Such an egregious knock-off that they got sued by Crumbl Crave Cookies comes from owner Trent English, phrases such as “Because adulting is hard” and “Game changer” strewn all over a fancy website of options that change weekly now expanding across the nation though franchising.

Sold on a back-story of the founders’ eating disorder, though one needs to dig deep below glossy boxes, stark-white interior and an intentionally familiar logo to discover anything but photogenic Cookies and Soda with added sweeteners, Crave Chocolate Chip tracks similar to Crumbl in taste and size while “Chocolate Cupcake” oddly offers the same “basic flavor you’ve had a hundred times—just masquerading under a new layer of frosting” that Trent supposedly rallies against.

Reportedly “crafted with top-tier ingredients that would make even the snobbiest food critics nod in approval,” Oreo and Milky Way Bars proving…something…it is safe to say Crave’s best efforts include Oatmeal bases like a Carmelita, though “The Parent Trap” is admittedly an indulgent bit of nostalgia.
