Returning with yet another scathing critique of her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga’s most recent business endeavor, Sprinkle Cookies, comes Teresa Giudice. If you have been watching The Real Housewives of New Jersey, you are aware that one of the main points in Teresa and Melissa’s ongoing conflict has been the notorious sprinkle cookies incident. Melissa now appears to be using that identical turmoil as material, although with a dash of sweet desperation.
Sprinkle by MG Teresa responded to Melissa’s announcement of her new cookie line on X with the straightforward yet poignant message, “You are welcome.” She gently reminded followers in that tweet that Melissa’s most recent business venture might not have succeeded without her.
You probably know the story that made these cookies famous if you are a viewer of RHONJ. On Christmas Eve, Melissa, who was quite pregnant, took a package of sprinkle cookies to Teresa Giudice’s house for a holiday get-together. Evidently unimpressed, Teresa’s mother-in-law threw the cookies in the garbage, starting a series of incidents that would exacerbate the family conflict for years to come.
Teresa’s talent to transform any tiny argument into a scene that fans would never forget allowed what may have been a trivial issue to swiftly escalate into a significant Real Housewives event. An iconic aspect of the RHONJ legacy was Teresa’s response to the cookie incident and her eventual split from Melissa. Sprinkle cookies suddenly became more than just a festive confection; they represented the growing gap between the Gorgas and the Giudices.
Now, fourteen years later, Melissa is making the most of that same moment by starting her new company, Sprinkle by MG.
