It's equivalent to the number you burn off from farting. I did my dissertation on this, so bear with me.
Although my farts typically last about 5 seconds and produce about a liter of gas, the typical person is closer to 1 second and a milliliter. Let's use this as our reference point. Now, for a 175 pound man, that would equate to about 2 calories burned off per fart. As most chocolate chip cookies have around 200 calories, you'd be looking at 100 farts (or, in your case sneezes) before it's a zero sum game.
For most households, that whole process would take about a week.
I only clicked b/c I couldn't believe such a troll thread got a bite, but I have to give you credit for some solid math in a high quality counter-troll response. Well played wacka!

Unfortunately, you actually negatively burn calories when you sneeze. You see, when you inhale to power the sneeze, you inhale a massive amount of air. As you know, air is not simply composed of air, and contains a number of microscopic living entities, all of which have associated caloric content.
Further adding to this phenomena, if the sneeze is projectile and snotatious, you decrease the resistance in your nasal passages. This makes breathing easier, which burns less calories. Your mucus also contains microbes which counteract the air microbes, so blowing out the snot reduces this nullifying effect.
So, to answer your question, negative cookies. If you sneeze a lot, you should be running extra mileage or take snot supplements to counter these effects.

I like to make up words too. I always felt like people misunderestimated my intelligence.
I don't know how much calories will burn but i know this that it burns lots of calories. I am an allergy patient i sneeze a lot . When this sneezing episode happens i would sneeze approx 8 times a minute . After 30 minutes i will be all sweaty and tired. After 1 hour my body will begin to vibrate because of lacks of energy and i will be very hungry very very hungry even if i just ate 1 hour earlier . I didn't seek medication because i like it . It feels like no stress after these episode and i will feel calm and light weight . It will only happen once in 2 months
Thank you boob
