Apparently, it takes 18 miles of running to burn off all the calories in four crumbles.

That’s according to TikTok creator Rhys Schmidt, who has recorded himself doing what he calls “impossible runs.” He eats high-calorie foods and tracks how many miles it takes him to burn off the calories consumed.

In one video, Schmidt ate four crumble cookies, which equaled roughly 2,600 calories. He said he felt sick before he started running. At mile 16, he burned through 2,201 and told viewers, “I’m done eating crumbles.”

The popular cookie brand, known for its 6-ounce desserts and unique flavors, has recently come under fire on social media for the calorie count in its cookies.

In fine print below each cookie, Crumble’s menu shows the number of calories per serving. In the latest weekly menu, this number varies from 120 to 210. However, some customers don’t realize that the menu has a drop-down feature that provides full nutritional information and shows that a serving is a quarter of a cookie.

“Normally, it’s not a big problem,” he said. “Except I hit them three at a time.”
