I made two batches of cookies using the [free sample Guittard chips](https://www.rootsandgrubs.com/2006/08/08/perk-up/), one with the semisweet chips and one with Super Cookie Chips. (Iris: “Can I have some Super Cookie Chips?”) Both were pretty good; I’m sticking with Ghirardelli as my favorite, but these made perfectly enjoyable cookies.

According to the Guittard sales rep, they are planning to make a bittersweet chip soon.

My next column involves seafood. If you are planning to send me free seafood, please do not deliver a box that will end up sitting under my editor’s desk.
