World's smallest cookie

I was looking for a sugar-free cookie to feed my sweet tooth but not add too many calories. There's this trend, of packaging things in individual serving sizes. That sounded good to me.

So I picked up this box of Murray's sugar-free Shortbread Bites, six pouches to the box. According to the advertising, each pouch is one serving, or 90 calories. Sounded great, afternoon snack all measured out. Price was ridiculously high, but hey, I'm willing to fork it over to save me from myself.

Opened the box. Six, very small, very flat pouches were inside. Box could have held about six more and still closed just fine.

Opened a pouch. Out came the smallest cookie in the world. Seriously, it could go in the Guinness book. The picture on the box was twice the size of the actual cookie.

Now in fairness, I have to say there were twelve of these little things in the pouch. All together they wouldn't make two normal sized cookies.

I couldn't figure out where the 90 calories were hidden. I mean, they're not only small, they're wafer thin, and they have a hole in the middle!

So I emptied the pouch in my hand and ate them all at once. Just thought the world should know the record's been taken.
