The Avengers movie isn't out yet, but that doesn't mean that you can't snack out of a Marvel cookie jar. This product is perhaps the most heroic cookie container around, and comes in either Hulk or Captain America form.
I have a soft spot for Captain America, but there is something oddly appealing about pulling cookies out of the Hulk. Each jar weighs in at 5.5lbs and sells for $44.99. The jars are currently available for pre-order and are expected to arrive sometime in February 2012.
The cookie jar has recently exploded in popularity as everyone from DIY crafts people to comic powerhouses have remixed the iconic kitchen accessory. The Marvel cookie jar may be the first of many pop culture cookie jars to come in the new year.
