Umm... I don't think this is a real puzzle 
. It sounds like some clever wordplay, but can we get the source on this? Where did this come from? Is there any math or game theory behind it? I'm not buying that Spock is an expert at cookies... unless it's just a fun meme 
. I'd love to see some calculations or explanations before I give it my seal of approval

. I had a similar experience with friends when we played a game of "who can get the most tickets to an event" and it was all about finding that sweet spot 
. For me, the key is always thinking about everyone's goals and trying to find a balance that works for everyone. Bea's move in this cookie conundrum is genius 
- I wouldn't have thought of taking all the remaining cookies! 
i think i've got a possible solution tho... if celine takes 3 cookies she leaves bea with the most & andy with the least which is not cool. but if celine takes 2 cookies bea can take all remaining 8 & it works!!!
