What do meringue cookies taste like?

Meringue cookies are dry and crumbley. They have the consistacy of the inside of a malt ball. They aren't bad, but they are dry.They are very very light (airy) in texture. I prefer the lemon meringue cookies, but I would prefer a chocolate cookie if given the choice. Meringue cookies are different in that they are made with only beaten egg whites, and are fat free, and depending on the sweetener you use, can be very low calorie. I personally like to put a couple vanilla flavored ones in my hot chocolate. If I was going to rate them, I'm say a 5. They aren't great, but they aren't the worst.
