Actually, no it didn't. 😉 But since your post lacked a point of reference by quoting another post - which I assume you were alluding to the 'full plate of cookies left (discarded) in the hallway' - I went ahead and took the opportunity. Thank you for leaving the door open. 😎

I can honestly that say I've never had a thing for wicker, despite growing up in the south and having a 🥰 mom that loved everything wicker!

@skier05 here's the recent thread too

That's actually pretty cool! I don't suppose you get to keep the basket lol?

... and this picture recently posted by @OrcaGirl on a Live thread from Norwegian Epic

This was posted by @dhanakorn couple of weeks ago in another thread...

THANK YOU!!! for taking the time to post the Freestyle Daily and menus. Having never been on NCL this gives me sort of peek into what goes on during longer cruises. I'm now inclined to eat in the MDR every night and maybe only book additional specialty dining over the 2 free FAS once I get onboard.

Great explanation and link! THANK YOU! 👍 😁

Thanks. I looked at the entire page that lists the description and there are no terms and conditions, no asterisk, and no fine print. Other than calling the customer service number, and in all likelihood getting someone who has no clue, there are no other details.

If you're asking why a picture, to show waste as an issue. If we can post sightings and verifications of 'Cookies Found!' why not counter with examples showing full plates wasted, the reason not withstanding. All of the reports are saying corporate is using that as a main reason.

Now that too would have made an interesting picture. 😢 Curious, and I'm asking because I don't know these things on NCL, do they do this 'Afternoon Snack' offering in every casino? Or maybe just on the smaller Jewel-class, etc.? Is it listed in the daily program?

So, this showed up on my cruise booking options recently. Never much for endlessly dropping money into a slot machine, I'll sometimes set a $20 limit per cruise just for the fun of it. However, this has me intrigued. Anyone that's participated in this, can you give additional details on how this works on a cruise. For a 25-night - and on any NCL cruise for that matter - I'm assuming it's done just once?

For a cruise line that has been notorious for nickel-and-diming people into oblivion, the reported cut-back/removing of 'something as insignificant as cookies' just continues the conspiracy theories of cutbacks and reductions. Take this, take that, a little bit at a time, they'll suck it up. There's never a day that goes by without someone complaining about NCL's food and services. But if it's done over time, people just stop complaining and get used to the hammering. What's going to disappear next? Your guess is as good as mine.

I don't know, I'm gonna need photographic proof. 😉🤣

Again, 19 ships. And 12 pages later from Post 1 we have more reports from ship's officers of it being a 'corporate decision' than we have reports of Cookie Sightings!!! in the casino by some random passerby. And we have ZERO reports from 19 ships saying trays of cookies are still showing up daily in The Great Outdoors in pre-covid numbers. You said: "People having been saying that cookies are no longer available on NCL, per crew and even Officers. On the other hand, others are posting current photographic evidence that cookies ARE available in the Solo Lounge, Haven, Great Outdoors, et al. Both can't be true simultaneously", But it can. Remember...19 ships. We can have it being reported as not available and seeing photographic evidence of the opposite - simultaneously - because there are 19 ships: ships of all different sizes, ships of vastly different passenger capacities, and ships with widely different venues and/or accommodation types where cookies are still available in some yet not showing up in others. On 19 ships. 😎
