Remember the jingle "Nobody doesn't like Sara Lee"? That double-negative motto could work just as well for Royal Dansk Danish butter cookies. Jenn Wohletz labeled that tin of cookies one of the worst Xmas foods -- but it definitely has its defenders. Here's just a taste of the responses.

Adds Romerogj:

Agree with these people... butter cookies don't need to be on here. Is this author just a sad, sad person?
