Ren and Stimpy have to sell all of the girl scout cookies, which they instead eat. Ren and Stimpy put cacti in the cookie boxes and sell all of the boxes in this manner. Ren loses the cookie money in a card game. The girl scout leader demands that Stimpy and Ren capture a monstrous creature known as a Snipe.

Cast

Production

The Games Animation studio, which took over The Ren & Stimpy Show in 1992 divided their stories into "quicker" cartoons meant to meet the quota imposed by the Nickelodeon network and the more "artistic" cartoons that were given more money and time. [1] Jim Gomez of the Games Animation stated: "The guys that sort of compromised and did stuff quicker than the other guys were kind of carrying the studio They were meeting the requirements, allowing the other guys to produce the shows at their pace. I'm not blaming anybody, but that's the reality. It might had suffered a bit, which was bad, but it was what it was". [1] Eat My Cookies was a "quicker" cartoon assigned to Ron Hughart who was known as "the reliable director" by the network executives. [1] Hughart was a director known for his lack of ego and willingness to take on stories that the other personnel did not want to do. [1] Eat My Cookies was regarded within Games Animation as a "quicker" cartoon of low quality which the other directors did not want to take. [1]

Reception

The American critic Thad Komorowski condemned Eat My Cookies as a story devoid of any humor that was just done to meet the quota. [1] Komorowski blamed the poor quality of Eat My Cookies on Hughart who "lacked the comic sensibility and directorial individuality that Ren & Stimpy cartoons demanded". [1]
