While recognizing that there are more delicious vegan cookies this year than Santa could fit into a supersized sack, PETA made a list (yes, we checked it twice) of its Top 10 Favorite Festive Vegan Cookies—and the scrumptiously spiced Ginger Pine-Apricot Cookie from local bakery Like Mom’s Only Vegan nabbed a spot.

“The craveable pineapple and apricot –loaded Ginger Pine-Apricot Cookie from Like Mom’s Only Vegan delivers fabulous flavor without using a single egg or splash of milk,” says PETA President Ingrid Newkirk, who knows her vegan cookies, having eaten them for over 50 years. “Every delicious cookie on PETA’s ‘nice’ list helps bring peace on Earth to all living beings in this season of goodwill.”
On a more somber note, every person who goes vegan spares nearly 200 animals each year daily suffering and terrifying deaths and reduces their own risk of developing heart disease and cancer. PETA’s free vegan starter kit can help those looking to make the switch.
Like Mom’s Only Vegan will receive a framed certificate from PETA and bragging rights for the holiday season. Other winners include the Black and White Cookie from Ben & Esther’s Vegan Jewish Deli; the Marzipan Cookie from Sweet Maresa’s in Kingston, New York; and the Chocolate Raspberry Cookie from Bake Me Vegan in Teton Village, Wyoming.
PETA—whose motto reads, in part, that “animals are not ours to eat”—opposes speciesism, a human-supremacist worldview. For more information, please visit PETA.org, listen to The PETA Podcast, or follow the group on X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, or Instagram.
