According to shoppers, something magical is happening in store aisles and devoted fans can’t seem to get enough. Evidently, Pillsbury’s Limited Edition Lisa Frank Cookie Dough has been offering a one-two punch to tastebuds in the most amazing way. One reviewer claimed she ate two and a half packs of this cookie dough, all because the flavor was so insanely delightful.
So, what’s the secret? Honestly, we’re not sure. The cookie dough seems to have pretty average ingredients, and yet fans are losing their minds over how great these cookies taste. We’re thinking it’s probably the nostalgic flavor combined with the fashionable hot pink unicorn stamped in the middle of cookies that’s getting everyone all shook up. Not to mention the fact that ’90s kids and Lisa Frank go way, way back.
Though it’s popular, this cookie dough contains artificial flavors and artificial dye. To be specific, the Red Dye 40 listed in the ingredients has been cited to potentially cause hyperactivity in children, intensified feelings of depression, and even migraines and allergy symptoms in certain people (via Cleveland Clinic). For this reason, we can’t quite recommend this cookie dough as a top pick. But boy, is it delish.
