NEW YORK — Rest easy, America: Subway’s footlong cookie is back. Following a four-month long disappearance, Subway announced Wednesday the “triumphant return” of the oversized chocolate chip cookie, which was pulled from many restaurants less than two weeks after its January debut because of massive demand. The giant cookie was part of Subway’s new Sidekick lineup , a key part to Subway’s turnaround plans, which also includes a number of other changes to its menus as part of its efforts to keep up with rivals.
The lineup also consists of a Cinnabon churro and a soft pretzel from Auntie Anne’s, both of which remained on sale in the past few months. Subway said it has sold more than 5 million cookies since its roll out. Footlong Cookies have returned to Subway menus nationwide.
