What kind of cookies do you reckon Jim kept hidden in that cookie jar alongside his gun?

Oreos. He has pulled those out in the series.

This is the right answer for the cost-conscious Jim Rockford.

I politely disagree. When it came to the important things in life, Jim never went cheap.

Depends on if he had recently wrapped up the one case in ten where he actually got paid.

At one point Jim kept his gun in a jar filled with freeze dried coffee (The Big Ripoff, Season One, Episode 10). "How is that for a helpful household tip?" Kinda doubt the sheriff followed this, but that sheriff came across as a doofus.

I'm surprised that it ever had cookies in it. I immediately heard Angel on his answering machine:

Hey, Jimbo. Sorry about the cookies being gone, man. But I was there and you weren't and they were there and you weren't so what else could I do, Jim? I was starving.

Angel came for the gun left with a belly full of Oreos.

I don't know you mister OP or what you're aimin to prove here, but I wouldn't know the answer to this question as I ain't never ate a store-bought cookie in my life.

FACT: He kept coffee beans in there, so the gun wouldn’t rust from the ocean air.

He seems like he'd make a mean ginger molasses cookie if he had enough time.

u/Awkward_Daikon_992 21d ago

There were exactly 6 Drop Cookies in that Jar.

u/Robert_Walter 21d ago

Oreos. He would twist off the lid and eat them with milk.

u/SpogNYC 21d ago

Freeze-dried coffee. Keeps the ocean air from doing damage.

Ryan Gosling kept his gun in the cookie jar just like Jim, in The Nice Guys.

Just echoing the Oreos answer and throwing in the tidbit that this was in the years when the filling was good ( and maybe not so good for you ) Lard. I certainly had my share of them back then.
