Notes

Schnauz's notes

“Is it possible for a cookie to be TOO delicious? It seems it is. This very cookie is so incredibly tasty that it vanishes almost as soon as it appears. Where it goes...nobody knows. But if you ever want to taste it, you'll have to move fast!”

Olimar's notes

“Sweets don't simply disappear of their own accord. There has to be some sort of scientific explanation! To test my theory, I've laid out the cookies and am waiting... Normally, I'd have given into my urge to eat them, but I must stay strong.”

Louie's notes

“There's something about this flavor that makes it impossible to stop eating. Not that I've tried very hard.”

Naming

Internal name: The Vanishing Cookie's internal name is YOSHICOOKIEC as the treasure's design is based off of a cookie type from the game Yoshi's Cookie.
