Seems like just yesterday the news dropped that Mother’s Cookies was closing its Oakland, Calif. factory after a good, 92-year run. Well, it didn’t take long for the hipster nostalgia to start. You can already buy a shirt from Cloth Moth commemorating the fallen giant of childhood treats:
The best part:
FIRST 20 ORDERS receive one complimentary 10 oz. bag of soon-to-be-gone-forever Mother’s Original Circus Animal Cookies (One per customer)
Unless you are, or were recently, a small child, you may not be totally tuned in to the gravity of what’s happened with the Mother’s closure. It’s a big shame, though. Day care will never be the same.
