Dunno - didn't ask. I suspect that since it is the regular truck that picks up
that it finishes in the landfill.

  Recipe created by Christina Tosi

  Combine the butter, sugars and glucose in the bowl of a
  stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and cream
  together on medium-high for 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down
  the sides of the bowl, add the egg and vanilla, and beat
  for 7 to 8 minutes.

  Reduce the speed to low and add the flour, baking powder,
  baking soda and salt. Mix just until the dough comes
  together, no longer than 1 minute. (Do not walk away from
  the machine during this step, or you will risk overmixing
  the dough.) Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a
  spatula.

  Still on low speed, add the chocolate chips, butterscotch
  chips, graham crust, oats and coffee, and mix just until
  incorporated, about 30 seconds. Add the potato chips and
  pretzels, and paddle, still on low speed, until just
  incorporated. Be careful not to overmix or break too many
  of the pretzels or potato chips. (You deserve a pat on the
  back if one of your cookies bakes off with a whole pretzel
  standing up in the center.)

  Using a 2-ounce ice cream scoop (or a 1?3-cup measure),
  portion out the dough onto a parchment-lined sheet pan.
  Pat the tops of the cookie dough domes flat. Wrap the
  sheet pan tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at
  least 1 hour, or up to 1 week. Do not bake your cookies
  from room temperature-they will not bake properly.

  Heat the oven to 375oF/190oC.

  Arrange the chilled dough a minimum of 4 inches apart on
  parchment- or Silpat-lined sheet pans. Bake for 18
  minutes. The cookies will puff, crackle and spread. After
  18 minutes, they should be very faintly browned on the
  edges yet still bright yellow in the center. Give them an
  extra minute or so if that's not the case.

  Cool the cookies completely on the sheet pans before
  transferring to a plate or an airtight container for
  storage. At room temp, cookies will keep fresh for 5 days;
  in the freezer, they will keep for 1 month. 

  Makes 15-20 cookies
