In 1996 a group of 4th-grade students at Caln Elementary School in Coatesville initiated proceedings to get sponsorship for a resolution designating the chocolate chip cookie as the official state cookie of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

U.S. Senator Arlen Spector’s website lists the chocolate chip cookie as a Pennsylvania symbol, but does not give a date of enactment. Other sources claim the legislation has been held up for several years as lawmakers struggle between the chocolate chip, Nazareth sugar cookie (House Bill 219), and the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie (House Bill 2479).

Senate Bill 320 (introduced to designate the chocolate chip cookie during the 2003-2004 legislative session) points out that snack food production is a key element of the Commonwealth’s number one industry (agriculture) and that naming an official cookie of the Commonwealth would recognize the steadfast and loyal devotion of the citizens of Pennsylvania to the chocolate chip cookie – this wording appears to be modeled after the legislation adopting the great Dane as the state dog of Pennslvania (“recognizing the steadfast service and loyal devotion of all dogs in Pennsylvania”). One thing is certain – the chocolate chip is the state cookie of Massachusetts, home of the Tollhouse chocolate chip cookie. Click to see all state food symbols.

In 1997 the chocolate chip cookie was recognized as the official cookie of Massachusetts. A third grade class from Somerset proposed the bill honoring the cookie (invented in 1930 at the Toll House Restaurant in Whitman, Massachusetts).

AND PENNSYLVANIA HAD IT FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
