They are a great company to work for and when I had to quit they told me I was always welcome back.
I used to work at crumbl. It was my first job. I was a baker, which meant I did literally everything. I mixed cookies, weighed and shaped them, baked them, frosted them, ran the register, etc. I got paid 8.00 and hour and our manager took our tips. The customers were extremely entitled and the cookies are ridiculously bad for you. One of my coworkers got into a car accident and my boss got him an Uber because she didn't wanna come and cover the shift. We reported this behavior and nothing was done.
Oh and, if your cookies look bad, it's because we were rushed and not given enough time to actually make them. Andcwe ship them through Uber so if something if smashed or wrong, it could also be that.
Crumbl is also my first job and have been working there for basically 9 months now 😭 and I can definitely relate to not being paid enough for the sheer amount of work we have to do as bakers 🫠
the first time i heard that they come up with new flavors *every* week, i immediately knew that they must be super overrated. a business that comes up with a new product every single week doesn’t care about quality. you hit the nail on the head with the FOMO thing.
If you watch the menu from week to week there's a bunch of mixing and matching and re-combining. It's not as many new things as most people think at first glance. There's always some sort of chocolate chip. Pretty much all the cinnamon ones use the same snickerdoodle base. All the sugar cookies have the same base, just different toppings. Things like that. The mega chocolatey cookie might have caramel swirls in it one week, chocolate chunks another week, or get the brookie (brownie/cookie swirl) treatment.
They don’t come up w a new flavor every week. And, it’s not hard to have core flavors that you rotate around. Like Baskin Robbin’s. Generally we call them seasonal flavors. Or summer/fall/winter/spring menus.
i gotta be honest i saw the thumbnail and was like "why is 6 cookies in 1 week bad? that's like nothing?" and then i watched and. lordy. i think if i consumed that much sugar in one sitting i would shit myself to death. and thats coming from someone who LIKES sweets. those cookies are HUGE.
Yeah... I've gotten Crumbl stuff a few times. Their stuff isn't just big, it's DENSE (likely because of the under-cooking). I swear they weigh almost a pound per cookie. I tend to go for 1/4 of a cookie at a time, or half of one if I'm really treating myself.
There's a cupcake shop in Chillicothe that did specialized cupcakes don't know if it's still running around or not but I can only eat like a quarter of each flavor before I started feeling like I was diabetic
@@HumbleWooperyea Crumbl is DENSE. I bought one once to try it and it was heavy. It was the most normal cookie too, just a chocolate chip T-T. A friend of mine who loves sweets got a frosted one and she said it was like it stung as she ate it
Crumbl was founded in my hometown which I used to think was super cool. Then one of my friends worked in the warehouse and their working conditions and managers were horrible (I'm looking at you, Ben from Crumbl). Then they decided to sue all the other cookie companies around and I have never had a Crumbl cookie since. :3
HSHDJDJ REALLY? lol, imagine being that greedy and egotistical enough to freaking SUED bakeries as if they are the only ONE to invent the existence of cookies 💀💀💀
Crumbl cookies are so disgustingly sweet, that I couldn’t eat even half a cookie. Not worth it when there’s a Japanese and a Korean bakery right down the street near me.
According to an Ex-Mormon TH-camr I follow who used to work there, sometimes Crumbl uses Betty Crocker mix. Like why claim your cookies are made from scratch when you use it from a box? He does talk about it in one of he and his wife's videos. And in case anyone was wondering... Yes. Crumbl is a Mormon company. Hence why they tend to hire younger people.
There's a small farm near me. Husband and wife duo. They sell eggs, jams, cheeses, but the wife enjoys making baked goods too. Cinnamon rolls and cookies are her specialty. Both of which are delicious. I've never been to Crumbl -- there's one nearby, but when I want cookies that I don't want to make, I'll choose Ms. Andie's cookies every time. 😋
Just fyi something being under baked doesn't mean it's raw. As long as it's cooked to a certain internal temp it's safe to eat. Never gotten sick from eating crumbl or any "underbaked" dessert
Bruh, the raw cookie crumbling was disgusting. Holy crap. Edit: Never thought having a properly baked cookie was a flex. Bye bye $, hello Miss Salmonella
I remember reading somewhere on Reddit that someone got food poisoning from Crumbl. They ate a raw cookie, but thought it was "normal" because Crumbl Cookies are known to be like that. Even people in the subreddit were saying how "normal" it is for their cookies to be raw and boneless. 😭
@@withlovetumi that subreddit is bizarrely cult like and aggressive with people who are critical of the cookies. Very strange and I can't tell whether the people are just THAT into crumbl or it's corporate employees getting pissed lol
@@MeeYeeWeeWee It's insane how hard people go for these underbaked cookies. I've seen several of the subreddit members get upset at Crumbl repeating the same cookies on certain weeks. I'm talking genuinely furious! I know people have their favorite bakeries. However, Crumbl being one of them, especially for those prices and quality is wild. 😭
I worked at Crumbl and everything the tiktoker said was true about the working conditions but also…the quality of the cookies sucks because 1) they intentionally underbake them. My manager used to tell us it didn’t matter if they were underbaked because they would sit in the warmer for hours which would “keep baking them” 2) They hire staff with no experience and just throw them into baking and icing cookies, so the presentation looks terrible because people don’t know what they’re doing 3) They have 3 people doing the job of 8 at any given time, and they don’t give you breaks so all of the employees are running around tired, hungry, sore, stressed, etc. So your cookies turn out like shit because the entire process is being rushed and half-assed lol. I lasted in the job for a month and I physically couldn’t take it anymore 😅 I’m 30. I think the people who manage to stay there longer are teenagers because they don’t know that a job shouldn’t be like that. But yeah, don’t waste the money and calories on Crumbl.
@@white_tulip2189 yes it does and things like icing and buttercream will melt, but it will probably give the illusion that the cookies aren't dried out after several hours
I actually used to work at a Crumbl. Hated every second of it. The TIKTOK at 10:30 sums it up pretty well. There was no break area, just the back area, and a small shelf thing with bags of chips and fruit snacks. At the location I was working at, the manager would constantly belittle me and my friend who were working there during our senior year of high school, I was constantly yelled at for not being able to ball a sticky af dough fast enough (hated the texture of how it felt and had to change gloves constantly) and taking a break to eat some chicken nuggets I got from the Target next door (I wound up only being able to eat half of the container and had to throw the rest away). OH, and I was always on closing shifts which technically ended at 10;30 but then the same manager told me, to my face, that being on the closing shift meant I had to stay until all the work was done. I didn't have my license at the time, so I was relying on my parents, I was not going to make them wait until possibly 2 am (fresh out of high school btw) because then I wouldn't have a way home. Long story short, awful place to work, do not go there
@@trashpanda4189 sounds like typical food service work to me, based on my experience. Definitelt not saying it's right but this isn't a Crumbl issue. This is a general issue of corporations abusing their workforce which is mostly poor and/or young.
I'm sharing a recipe for a tray of oat-choco chip cookies which you'll bake yourself so they aren't raw. You'll get a lot of them because you know small cookies cook better, so you won't be eating raw dough. Bonus points: because you now have a lot of cookies, you can share instead of film yourself eating them like a gremlin: Mix all the ingredients in the following order with dough hooks: 1 egg ½ cup room temperature butter or margarine ¾ cup packed brown sugar The contents of 1 vanilla pod 1 pinch of cinnamon 1 ½ cup cooking oats ¾ cup flour 1 tsp baking soda 1 pinch salt 1 cup (or more) pure chocolate chips Ready a baking tray with baking paper. Keep the tray out of the oven while you pre-heat it. Pre-heat your oven on 220 C° or 430 F° Time to get your hands dirty! Use one sheet of baking paper to split all the dough in even two's, until you end up with portions out of which you could roll a ball of about 4-5 cm, or something not bigger than 2 inch. When you have even portions, start rolling balls and line them up on the baking tray. When you have all the little dough balls on your baking tray and you are satisfied with the size, use the palm of your hand to squish them into a coin shape. Bake 15-20 minutes. Enjoy!
@@ktg3811 I Frankensteined this recipe from at least 6 or 7 different oat-choco-chip cookie recipes, and have been baking it for almost a decade by now. It's definitely my favourite cookie recipe to bake. Tested, tried and true. And I am saying this as the type of weirdo that makes the ladyfingers for Tiramisu from the scratch, and makes macarons so well that my French expat neighbour is always readily available to take any overflow I can't fit in my freezer off my hands. I promise this recipe is workable.
Like Ed said: it's being influenced by something. It can be done to you even by family or friends. If you're surrounded by family members or friends in your life who are constantly doing, eating or even wearing a certain thing a lot of people will try it themself out of curiosity. Social media is like that on a mass scale. Something can suddenly gain massive exposure and other people get curious of what it is and also want to try it. Soon enough it becomes a trend. Even before social media this kind of behaviour can be seen happening throughout history especially with things like fashion. You can see it even in ways like if you're surrounded by people who talk a certain way you may be influenced by their way of talking. It's the nature of human beings. But more people need to know how to think for themself and see what's uneccessary
There's a small bakery in my town that specializes in classic treats that are kinda supersized like crumbl, yknow chocolate chip cookies and brownies, they all taste like they were baked with love by your favorite auntie and the lady who runs it is so sweet. Most towns have a small business like hers, making amazing treats that are better than the trendy chain mistreating their workers, this is a sign to look around your town if you haven't found a fav small bakery yet :)
On a similar note, whenever I'm on a road trip (since 2021) I try to avoid any chain restaurants, coffee shops, etc. in favor of small businesses. This way I've found many hidden gems that have a more welcoming atmosphere and unique setting - not just a bland, minimalist layout that focus on efficiency - and the food/drinks are often better too. Support locally owned businesses!
Wow that really puts some light on the power of marketing. That's why I prefer to support small businesses, they probably do not have the contacts and money to shove your social media with ads and influencers or just want to keep it local to maintain quality.
I had a friend who worked in their corporate offices and she told me everyone with an executive or high position slept their way to get there (women AND the men). Told me everything I needed to know about Crumbl.
I've never gotten a raw cookie from crumbl. I guess it just depends on the location but I suspect a lot of people just think that "underbaked" means raw, which it doesn't. Personally underbaked is how a cookie should be because I don't want hockey pucks as cookies lol
It’s like they assume no one has heard of a food stylist. For those promotional photo shoots Crumbl employs a TEAM of individuals to very selectively create and edit individual cookies. They will literally spend HOURS on shooting those things, and employ tactics that render the product inedible. Gloss, varnish, paint, glycerin, fixative sprays, food coloring-hell, maybe even stuff like petroleum jelly and hairspray. The product you see in ads is NEVER comparable to what an actual store is going to produce. But what do you expect with a trash company making a profit off a cheap and unhealthy item like a crappy cookie? And people wonder why we’re all fat, sick and broke.
Not him saying "having a fully baked cookie so we don't get sick is something we can all agree on" and me awkwardly remembering all the times I have slammed a whole pack of raw cookie dough on my own in a sitting stoppp 😭
I’ve been working at crumbl for over a year and a half and I swear to god, the customers have never been more rude than they are now. THEYVE BECOME TOO ENTITLED TO THEIR COOKIES 🙌
Lol, I remember getting those types all the time when I worked there. Most of the time I was the one to deal with them because I could talk them into some type of sense🤷
I used to work at Crumbl and they attract the worst customers. This one woman yelled at a sixteen year old girl for the kitchen being out of a flavor until she cried. I ended up leaving for different reasons, but crumbl customers are some of the worse customers I’ve dealt with and I’ve worked at a sports stadium.
Fun Fact: when you're in manufacturing, it takes time to make something look nice and good. When your boss/client screams you gotta be faster, you take shortcuts and then you end up with a mess...
@@keyadraws There's a lot that goes into manufacturing that we don't ever think about and the cost of it all adds up at the end of the day. In the company I work at, labor is a big expense. The longer it takes to make the product, the more expensive it becomes because the person making it is being paid per hour. The person designing the product, the person handling the costings, the technical person, even the driver all plays a role in the final product. In a bakery, your ovens uses a lot of electricity, so your product will become more expensive depending on the electricity price. Now you're in a recession and the prices of eggs and flour goes up, this means you're products price also increases to compensate for the extra price you're paying. You still need to make enough money to pay your workers, pay the rent, pay the electricity, etc. Then on top of that you need to make a profit too.
As someone from the Cookie Chain Capitol Of The US (Utah) literally EVERY time we’d get cookies, we’d cut them into QUARTERS and share them. People eating a whole cookie or two in one sitting, let alone SIX, is psychotic
Yeah ngl, it’s the people who have sugar addictions. I’m glad we’re finally talking about this, crumbl is a danger to those with no self control, it’s why I don’t eat there anymore.
Crumbl seems to underbakes their cookies. While it's valid to pull cookies slightly underbaked for optimal texture, Crumbl has been known to take them out too early. For example, if a cookie has a bake time of 10-13 minutes, most would pull them at 9½ minutes to finish baking with residual heat. Crumbl, in this example, pulls them around 8 minutes. This, and the fact that they sometimes, vaguely, justify the use of their warmers as if to say "they finish baking there!" Which. Warmers ≠ ovens. The cookies can be done correctly,but Crumbl has little consistency throughout their franchises and you end up with raw cookies more often than not. I've refused to eat anything from Crumbl since I found out. I'd trust a more established bakery, or myself, to get a safe "gooey" cookie. Probably cheaper too.
my mom buys a box of crumbl cookies like once every three months and we usually split them all by 4 ways (there’s three of us) and usually don’t finish them until 4 or 5 days
I had it once after a cheer competition cause the rest of my teammates wanted to go, and that was the first time I had even heard about the place. I ended up just getting a single sugar cookie cause I didn’t want to jump into so much and the sizes kinda scared me, and all I remember was that I couldn’t even finish it because it was so ungodly sweet, like the kind of sweet where your mouth tingles and feels kind of sour if you know what I mean. I don’t think I even finished half of it 😅
My sister-in-law got a box of these as a gift when I was staying with them, and it took 3 adults and 3 preschool-age children more than 3 days to eat them! They're so rich and sugary! Admittedly, the kids would have tried to eat at least a whole cookie by themselves but they have smart parents who sliced the cookies like pie, because kids with belly problems aren't fun for anyone!
They are. Back when I had the fattest sweet tooth and would eat a variety of snacks all in one sitting, I had crumbl sometimes but could BARELY finish even half of the cookie.
I only ever got crumbl cookies from my moms friend as a gift cause she heard I was having a hard time, and when I tell you the flavors weren’t flavors. The flavor profiles were absolutely devoured by sugar. Like they were literally more sugary than whipped cream.
@@cyberwitch7161 It’s more that the only flavor profile in whipped cream, at least the type bought for my household, is only sugar and cream. So when I say “more sugary than whipped cream” I mean that somehow the flavor profiles are so masked by sugar that I can’t even taste the secondary flavor like the cream in whipped cream. And tbh whipped cream is quite sugary for my tastes, even when homemade. I prefer a light sweetness that isn’t one of the only main flavor profiles.
Ngl due to recent ALR events I thought “crumbl” was from a typo she made….not a brand. I’d like to go back to being unaware of this being an actual company making these godawful monster cookies. Crawling back under my happy little rock now 😅
I am so glad I’m not the only one who found this unintentional crossover… 😅 And bonus crossover(ish) content, that is the first I’ve ever heard “big back” outside of FB saying it 🙃
I worked at crumbl cookies as my first job in high school and it was hell. with the doughy-ness, it could be the location/cookie type. it’s been a couple of years, but I know with the sugar cookie based cookies, they were cooked for 14 minutes, and the other were cooked at 16 minutes. with presentation, again, location :/ you’re being rushed to produce so many cookies, especially when it’s busy, so they won’t all be perfect. everything is done by weight, so some cookies appear smaller, but in reality, they all weigh the same. Some just don’t spread out as much when baking :/
I have the recipe for the crumbl sugar cookies and I make them pretty often. The reason it’s mushy in the middle is because they take them out too soon then let them solidify to have a “doughy” middle. When I make them I cook them longer so my cookies aren’t straight up raw
People either need to learn how to bake (sugar cookies aren’t that hard to make) or they just need to find a local bakery that makes good cookies. 30$ for 6 cookies is a crime
Cookies are so easy to make. I usually make my own with flax seed “eggs” or applesauce instead of eggs. It’s cheaper, healthier, more ethical and they taste better. And you can actually eat the dough without getting sick. Also I use plant based butter. Tastes the same as butter from cows milk but is healthier, less fattening.
For real or if you're lazy like me lol you can also use those ready to bake betty crocker cookie packs where all you have to do is just add water or egg
@TerraBranford873 what else would make you sick? I've never felt ill from eating vegan cookie dough before where as I felt ill several times from non vegan cookie dough
Thank you for doing this video. As someone who has been overweight since grade school, Crumbl Cookie was my lowest low point that made my finally decide to change my habits at 32. I remember sitting in my car outside one of their locations thinking, "I don't even want a cookie. I know its bad for me and I'll hide the evidence so I don't feel ashamed later. It will make me feel terrible. I don't want this. Why am I still going to go inside?" At that point it became very clear that it was addiction behavior and I had to get control. I've lost almost 30 pounds since then! For anyone else struggling with the same thing, exercise is NOT actually that great of a weight loss tool, controlling your diet is how you lose weight. The whole "you can walk for 30 minutes to burn off a soda!" thing is perpetuated by fast food companies who want you to think having excessive terrible foods is something you can "counter" with exercise, but your body will adjust within a few weeks and your weight loss will plateau. The strategy that has worked amazingly for me when nothing else has is intermittent fasting / 'One Meal a Day' eating. Look into it but also be sure to still get your daily nutrition needs!
For real, diets help way more than exercise in terms of losing weight imo. They don't even have to be strict, you can just not eat when you're not hungry and you'll still lose weight
@@karenwang313 That's not what they were talking about though? They just said that diet has a bigger influence on weight loss than exercise. Of course ideally you would include both in your lifestyle, but that's not what was discussed here.
I think the problem is that you're framing this as losing weight = being healthier, which is just blatantly untrue and there are dozens and dozens of research studies that prove it. Losing weight is not always a bad thing to want, but the goal of a HEALTHY diet and exercise is to BE HEALTHY- not conform to a body standard and hit a goal on a scale. I am somebody that has been fat their whole life and also pretty physically and mentally unwell. A few years ago I went really hard on diet and exercise and, while it did help bring my a1c levels out of the pre-diabetic range, to be honest? I lost 50 pounds and didn't feel better in any way. There was no improvement to my health aside from that one number, all of the problems I was having were still happening just as much. I still practice a lot of that stuff, but I've gained back weight now, and that's because it was not the weight that was making me unhealthy. Obviously there are cases where being fat can affect health, like with the increased likelihood of having sleep apnea, but being fat is not inherently unhealthy. I doubt you meant for your comment to be harmful, but this type of thinking can do a lot more harm than good. Losing weight is one of the hardest thing a person can do- again, though diet fads and health influencers will tell you otherwise, studies and research have proved that humans are not built to lose weight and doing so can be difficult at best and dangerous at worst. Videos like this obviously call into concern how much sugar and unhealthy stuff we eat on a daily basis, but the creator didn't bring weight into it and neither should you. The concern is HEALTH, not losing weight.
I got a free crumbl cookie on my birthday (fun fact, its free on your bday) and it took me three days to eat because it was so sweet! At least it was free!
I go to a college with overfunded dorm hall clubs so I often get free food, including cookies from both Crumbl and their main competitor, Insomnia. Insomnia CLEARS, but their model is mostly opening near college campuses and having clubs buy their cookies in bulk. They don't market online nearly as hard as crumbl from what I can tell, but they do numbers at colleges due to their strategy. They actually feel and taste like high-end cookies as well. idk how they do it but they're so much better than crumbl.
as someone who grew up in a poor/food impoverished house and am now living on a somewhat normal budget but still living paycheck to paycheck, I will never understand overconsumption and following an influencer. The ONLY time I’ve ever wanted to do what an influencer does is that ice girl bc I LOVE ice and fruit and drinks. And the sugar consumption from crumbl + the price? Oh my god ew you couldn’t pay me to get that 🤢
I was a professional baker for *years* and this stupid underbaked thing has been my personal Tartarus since my first Subway cookie. They’ve already got their cookie dough coming in frozen! Just chuck it in a preheated oven until it’s actually cooked and the center will still be soft and chewy! And if they want to make it even more fool proof, use a different flour instead of all purpose and/or substitute in 1-2 tbsp of corn starch. Underbaked is just sad.
As a baker for years too I'll actually say the opposite. Underbaked is how cookies should be!! Who wants hockey pucks for cookies? Soft and gooey is amazing. Must also say, they ARE cooked all the way through (the ones I've had are), just to the minimal so that they stay soft.
I worked at a subway back in 2017 and my manager told me that they were safe to eat “raw”. Everything is pretreated but it’s put in the oven to form that cookie shape and kind of firm them up a little. Perfectly safe to eat but the texture isn’t for everyone.
Was literally about to say this. I got one for free yesterday from the Panera workers as an apology for taking longer on my order. The cookie was a tiny bit smaller than crumble but it tasted so much better. It was better made all around with a bit of salt as well to balance out the sweetness of the cookie
Panera’s cookies are way better the chocolate chip and kitchen sink are the perfect balance of crunchy and chewy and right amount of sweetness. They’re also cost less and good quality.
I'll say this once and I'll say it again BAKE YOUR OWN COOKIES, go to the store, get the ingredients and LEARN HOW TO MAKE THEM YOURSELVES. They taste way better, and you can have that same variety while getting better at baking and decorating cookies.
I get the appeal of Crumbl (since changing flavors weekly is a fun idea) but their cookies are always soooo underbaked 😔It also feels super unwelcoming inside with the industrialized white lighting
I LOVE cookies so much that I recently learned how to bake them myself! It was so exciting and fulfilling to mix ingredients together, pop them in the oven, and pull out a delicious batch of treats. But ever since I started making my own cookies, I've stopped buying from commercial stores. I feel better about it though because I know what goes into the cookies I'm eating now, I can control the sweetness and butter content, and I can portion them better. I've never tried Crumbl cookies (am not from the West) but those look bonkers. They're so big and look so sugary. They scare me a little bit...and like I said, I LOVE cookies 😂
@Charlielemon-j9j Pick some classic recipes and follow them closely. Also when baking, cook your first batch a bit less time than recommend to see how they turn out. You can always put them back in, but you can't unburn it and every oven/climate cooks a bit different. You will also mess some up but it's fine, that's part of learning. Have fun!
@@Charlielemon-j9j start with classic, OG chocolate chip cookies. I recommend Sally's Baking Addiction or Preppy Kitchen's recipes, they are my go-tos!

As someone who used to eat a gang of cookies when I was younger, sugar can be incredibly addicting. I don’t eat like that anymore and balance the amount of sugary drinks and foods I eat daily. Now I’m looking at things like crumbl cookies (and even Dunkin) as foods that can cause death by too much sugar intake. The fact that they’re eating over 600 grams of sugar for a trend is concerning as heck… Insulin shock is not a joke, I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy..
I used to work at crumbl cookie. You only got a 15 minute break if you worked a 10 hour shift. The Gm would regularly cut hours from full time (38 hours max cause they wouldn’t let u hit 40) to 2 days a week yet complain that they couldn’t keep any workers. Also the pay is HORRIBLE. $8 an hour plus tips, and no benefits.
Whenever my boss wants to treat us to something fun in the middle of the week it's always Crumbl cookies and we're all just splitting them into quarters in the break room like nah dude you aren't about to fatten us up and give us the diabetes so you can replace us with newbies at the base pay rate. Gtfoh😂
I honestly can’t understand either on why/how people can consume so much sugar in one sitting. I personally feel kind of sick when I eat anything more than a palm-sized chocolate chip cookie.
i think they're conditioned for it. i was at lunch the other day and a mom and her little girl came in. they sat beside us and i saw what they'd ordered. mom got a full sandwich and chips and a large soda and the little girl - no more than 4 - had a large soda too (she couldn't even lift it was so big for her) and a bag of chips and that was her lunch. when you eat like that since childhood, you just get used to feeling that way i guess. it's sad.
I tried a basic vanilla cake batter a few weeks ago, I got so sick from all the sugar after just eating a 1/4 of it. I eat a healthy balanced diet just about everyday with some cheat treats once in a blue moon but this was a whole different level of sick.
Like some other people here, I used to work for crumbl a few years back . Personally it wasn’t a horrible job , they did definitely work us a bit hard, we had to work fast . But honestly I found it pretty enjoyable, I also did have a 2nd job as well and still felt like I was able to do it! My shift leads were nice people for the most part and made sure we took brakes, sometimes would even get us food, if not they would allow us to go and get food from nearby ! Sadly, management got worse because they let go/ fired the people actually making it a nice work experience! Was very sad. My manager seemed to be upset with me for not being able to come in for ONE shift. And did a quiet firing . Anyways that was my experience, I am sad to hear a lot of others having such a bad experience!
And it's worth trying at least once. Canada has a thing where we put cookie dough-like substances into a pan and bake it, instead of bothering to make it into individual cookies. Easier to ice that way, too. I'm surprised America hasn't caught on yet.
11:05 I worked at a Tropical Smoothie cafe and this is exactly how it was. Idk if I’ve been conditioned into hard working hours or what, but it wasn’t that bad…? We weren’t even working the entire shift because you’re not getting customers every waking moment you’re clocked in- unless it’s different for Crumbl idk
Yessss im glad someone is talking about this, cause i will see people buying these cookies and it always pisses me off with how much is being over consumed, especially with that little four way cookie cutter that they always buy, its a waste of plastic that they’re never going to use again
They range anywhere from 600,700 to 1200 calories!! That’s a fucking meal… as a Health conscious PCOS girl you would have to pay me a good amount of money to eat one of these and I am not even lying
Those cookies look gross, but I also feel that way about the donuts topped with frosting and candy and the weird cupcake craze that swept through in the mid 2010s. I guess this is just the latest iteration? I honestly do not understand why you put sugary stuff on top of an already sweet base. My only exception to that rule is ice cream... I do enjoy some chunky goodness in ice cream. :D
With ice cream it’s more of a texture thing. What they do these cookies and donuts is just too much. Just a little bit of frosting and a sprinkle of sprinkles is enough…. Not an entire candy bar on top of 10 pounds of frosting that’s gross.
@Sunshineattacks3 It tastes and feels worse then just eating a whole candy bar on something honestly. I think it's because the icing is literally mostly sugar instead of dairy or something like ice cream. Over loaded cookies like these or cupcakes are a mystery to me
I go to a cookie place and I can't find a chocolate chip cookie or a snickerdoodle. I go to a donut place and I can't find a normal cinnamon sugar ring. Its all covered in frosting, its all covered in cream, its all layered with 20 layers of random crazy stuff stuff. Just give me a normal one god. Am I the only one who thinks like this?
Chain stores are so exploitative, and it's a trap that is easy for young people to fall for because they have no other experiences to compare the working conditions to. I wasted so much time in customer service, when better paying jobs are easier.
this is a lesson to go to ur local bakers, where its portioned to size good for u, cooked all the way, and is up to health code
Local baker here got their business killed by covid and now all we have is shit chains 😔
@verybarebones naw my ass still finding a way or im baking shit myself
Panera Bread have some pretty good cookies. Crunchy on the outside and chewy in the center. Also they’re cheaper too.
My town doesnt have bakery in town so I go to subway for their cookies where they’re cooked to my personal preference.
been loyal to my local bakery since i was a kid. their cookies and pies are out of this world.
magnetic sand is unironically the most apt comparison to cookie texture i’ve ever heard
I believe it’s called kinetic sand 😂 but yeah you’re right
when he said that I immediately had to think of a specific German shortcrust cookie that's called "Heidesand" (that would be... Heathland sand? they're from a place called Lüneburg Heath) so for me that sounded like a normal cookie comparison lol
It also smells more like sand than an actual bakery when I've had to deliver from Crumbl stores. Never been more put off about a baked good
In the Netherlands we have Zandkoekjes, sandcookies, they are plain but nice.
unironically, this is how I describe my favorite texture of sugar cookie. just scratches the sensory itch in my brain.
I have no idea why its always the same type of people. The Stanley cup and fabric headband with pearls kind 😭
Yep, always the trend chasers and "I have no personality of my own" crowd. I'll never understand the appeal to be like everybody else, all the time.
It's dumb, but my generation collected cardboard circles with pictures on them, and thought clown sized pants were cool. Guess we should have saved those pants for the future cookie eaters.
Its also probably costly to keep following all these trends, so its always those that can afford them that seem to follow 'em
Cuz they are looking for some form of identity and a sense of belonging and community. It's sad.
It feels like they just want to follow trends to stay with the in-crowd. They want to be relevant or think this stuff actually matters.
As a former Crumbl employee myself, I can say that the bad frosting jobs are the employees cries for help. 100/10 would not recommend getting a job here.
That’s sad. I was thinking of getting a job there not knowing of the working conditions. Thank you for warning me.
They made me go outside to take out the trash while tornado sirens were actively going off 😂😂😂

As someone who has worked crumbl, people forget we are technically still a fast food place. None of us are bakers, the training we get is basically nonexistent and yes we work for almost nothing. We get paid minimum wage (7.25 per hour). There are no breaks since they schedule each shift just under the 8 hour mark and have managers working 39 hours to avoid giving them benefits. Crumbl is literally just a fast food place just instead of fry oil its butter.
Edit: I live in Texas so minimum wage is 7.25 and there are no laws about breaks. Also all crumbls are independently owned so the policy can change however this was the experience of people working at the crumbls in my area (we had 3 crumbls in my mid-small sized city). Luckily for me, i did not need my crumbl paycheck to live but i did need a job (would’ve taken any job as long as it paid ngl, even McDonalds which is a nightmare in my area) for spending money for college and paying for college.
@@Nick-zw3jw one of my shift leads there called it “gourmet fast food” once
Even under 8 hours, in most jobs you still get a 15 or 30 min break. That's crazy ‼
The only thing that triggered me from the video was the girl who mentioned they don't get breaks and how it's the first job for most of them. That's exactly why they're being taken advantage of. Places like fast food, retail, call centers, they *know* that their employees are young, inexperienced and likely at their first job, it's why they get away with the abuse that they do - people don't speak up because they don't know better. Not because they're not smart, not at all, but because they haven't had the chance to experience something better. And the employers know that, and it's disgusting.
Is that even legal? Minimum wage in my state is FAR above that.

The fact that a single doughnut from Krispy Kreme and a single doughnut from Dunkin COMBINED is still somehow half as many calories as a single cookie from Crumbl makes me question how anyone is able to eat half a dozen of Crumbl cookies and NOT spike their blood sugar to the point of hospitalization.
My mouth dropped reading this…
@@frenchpotato2852 Its crazy.. I think each crumbl cookie is like 800+ calories per cookie. I think ive seen one of their cookies at 1200 calories one time too?? To put that in perspective to a place like krispy kreme, 1 glazed donut from krispy kreme is 190 cals, 1 cinnamon roll from krispy kreme is 280 cals, and 1 filled donut is 290-350. If you ate all that I listed from krispy kreme (1 glazed donut, 1 cinnamon roll, and the highest calorie filled donut), that'd be the same amount of calories as ONE crumbl cookie cookie, some of their cookies being even higher in calories than that..

I used to work at a crumbl, and might be one of the few in this comment section who genuinely enjoyed the job. Part of this was the superb management team and the great owner, and the fact that I lived in a state with a very high minimum wage. They were super relaxed and appreciated work, and rewarded it too. Plus I was allowed to take home as many as I wanted.
that might be luck with getting a good chain place to work at.

@@randomprotag9329 Yeah. It just so happened that my boss had connections with the corporate office and was a great person, but also that she had experience in both the Crumbl stores as well. The store 20 minutes from me was nowhere near as good.

Good labour laws but also good management and coworkers. If the people you work with are trash the job will be trash.
It is insane how big of a difference good management and a higher wage make. Glad you weren’t traumatized by your experience!
From a chef’s perspective, they are damn near always underbaked and they frost them when they are still hot. A lovely combo for over-rated cookie dough.
Agreed! I’m glad you think so bc I was worried I may have been alone 😂
Yeah, as a baker I was SUPER excited to try them cause they look amazing! But...wow. Yikes.
Is that why I always dislike the texture when I get them?? People act shocked when I say I’m really not impressed by Crumbl. I’m not even trying to be edgy when I say they are painfully mid. It’s just not a great cookie!!!
I always struggle with accidentally frosting I'm too early😅
why would you not eat a cookie when it's hot
There's so many cookies both online and offline. The best ones are usually found offline. Sometimes we get overwhelmed by the things we see online rather than the things we see offline.

Crumbl was made by two guys that never were bakers. They just put together cookies ingredients until something cookie like came out

Crumbl cookies are exactly like those sugar cookies from the grocery store you either hate them or you'll love them. Also add-on, when I went to crumble after a few bites of their cookie I felt like i was going to be sick. Watching people eat 4 to 6 cookies at a time makes me wince.
It activates my gag reflex

I used to work at crumbl. It was my first job. I was a baker, which meant I did literally everything. I mixed cookies, weighed and shaped them, baked them, frosted them, ran the register, etc. I got paid 8.00 and hour and our manager took our tips. The customers were extremely entitled and the cookies are ridiculously bad for you. One of my coworkers got into a car accident and my boss got him an Uber because she didn't wanna come and cover the shift. We reported this behavior and nothing was done.
Adding onto it, i hate crumbl so much. I hate them. They're terrible and corporate.
Oh and, if your cookies look bad, it's because we were rushed and not given enough time to actually make them. Andcwe ship them through Uber so if something if smashed or wrong, it could also be that.
Crumbl is also my first job and have been working there for basically 9 months now 😭 and I can definitely relate to not being paid enough for the sheer amount of work we have to do as bakers 🫠
$8 an hour for doing everything??
@@oofoofers yep
the first time i heard that they come up with new flavors *every* week, i immediately knew that they must be super overrated. a business that comes up with a new product every single week doesn’t care about quality. you hit the nail on the head with the FOMO thing.
If you watch the menu from week to week there's a bunch of mixing and matching and re-combining. It's not as many new things as most people think at first glance. There's always some sort of chocolate chip. Pretty much all the cinnamon ones use the same snickerdoodle base. All the sugar cookies have the same base, just different toppings. Things like that. The mega chocolatey cookie might have caramel swirls in it one week, chocolate chunks another week, or get the brookie (brownie/cookie swirl) treatment.
They don’t come up w a new flavor every week.
And, it’s not hard to have core flavors that you rotate around. Like Baskin Robbin’s. Generally we call them seasonal flavors. Or summer/fall/winter/spring menus.
i gotta be honest i saw the thumbnail and was like "why is 6 cookies in 1 week bad? that's like nothing?" and then i watched and. lordy. i think if i consumed that much sugar in one sitting i would shit myself to death. and thats coming from someone who LIKES sweets. those cookies are HUGE.
Yeah... I've gotten Crumbl stuff a few times. Their stuff isn't just big, it's DENSE (likely because of the under-cooking). I swear they weigh almost a pound per cookie. I tend to go for 1/4 of a cookie at a time, or half of one if I'm really treating myself.
There's a cupcake shop in Chillicothe that did specialized cupcakes don't know if it's still running around or not but I can only eat like a quarter of each flavor before I started feeling like I was diabetic
Yeah like one cookie a week for these is the reasonable way to
@@HumbleWooperyea Crumbl is DENSE. I bought one once to try it and it was heavy. It was the most normal cookie too, just a chocolate chip T-T. A friend of mine who loves sweets got a frosted one and she said it was like it stung as she ate it
the cookies are like 800-1000 calories each.
14:23 this is so true though. I quit drinking soda over three years ago- and I still crave it almost daily
Maybe my kidney stones have a good thing to them after all. I feel genuine fear every time I sip soda.

Crumbl was founded in my hometown which I used to think was super cool. Then one of my friends worked in the warehouse and their working conditions and managers were horrible (I'm looking at you, Ben from Crumbl).

@@Ann-sh6js Which almost kind of nearly makes sense since a quarter of a cookie is the official serving size

According to an Ex-Mormon TH-camr I follow who used to work there, sometimes Crumbl uses Betty Crocker mix. Like why claim your cookies are made from scratch when you use it from a box? He does talk about it in one of he and his wife's videos. And in case anyone was wondering... Yes. Crumbl is a Mormon company. Hence why they tend to hire younger people.

I worked at Crumbl and everything the tiktoker said was true about the working conditions but also…the quality of the cookies sucks because
1) they intentionally underbake them. My manager used to tell us it didn’t matter if they were underbaked because they would sit in the warmer for hours which would “keep baking them”
2) They hire staff with no experience and just throw them into baking and icing cookies, so the presentation looks terrible because people don’t know what they’re doing
3) They have 3 people doing the job of 8 at any given time, and they don’t give you breaks so all of the employees are running around tired, hungry, sore, stressed, etc. So your cookies turn out like shit because the entire process is being rushed and half-assed lol.
I lasted in the job for a month and I physically couldn’t take it anymore 😅 I’m 30. I think the people who manage to stay there longer are teenagers because they don’t know that a job shouldn’t be like that. But yeah, don’t waste the money and calories on Crumbl.

I actually used to work at a Crumbl. Hated every second of it. The TIKTOK at 10:30 sums it up pretty well. There was no break area, just the back area, and a small shelf thing with bags of chips and fruit snacks. At the location I was working at, the manager would constantly belittle me and my friend who were working there during our senior year of high school, I was constantly yelled at for not being able to ball a sticky af dough fast enough (hated the texture of how it felt and had to change gloves constantly) and taking a break to eat some chicken nuggets I got from the Target next door (I wound up only being able to eat half of the container and had to throw the rest away). OH, and I was always on closing shifts which technically ended at 10;30 but then the same manager told me, to my face, that being on the closing shift meant I had to stay until all the work was done. I didn't have my license at the time, so I was relying on my parents, I was not going to make them wait until possibly 2 am (fresh out of high school btw) because then I wouldn't have a way home.

I'm sharing a recipe for a tray of oat-choco chip cookies which you'll bake yourself so they aren't raw. You'll get a lot of them because you know small cookies cook better, so you won't be eating raw dough.
Bonus points: because you now have a lot of cookies, you can share instead of film yourself eating them like a gremlin:
Mix all the ingredients in the following order with dough hooks:
1 egg
½ cup room temperature butter or margarine
¾ cup packed brown sugar
The contents of 1 vanilla pod
1 pinch of cinnamon
1 ½ cup cooking oats
¾ cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 pinch salt
1 cup (or more) pure chocolate chips
Ready a baking tray with baking paper. Keep the tray out of the oven while you pre-heat it.
Pre-heat your oven on 220 C° or 430 F°
Time to get your hands dirty!
Use one sheet of baking paper to split all the dough in even two's, until you end up with portions out of which you could roll a ball of about 4-5 cm, or something not bigger than 2 inch.
When you have even portions, start rolling balls and line them up on the baking tray.
When you have all the little dough balls on your baking tray and you are satisfied with the size, use the palm of your hand to squish them into a coin shape.
Bake 15-20 minutes.
Enjoy!
Might try this recipe tomorrow!

People's blind obedience to social media trends is actually horrifying
that's a pretty good term for it honestly, "blind obedience" and its pretty easy to fall prey to
Like Ed said: it's being influenced by something. It can be done to you even by family or friends. If you're surrounded by family members or friends in your life who are constantly doing, eating or even wearing a certain thing a lot of people will try it themself out of curiosity. Social media is like that on a mass scale. Something can suddenly gain massive exposure and other people get curious of what it is and also want to try it. Soon enough it becomes a trend. Even before social media this kind of behaviour can be seen happening throughout history especially with things like fashion. You can see it even in ways like if you're surrounded by people who talk a certain way you may be influenced by their way of talking. It's the nature of human beings. But more people need to know how to think for themself and see what's uneccessary

Most towns have a small business like hers, making amazing treats that are better than the trendy chain mistreating their workers, this is a sign to look around your town if you haven't found a fav small bakery yet :)
On a similar note, whenever I'm on a road trip (since 2021) I try to avoid any chain restaurants, coffee shops, etc. in favor of small businesses. This way I've found many hidden gems that have a more welcoming atmosphere and unique setting - not just a bland, minimalist layout that focus on efficiency - and the food/drinks are often better too. Support locally owned businesses!
Wow that really puts some light on the power of marketing.
That's why I prefer to support small businesses, they probably do not have the contacts and money to shove your social media with ads and influencers or just want to keep it local to maintain quality.
My crumble cookie store got caught buying cookie batter from the store next door 😂
HELP?!?
LOL!!
That is a lie
Lmao
I believe it is official that crumbl uses Betty Crocker
I had a friend who worked in their corporate offices and she told me everyone with an executive or high position slept their way to get there (women AND the men). Told me everything I needed to know about Crumbl.
I like a slightly underdone, chewy cookie but they look raw. Being able to just pick away chunks of what is basically still dough is wild.
I’m surprised that they don’t also come with a spoon to eat the cookies with
I've never gotten a raw cookie from crumbl. I guess it just depends on the location but I suspect a lot of people just think that "underbaked" means raw, which it doesn't. Personally underbaked is how a cookie should be because I don't want hockey pucks as cookies lol
@@luna-mo3olcrumbl does not care about you
@@richbaboon9345 What's that got to do with my comment?

It’s like they assume no one has heard of a food stylist. For those promotional photo shoots Crumbl employs a TEAM of individuals to very selectively create and edit individual cookies. They will literally spend HOURS on shooting those things, and employ tactics that render the product inedible. Gloss, varnish, paint, glycerin, fixative sprays, food coloring-hell, maybe even stuff like petroleum jelly and hairspray. The product you see in ads is NEVER comparable to what an actual store is going to produce. But what do you expect with a trash company making a profit off a cheap and unhealthy item like a crappy cookie? And people wonder why we’re all fat, sick and broke.
I love these videos, it’s like peering into an alternate universe. TikTok is such an unreal place.
Fr! And it's always changing too! I was gone from the app for 3 DAYS and there are new trends and new viral influencers. Jesus.
Exactly 😂 and as someone not from the US, it's a double alternate universe for me 😂
I don’t have TikTok, because I m scared of these people. Where the hell do they come from? Are they even human?
i'm so happy i don't submit to social conformity lmfao this is ridiculous
Social media is collective insanity
Not him saying "having a fully baked cookie so we don't get sick is something we can all agree on" and me awkwardly remembering all the times I have slammed a whole pack of raw cookie dough on my own in a sitting stoppp 😭
Well sometimes the package says it's okay to eat raw at least 😭
Well, that's different, because then you're expecting it
Sometimes that kinda raw or gooey in the middle slaps… or just straight raw 🥰
Make vegan ones so you can eat it raw without risk 😋
That's alright for private people to do on their own, not professional for a company though.
I’ve been working at crumbl for over a year and a half and I swear to god, the customers have never been more rude than they are now. THEYVE BECOME TOO ENTITLED TO THEIR COOKIES 🙌
Lol, I remember getting those types all the time when I worked there. Most of the time I was the one to deal with them because I could talk them into some type of sense🤷
those customers have TRASH TASTE
Then isn’t your job to satisfy their “entitled tastes”? YOUR part of the issue with low demand of GOOD cookies.
I used to work at Crumbl and they attract the worst customers. This one woman yelled at a sixteen year old girl for the kitchen being out of a flavor until she cried. I ended up leaving for different reasons, but crumbl customers are some of the worse customers I’ve dealt with and I’ve worked at a sports stadium.
@@margaretbushwhat?
FINALLY SOMEONE TALKED ABOUT IT 👏🏼👏🏼 I see these “Crumbl taste test” videos all the time and I’m thinking to myself “is that normal?”
That little Mexican who be crying 😂😂😂😂😂 love it
13:00 One cookie has the same amount of calories of a big mac, that's beyond messed up!
A Big Mac is a better option cuz that sauce still slaps. It’s like crack.
@@deadinside8781At least it doesn't spike on anything and actually satisfies hunger
It does??? Blood pressure?? Sodium. @@lunarspine
I used to work at Mrs Fields and it's because most places add shortening
nah thats business
The "be an iPad kid for 3-7 hours" is so real
Fun Fact: when you're in manufacturing, it takes time to make something look nice and good. When your boss/client screams you gotta be faster, you take shortcuts and then you end up with a mess...
I wonder why they're that pricey
It’s the same with baking at a store….. I’m a baker and we take our take with our creations… cookies? We bake them at around 11 minutes
@@keyadraws There's a lot that goes into manufacturing that we don't ever think about and the cost of it all adds up at the end of the day. In the company I work at, labor is a big expense. The longer it takes to make the product, the more expensive it becomes because the person making it is being paid per hour. The person designing the product, the person handling the costings, the technical person, even the driver all plays a role in the final product. In a bakery, your ovens uses a lot of electricity, so your product will become more expensive depending on the electricity price. Now you're in a recession and the prices of eggs and flour goes up, this means you're products price also increases to compensate for the extra price you're paying. You still need to make enough money to pay your workers, pay the rent, pay the electricity, etc. Then on top of that you need to make a profit too.
Literally watching this while working out, makes me feel less weak and keeps me going on
As someone from the Cookie Chain Capitol Of The US (Utah) literally EVERY time we’d get cookies, we’d cut them into QUARTERS and share them. People eating a whole cookie or two in one sitting, let alone SIX, is psychotic
Cookie and soda shops are our bread and butter. But yeah, you're supposed to cut them into pieces. Not devour the whole thing like a glutton.
And everywhere else they are a normal size so we are used to eat 1
I thought these were sharing cookie myself and if anything I eat half at lunch save other half for dessert with dinner
Yeah ngl, it’s the people who have sugar addictions. I’m glad we’re finally talking about this, crumbl is a danger to those with no self control, it’s why I don’t eat there anymore.
literally, i go with my family and we all split the cookies and even then we leave enough to have more the next day
Currently my last week working at Crumbl. I’ve never been more happy to leave a job in my life. But the tiktok at 10:30 is so accurate
I hope your next job goes well! And I'm glad you're getting out of there, leaving jobs is stressful but always a good step
@@halmoser thank you. You don’t know how much that means to me. Got an interview in a couple days, hopefully it goes well
I hope your next endeavor goes well and I'm so sorry you had to work at a place that sounds like a complete hell hole
I work at crumbl and idk what blud is talking about
@@gabrielmableProve it, how much time does it take to bake the cold cookies usually.
Crumbl seems to underbakes their cookies. While it's valid to pull cookies slightly underbaked for optimal texture, Crumbl has been known to take them out too early. For example, if a cookie has a bake time of 10-13 minutes, most would pull them at 9½ minutes to finish baking with residual heat. Crumbl, in this example, pulls them around 8 minutes.
This, and the fact that they sometimes, vaguely, justify the use of their warmers as if to say "they finish baking there!" Which. Warmers ≠ ovens. The cookies can be done correctly,but Crumbl has little consistency throughout their franchises and you end up with raw cookies more often than not.
I've refused to eat anything from Crumbl since I found out. I'd trust a more established bakery, or myself, to get a safe "gooey" cookie. Probably cheaper too.
my mom buys a box of crumbl cookies like once every three months and we usually split them all by 4 ways (there’s three of us) and usually don’t finish them until 4 or 5 days
This is another good reason to support your local bakeries/bakers. Ive never bad crumbl, but it sounds awful all around
I had it once after a cheer competition cause the rest of my teammates wanted to go, and that was the first time I had even heard about the place. I ended up just getting a single sugar cookie cause I didn’t want to jump into so much and the sizes kinda scared me, and all I remember was that I couldn’t even finish it because it was so ungodly sweet, like the kind of sweet where your mouth tingles and feels kind of sour if you know what I mean. I don’t think I even finished half of it 😅
My sister-in-law got a box of these as a gift when I was staying with them, and it took 3 adults and 3 preschool-age children more than 3 days to eat them! They're so rich and sugary!
Admittedly, the kids would have tried to eat at least a whole cookie by themselves but they have smart parents who sliced the cookies like pie, because kids with belly problems aren't fun for anyone!
They are. Back when I had the fattest sweet tooth and would eat a variety of snacks all in one sitting, I had crumbl sometimes but could BARELY finish even half of the cookie.
I only ever got crumbl cookies from my moms friend as a gift cause she heard I was having a hard time, and when I tell you the flavors weren’t flavors. The flavor profiles were absolutely devoured by sugar. Like they were literally more sugary than whipped cream.
Hope you are doing better :) from the first thing ánd the cookies.
What whipped cream have you been eating? I find most to be lighter in sugar.
@@cyberwitch7161 It’s more that the only flavor profile in whipped cream, at least the type bought for my household, is only sugar and cream. So when I say “more sugary than whipped cream” I mean that somehow the flavor profiles are so masked by sugar that I can’t even taste the secondary flavor like the cream in whipped cream. And tbh whipped cream is quite sugary for my tastes, even when homemade. I prefer a light sweetness that isn’t one of the only main flavor profiles.
I am a proud member of citizens that has never tried a crumbl cookie strictly off hearing the rumor they use a full stick of butter in each cookie
Ngl due to recent ALR events I thought “crumbl” was from a typo she made….not a brand. I’d like to go back to being unaware of this being an actual company making these godawful monster cookies. Crawling back under my happy little rock now 😅
Ok
Girlllllll 😂
I am so glad I’m not the only one who found this unintentional crossover… 😅 And bonus crossover(ish) content, that is the first I’ve ever heard “big back” outside of FB saying it 🙃
BAHAHA I thought I was the only gorl down here lol
@@gonfreecss8753 Nah gorlworld is everywhere
I worked at crumbl cookies as my first job in high school and it was hell. with the doughy-ness, it could be the location/cookie type. it’s been a couple of years, but I know with the sugar cookie based cookies, they were cooked for 14 minutes, and the other were cooked at 16 minutes. with presentation, again, location :/ you’re being rushed to produce so many cookies, especially when it’s busy, so they won’t all be perfect. everything is done by weight, so some cookies appear smaller, but in reality, they all weigh the same. Some just don’t spread out as much when baking :/
So there are no overnight bakes to help prevent this undercooking????
I have the recipe for the crumbl sugar cookies and I make them pretty often. The reason it’s mushy in the middle is because they take them out too soon then let them solidify to have a “doughy” middle. When I make them I cook them longer so my cookies aren’t straight up raw
This is the first video I watch of you but your hair is GORGEOUS ✨️✨️✨️
People either need to learn how to bake (sugar cookies aren’t that hard to make) or they just need to find a local bakery that makes good cookies.
30$ for 6 cookies is a crime
Cookies are so easy to make. I usually make my own with flax seed “eggs” or applesauce instead of eggs. It’s cheaper, healthier, more ethical and they taste better. And you can actually eat the dough without getting sick. Also I use plant based butter. Tastes the same as butter from cows milk but is healthier, less fattening.
@Letthembelightpeaceonelove As an FYI t's not just the egg that makes the dough not good to eat so eat dough with caution.
Cookies are insanely easy to make, you can literally make great tasting and texture cookies in a microwave. Absolutely no excuse to spend 30 bucks
For real or if you're lazy like me lol you can also use those ready to bake betty crocker cookie packs where all you have to do is just add water or egg
@TerraBranford873 what else would make you sick? I've never felt ill from eating vegan cookie dough before where as I felt ill several times from non vegan cookie dough
Thank you for doing this video. As someone who has been overweight since grade school, Crumbl Cookie was my lowest low point that made my finally decide to change my habits at 32. I remember sitting in my car outside one of their locations thinking, "I don't even want a cookie. I know its bad for me and I'll hide the evidence so I don't feel ashamed later. It will make me feel terrible. I don't want this. Why am I still going to go inside?" At that point it became very clear that it was addiction behavior and I had to get control. I've lost almost 30 pounds since then!
For anyone else struggling with the same thing, exercise is NOT actually that great of a weight loss tool, controlling your diet is how you lose weight. The whole "you can walk for 30 minutes to burn off a soda!" thing is perpetuated by fast food companies who want you to think having excessive terrible foods is something you can "counter" with exercise, but your body will adjust within a few weeks and your weight loss will plateau. The strategy that has worked amazingly for me when nothing else has is intermittent fasting / 'One Meal a Day' eating. Look into it but also be sure to still get your daily nutrition needs!
good luck to you!
For real, diets help way more than exercise in terms of losing weight imo. They don't even have to be strict, you can just not eat when you're not hungry and you'll still lose weight
Bro don't be spreading blatant misinformation, you need diet and exercise to live a healthy lifestyle.
@@karenwang313 That's not what they were talking about though? They just said that diet has a bigger influence on weight loss than exercise. Of course ideally you would include both in your lifestyle, but that's not what was discussed here.
I think the problem is that you're framing this as losing weight = being healthier, which is just blatantly untrue and there are dozens and dozens of research studies that prove it. Losing weight is not always a bad thing to want, but the goal of a HEALTHY diet and exercise is to BE HEALTHY- not conform to a body standard and hit a goal on a scale.
I am somebody that has been fat their whole life and also pretty physically and mentally unwell. A few years ago I went really hard on diet and exercise and, while it did help bring my a1c levels out of the pre-diabetic range, to be honest? I lost 50 pounds and didn't feel better in any way. There was no improvement to my health aside from that one number, all of the problems I was having were still happening just as much. I still practice a lot of that stuff, but I've gained back weight now, and that's because it was not the weight that was making me unhealthy. Obviously there are cases where being fat can affect health, like with the increased likelihood of having sleep apnea, but being fat is not inherently unhealthy.
I doubt you meant for your comment to be harmful, but this type of thinking can do a lot more harm than good. Losing weight is one of the hardest thing a person can do- again, though diet fads and health influencers will tell you otherwise, studies and research have proved that humans are not built to lose weight and doing so can be difficult at best and dangerous at worst. Videos like this obviously call into concern how much sugar and unhealthy stuff we eat on a daily basis, but the creator didn't bring weight into it and neither should you. The concern is HEALTH, not losing weight.
4:17 literally cookie run kingdom
Even down to the powercreep/dubious marketing practices
Oh yeah i forgot about thag

I got a free crumbl cookie on my birthday (fun fact, its free on your bday) and it took me three days to eat because it was so sweet! At least it was free!
I go to a college with overfunded dorm hall clubs so I often get free food, including cookies from both Crumbl and their main competitor, Insomnia. Insomnia CLEARS, but their model is mostly opening near college campuses and having clubs buy their cookies in bulk. They don't market online nearly as hard as crumbl from what I can tell, but they do numbers at colleges due to their strategy. They actually feel and taste like high-end cookies as well. idk how they do it but they're so much better than crumbl.
as someone who grew up in a poor/food impoverished house and am now living on a somewhat normal budget but still living paycheck to paycheck, I will never understand overconsumption and following an influencer. The ONLY time I’ve ever wanted to do what an influencer does is that ice girl bc I LOVE ice and fruit and drinks. And the sugar consumption from crumbl + the price? Oh my god ew you couldn’t pay me to get that 🤢
I was a professional baker for *years* and this stupid underbaked thing has been my personal Tartarus since my first Subway cookie.
They’ve already got their cookie dough coming in frozen! Just chuck it in a preheated oven until it’s actually cooked and the center will still be soft and chewy! And if they want to make it even more fool proof, use a different flour instead of all purpose and/or substitute in 1-2 tbsp of corn starch.
Underbaked is just sad.
😂😂😂 “my personal Tartarus” now that was funny
THEY EFFING WHAT
As a baker for years too I'll actually say the opposite. Underbaked is how cookies should be!! Who wants hockey pucks for cookies? Soft and gooey is amazing. Must also say, they ARE cooked all the way through (the ones I've had are), just to the minimal so that they stay soft.
I worked at a subway back in 2017 and my manager told me that they were safe to eat “raw”. Everything is pretreated but it’s put in the oven to form that cookie shape and kind of firm them up a little. Perfectly safe to eat but the texture isn’t for everyone.
Love “personal Tartarus” description lol
Panera Bread’s cookies are really good. Not as big as Crumbl cookies but they’re thoroughly baked.
OMG yes the kitchen sink cookie IS TO DIE FOR PLEASEEE… it lasts me a few days I love Them 😭😭😭
Was literally about to say this. I got one for free yesterday from the Panera workers as an apology for taking longer on my order. The cookie was a tiny bit smaller than crumble but it tasted so much better. It was better made all around with a bit of salt as well to balance out the sweetness of the cookie
@@jacobdecker2564crumbls is way better than paneras for me 😭😭
Panera’s cookies are way better the chocolate chip and kitchen sink are the perfect balance of crunchy and chewy and right amount of sweetness. They’re also cost less and good quality.
@@keishaj4143 Took the words right outta my mouth 😩🙌✨
I'll say this once and I'll say it again BAKE YOUR OWN COOKIES, go to the store, get the ingredients and LEARN HOW TO MAKE THEM YOURSELVES. They taste way better, and you can have that same variety while getting better at baking and decorating cookies.
I get the appeal of Crumbl (since changing flavors weekly is a fun idea) but their cookies are always soooo underbaked 😔It also feels super unwelcoming inside with the industrialized white lighting
Underbaked stuff is good tho, never gotten sick from it. Not the same as something being raw.
@@amphithere there's "good undercooked" where it's slightly soft, and then there's that one the girl had in her car that fell apart like wet sand
@@amphithereYeah and that’s because Crumbl’s cookies are raw than wisely undercooked
I don't even remember what cookie I got the only time I went to crumble but I do remember their super bright white lighting lol
I LOVE cookies so much that I recently learned how to bake them myself! It was so exciting and fulfilling to mix ingredients together, pop them in the oven, and pull out a delicious batch of treats. But ever since I started making my own cookies, I've stopped buying from commercial stores. I feel better about it though because I know what goes into the cookies I'm eating now, I can control the sweetness and butter content, and I can portion them better. I've never tried Crumbl cookies (am not from the West) but those look bonkers. They're so big and look so sugary. They scare me a little bit...and like I said, I LOVE cookies 😂
I've always wanted to learn how to bake cookies. Any tips?
@@Charlielemon-j9jTH-cam , literally
@Charlielemon-j9j Pick some classic recipes and follow them closely. Also when baking, cook your first batch a bit less time than recommend to see how they turn out. You can always put them back in, but you can't unburn it and every oven/climate cooks a bit different. You will also mess some up but it's fine, that's part of learning. Have fun!

@@Charlielemon-j9j start with classic, OG chocolate chip cookies. I recommend Sally's Baking Addiction or Preppy Kitchen's recipes, they are my go-tos!

If you are following the recipe correctly, it should be okay even if you feel like it's not!
As someone who used to eat a gang of cookies when I was younger, sugar can be incredibly addicting. I don’t eat like that anymore and balance the amount of sugary drinks and foods I eat daily.
Now I’m looking at things like crumbl cookies (and even Dunkin) as foods that can cause death by too much sugar intake.
The fact that they’re eating over 600 grams of sugar for a trend is concerning as heck… Insulin shock is not a joke, I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy..

I like watching these videos because I'm not really online anymore. It's great kind of keeping up to date on things I find interesting.
I used to work at crumbl cookie. You only got a 15 minute break if you worked a 10 hour shift. The Gm would regularly cut hours from full time (38 hours max cause they wouldn’t let u hit 40) to 2 days a week yet complain that they couldn’t keep any workers. Also the pay is HORRIBLE. $8 an hour plus tips, and no benefits.
dam
Whenever my boss wants to treat us to something fun in the middle of the week it's always Crumbl cookies and we're all just splitting them into quarters in the break room like nah dude you aren't about to fatten us up and give us the diabetes so you can replace us with newbies at the base pay rate. Gtfoh😂

That makes me not miss working in the office even more. At my office it was always donuts.
😭istg, i wanna slap your boss LIKE JUST GIVE THEM WHATEVER THEY LIKE?? or idk, coffee? idkk
I honestly can’t understand either on why/how people can consume so much sugar in one sitting. I personally feel kind of sick when I eat anything more than a palm-sized chocolate chip cookie.
I have a tolerance of about 1200 kcal, after that I feel sick just 3 years ago i could consume 2500 without problem
happy for you. anywayyyyy what’s y’all’s fav crumbl flavour 😭
i think they're conditioned for it. i was at lunch the other day and a mom and her little girl came in. they sat beside us and i saw what they'd ordered. mom got a full sandwich and chips and a large soda and the little girl - no more than 4 - had a large soda too (she couldn't even lift it was so big for her) and a bag of chips and that was her lunch. when you eat like that since childhood, you just get used to feeling that way i guess. it's sad.
I tried a basic vanilla cake batter a few weeks ago, I got so sick from all the sugar after just eating a 1/4 of it. I eat a healthy balanced diet just about everyday with some cheat treats once in a blue moon but this was a whole different level of sick.
Especially when it's also wheat heavy sugar, I just ate two mini muffins and feel sick. But could easily eat a block of chocolate over an hour or so
I honestly feel like I’m the only person who goes to Crumbl cookie just because I enjoy them and not for social media.
Like some other people here, I used to work for crumbl a few years back .
Personally it wasn’t a horrible job , they did definitely work us a bit hard, we had to work fast .
But honestly I found it pretty enjoyable, I also did have a 2nd job as well and still felt like I was able to do it!
My shift leads were nice people for the most part and made sure we took brakes, sometimes would even get us food, if not they would allow us to go and get food from nearby !
Sadly, management got worse because they let go/ fired the people actually making it a nice work experience! Was very sad.
My manager seemed to be upset with me for not being able to come in for ONE shift. And did a quiet firing . Anyways that was my experience, I am sad to hear a lot of others having such a bad experience!
You should definitely do some more "Herd Instinct" related commentary videos.
3:45 That's a Nanaimo bar! They are a Canadian desert with their first known recorded recipe being in 1952. They are good but very sweet
And it's worth trying at least once.
Canada has a thing where we put cookie dough-like substances into a pan and bake it, instead of bothering to make it into individual cookies. Easier to ice that way, too. I'm surprised America hasn't caught on yet.
11:05 I worked at a Tropical Smoothie cafe and this is exactly how it was. Idk if I’ve been conditioned into hard working hours or what, but it wasn’t that bad…? We weren’t even working the entire shift because you’re not getting customers every waking moment you’re clocked in- unless it’s different for Crumbl idk
Yessss im glad someone is talking about this, cause i will see people buying these cookies and it always pisses me off with how much is being over consumed, especially with that little four way cookie cutter that they always buy, its a waste of plastic that they’re never going to use again

I wrote a college essay on overconsumption in the media , we definitely used the same sources
Fun fact, crumbl says they cook their cookie medium rare
They range anywhere from 600,700 to 1200 calories!! That’s a fucking meal… as a Health conscious PCOS girl you would have to pay me a good amount of money to eat one of these and I am not even lying
100%
I only eat 2000 a day that’s an insane amount of calories😭
Those cookies look gross, but I also feel that way about the donuts topped with frosting and candy and the weird cupcake craze that swept through in the mid 2010s. I guess this is just the latest iteration? I honestly do not understand why you put sugary stuff on top of an already sweet base. My only exception to that rule is ice cream... I do enjoy some chunky goodness in ice cream. :D
With ice cream it’s more of a texture thing. What they do these cookies and donuts is just too much. Just a little bit of frosting and a sprinkle of sprinkles is enough…. Not an entire candy bar on top of 10 pounds of frosting that’s gross.
They’re for people who have sugar addictions. That’s why I had to stop buying them. Fast track to diabetes.
There’s only one company I ever found that made good donuts but sadly they are going out of business
@Sunshineattacks3 It tastes and feels worse then just eating a whole candy bar on something honestly. I think it's because the icing is literally mostly sugar instead of dairy or something like ice cream. Over loaded cookies like these or cupcakes are a mystery to me
I go to a cookie place and I can't find a chocolate chip cookie or a snickerdoodle. I go to a donut place and I can't find a normal cinnamon sugar ring. Its all covered in frosting, its all covered in cream, its all layered with 20 layers of random crazy stuff stuff. Just give me a normal one god. Am I the only one who thinks like this?
Chain stores are so exploitative, and it's a trap that is easy for young people to fall for because they have no other experiences to compare the working conditions to. I wasted so much time in customer service, when better paying jobs are easier.
Anyone else watching this after the crumbled Sydney incident
