A place where you can get any kind of cookie you want in the store on the highway. Known mostly for chocolate chip cookies, but sugar cookies as well. Also, the rumored whereabouts of Cookie Gilhrist's son, Cookie Caruana, is said to be in Cookietown, USA! Cookie Caruana made the trek (with the cookie monster) late last August. The reasoning behind this courageous journey was to eat cookies. Upon Cookie Caruan's arrival he was greeted with the largest earthquake to ever hit Oklahoma. Cookie Caruana was not injured, but the cookie monster did not make it. While this monster quake shook some, Cookie Caruana continued on with his cookie eating frenzy.
