Why do some cookies disappear?
THE old missing cookies did not leave without reason. Several factors explain their disappearance:

- 🏭 Brand strategies: Sometimes a brand simply decides to remove a product to launch a new one.
But despite this, these cookies remain engraved in our memories and still arouse so much nostalgia.
