I ordered the three pack of the Lime Coolers after hearing about them on the Paula Deen show. When they arrived, I opened the bag and there were only 6 or so whole cookies, the rest were either in pieces or crumbs. Amazon is great about keeping the customer satisfied and after I complained in an email, a replacement was sent. The second shipment was in a similar state--they were packed tight, so who knows why they were in pieces. They taste good but only order them if you like eating cookie crumbs and pieces.

Sadly - These cookies are not what I remember from living down in Florida. Originally, the cookies were white-coated, whole and zapped your tastebuds which immediately transported one to a mangrove swamp on a sunny day, sipping a lime/planters punch ... What I got was mostly crumbs, brown in colour, slightly stale and one half of the zap-in-the-mouth taste and was immediately transported to Buffalo, NY, for cold chicken wings. We checked all three tins and ended up tossing the lot.

I believe that the Byrd group dumps their old/inferior stock in this manner just to gain a buck ... obviously, at our expense ... thusly ... giving us the byrd?

I would recommend that Amazon re-evaluate their agreement with this company and take them to the woodshed for a 'chat'. I would further recommend avoiding a depressing/costly chance at happiness/nostalgia.

All Byrd cookies are just yummy. My favorite are their scotch oatmeal but if I had to pick a second it would be the key lime coolers. They are small lime flavored cookies with a powdered sugar like coating... they are basically flavored tea cookies and are great with tea or coffee. If you have not experienced these cookies you are really missing a treat. Interesting and original they make great gifts or finger food for a dinner or party.

These are AMAZING! I worked retail and we used to sell these in the store I worked in. I bought several flavors of Byrd cookies throughout the course of time, and these are one of my favorites! Also try Byrd's Cupcake Cookies (Black & White flavor is the best). Being from the South, and only a few hours from Savannah where they're made I love supporting a local company. These are great for gifts and I have given them as Christmas gifts every year! Byrd cookies tend to be expensive, yes, but they are worth it and make great gifts.

I loved these cookies so much I ordered two more flavors, the peach and the lemon. They're excellent with tea in the evening. I know some have complained about broken cookies but mine came just fine. I imagine they weren't packed right. Mine had plenty of bubble wrap to insure they came unbroken. As I said before, I liked them so much I ordered two more flavors.

The key lime coolers were great!! I gave them as a gift and weren't broken as previously reviewed. The taste was wonderful. I would order them again.

Bought these cookies for my husband, who loves key lime anything, and they are a big hit! Tins are very cute, keeping them to recycle with treats to friends.

These were tasty cookies. Tart and just a little sweet. Part of the purchase goes to charity, so I'm sure that cancels the calories!

i bought these for my cousin and his wife for christmas and had them shipped across the country. they said they were good cookies! =)

Great product and a wonderful flavor. The 3 tin pack was a great value. Sandy
