I regret it so hard!

I just find out that 'Cheated cookies taste awful' achievement is not a steam achievement after I cheated. I am not really person type who cheated games all the time. I was target this achievement only and I ended up unlocked over 200 achievements I don't want in the first place. Wish I can travel back to stop myself from make a mistake!

I wouldn't worry too much about it, most likely the achievements you unlocked are something like "Bake a million cookies", which seems like a lot but you actually get there pretty fast, just start a new game and do it honestly, it will be basically the same.

Not quite. I flipped through his achievements to see what the fuss was and he got all of the level 10 buildings this morning all at once, among several other endgame achievements. He has literally all of them now, and I think he's at least a little justified in feeling upset about that. I know if that happened to me it'd ruin the game for me.

OP, I don't know if you feel any guilt about this, but don't. Tons of people cheat this game. The Steam achievements are nigh-meaningless. If you want to actually earn those achievements for yourself in a way that'll be gratifying to you, you have a few options. You can wipe your save clean and go off of the in-game achievements. Based on the timestamps on your achievements it doesn't look like you'd be set back that far, and using an autoclicker mod can help you catch up in a way that isn't quite as flagrant as my next suggestion, which is to import someone else's save and play from a point that is well into the game but not totally broken just yet. Your last option is to take this as a sign from the universe that it's time to move on from this game. Only you can decide for yourself if there's more enjoyment to be gleaned from Cookie Clicker, and if there isn't I would say this is a great point to walk away from it. If there is more fun to be had, though, read on.

My suggestion to you is to use the first option. Wiping your save sounds dramatic and like a waste of all the time you put into the game, but it is important to remember that this is just a game, and with mods you can get back into the swing of things without hurting your wrist trying to re-click all those cookies by hand. If you want advice on which mods I recommend based on your relationship with this game and where you were before, we can discuss this further. It's up to you.

It will make Cookie Clicker somewhat less fun but at least you still have to unlock them in game.

theres an app to cheat in archivements, you can use it to reset them too

I agree with this. I had mixed feelings about this with a different game (Payday 2). It's gonna feel like a double edged sword no matter what. If you reset just the in-game achievements it feels weird, if you do it for all of steam the timeline of when you got the game and how long you played versus the achievements looks weird too. Either way it leaves a level of guilt but it's okay since Cookie Clicker has 583 achievements so you have plenty of chances to earn things legit. It will take you years, but it's the fun of seeing the payoff of all your hard cookie clicking. Count your losses, move on, and don't let it stop you from enjoying cookies (I prefer milk chocolate chip but I will also have oatmeal raisin every now and then).
