Looks like Cougar Mountain cookies are gone


Recommended Posts

NOOOOoooooo!

But they've been a mainstay of my pothead friends!!! WHAT WILL THEY DO!?!?!?

Has anyone thought of the Seattle potheads?

Honestly though, I've really liked their cookies, and I hope this is just an attempt at raising more capital to buy bigger equipment (yes, I know I'm not living in reality).

Great news folks. I was concerned about Cougar's welfare so I shot out an email to them, here's their prompt response:

Colonel,

Thanks for your email and your concern about the welfare of our company. While the last 2 years has been difficult, economy wise, we are in decent shape and not in danger of folding as so many companies have. We have been displaced from our location of 7 years by King County, who is demolishing our building in a few weeks to expand their bus barn. We are relocating to the Magnolia Fisherman's Terminal area of Seattle tomorrow and are looking forward to it. The auction being held on Tuesday is merely selling surplus equipment. We have many items that we are replacing at the new site and many others that we just don't need any more.

I appreciate your kind words and support and I promise that we will strive to merit your accolades for quality and customer service for years to come.

Sincerely,

David Saulnier - President

Subject: Recent Internet Auction

I recently found a link to an internet auction selling what looks to be your cookie production infrastructure: http://www.murphyauctions.net/cougarmountain.html

I certainly hope not! I love your cookies and have done so for the last couple of years since I've moved back to Seattle. The last year you have given me great pleasure when I leave a Mariner's game and I see your "Hit it here" sign. Please tell me that Cougar Mountain isn't going under!

Sincerely,

Herr Colonel
