First unveiled in January and headlining Subway’s Sidekicks menu of footlong snacks, the Footlong Cookie is packed with gooey chocolate chips, served warm and available for $5.

According to a recent nationwide survey conducted by the company, 70% of respondents said that eating a Footlong Cookie would brighten their day, stacking up just behind the 89% that enjoy cuddling with puppies.

Subway has sold more than five million Footlong Cookies since it joined the menu alongside the Cinnabon Footlong Churro and Auntie Anne’s Footlong Pretzel.
