Answer:

Because "cookies" has nothing to do with cook, it's just a coincidence. Same goes for bacon.

Answer:

Bacon comes from bak-, the same root as our word back. It's the back meat of a pig. Bake has as its root an old word meaning "warm." Bacon can be baked and it's delicious. It can also be fried, obviously.

Cookie actually comes from a word meaning cake (which bacon is not), although cake comes from the Latin word for cooking. However, that word generically referred to preparing food so baking would at that time have fallen under the usage of the word cook. Cookies can be fried and fried cookies are delicious, although baking is more common.

What does “if there is right or kind choose kind
Lapatulllka [165]
I’m assuming you’re asking what that means. It means that you should always do things the kind way, even if it doesn’t exactly line up with what should be done. For example, I’m sure you’ve seen the movie Aladdin. Aladdin was a beggar and didn’t have food, so he stole. The guards wanted to kill him, which was the right way to handle things. However, the kind way to have settled this was to let him have the bread because he was starving.
