It&#x27;s a great deal!<p>Cheapest &quot;CHiP&quot; cookies (12 months * &#x27;classic&#x27;): $0.88&#x2F;cookie<p>Premade Nestle chocolate chip cookie dough: $0.11&#x2F;cookie<p>Frozen homemade cookie dough, ingredients cost fudged up x2: $0.08&#x2F;cookie<p>But, the true cost of homemade dough is much higher: We&#x27;re well-paid unicorn startup employees, so the value of our time brings up the cost to like $1.44 per cookie.<p>And buying premade cookie dough from Walmart lowers our earning potential inordinately, because it&#x27;s trashy and trashy people don&#x27;t get hired by unicorn startups.<p>Finally, the CHiP Oven won&#x27;t become another useless kitchen appliance that takes up space, because with slight modifications we can also use it for making tortilla espanolas and reflowing PCBs.

A standalone appliance that can only bake 4 cookies at a time. And they claim to be environmentally friendly. I am really failing to understand the use case.
