    I was told as a child that the crunch was dead ants. Why any adult would ruin fig newtons for a kid is beyond me.

      a cookie is a cookie but a newton is fruit and cake!

      god these were such treasure as a child! I don’t think my children have even tried them but I sadly expect they might not love them the options are so much broader today.

      And my store is having a sale on them now how lovely if the kids hate them I am sure i will at least get the satisfaction of finding them having been enshittified since I last tried them a decade ago!
