Are these two different kinds of cookies in this tray, I asked the counterman? No, he told me, some of them were just baked longer than others. That might have warned me away — most of the offerings were similarly indifferent — but I wanted something sweet, and I liked the look of the lighter-colored sugar cookies ($1). I probably would have fared better with a cookie that was less underdone.
