Trader Joe's Organic Honey Hedgehog Cookies With Cultured Butter

Day 4 of Cookie Week.

If you want to get a mental preview of what these odd little cookies are like to eat, do this:

• Call up your memory of animal crackers. 
• Think smaller. 
• Morph them into the shape of hedgehogs. 
• Add some nice honey flavor. 
• Add an odd "edge" of cultured butter. 

And there you go! That's what's in this box, divided into six pouches of maybe a dozen or so cookies each.

It was that last step, the cultured butter part, that was the problem for me. I just couldn't help constantly noticing and disliking it, like when there's an out-of-tune key on a piano.


Will I buy it again? 

No. Even without the cultured-butter misstep, I don't think these would have a place in my life.

But they are cute, I'll give them that.
