Cookie Monster
They say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, and the same definitely applies to dogs. If you want to buy a dog’s affection, the best, surest way to do so is with cookies. Or any kind of food, really. But you can’t go wrong with cookies. People can be bought with money (or food), and dogs can be bought with cookies.

This absolute, universal truth is what makes this meme so great. Any dog owner anywhere in the world can relate to it. Dogs love cookies, there’s just no way around it. We’re sure these two dogs are good friends, but when it comes to cookies, it’s every dog for his own. It’s a dog-eat-dog world.
