Kirkland: European Cookies

(Yes, this is another stocked up review.)
Mom gave aunt C a salmon for birthday and she gave us back this huge can of cookies. Actually, with almost everything covered in chocolate, I'm not sure if this is more like candy than cookies.

Some of them has that white powdery separation of fat on the surface. I wonder how old this is. Unfortunately the outer wrapping with the expiry date has been discarded. The other hint is the current form of this product at Costco uses a brown can and in a different (slanted leaf) shape. Oh well...

Half of them taste like wax. The chocolate-covered wafers are definitely stale. The other half is OK. All of them are too sweet. Looks like those with more cookie than chocolate taste the best.

Updated 2010 Mar 6th.

Got the same thing from sis-in-law for Chinese new year. Oh yes, this can has a better (more current) shape. And the cookies, much, much, much better than the one from aunt C. However, they're still a bit too sweet for my liking. And, very fattening. Not addictive but still dangerous as it's so easy to pop one in your mouth when you're near the can.
