There are a lot of things to love about Christmas, and cookies sure are one of them. But what cookies do people love (and hate) the most?

  • Well, a new YouGov poll asked over 1,300 adults to chime in on their cookie preferences.
  • 36 different cookies were in the running, with participants shown two at a time and asked to rank which one was better.
  • Not surprisingly, the most popular cookie was the chocolate chip, nabbing 78% of the vote, followed by sugar (64%).
