Do you buy oreos?

How about the Little Debbie brand. Their slogan, and I'm not making this up, used to be "Little Debbie has a taste treat for you." I always found that disturbingly suggestive, but perhaps only because my wife's name is Deb. She used to go by Debbie when we were younger.

Yes, please.
My daughter loves baking cookies.

 

I never buy them - I'm with Rae Vynn on that one!
It's kind of funny that the ingredients for oreo cookies has chocolate listed as the last ingredient.

You wouldn't expect much chocolate (or coco) in an Oreo. They are hard wafer cookies with a vanilla cream filling. The only chocolate is in the wafers, and then it's only enough to add some flavor without making the cookie soft. They aren't really chocolate cookies; they are chocolate flavored wafer cookies.

One of the factories that makes oreo's is Contintinetal Bakery in northwest Ohio. I've heard creepy stories about what can get into the cookie batches (not intentional), but I suppose that's true of any food manufacturing. Afterall, remember what's been found in fast food burgers and chilli?

 

Pancakes > oreos.
FudgeeO's too. :rockon:

 

I tend to not purchase them unless I'm looking for cookies, or they're being marketed as on sale. They are usually an impulse buy more than anything else.

But Milanos for life. Best cookies ever, IMO

 

chips-ahoy

Nope, but a "Nutter Butter" is a multitude of levels above those pedestrian treats.

 

Oreos just haven't been right since they stopped making the filling with genuine lard.

Lard and sugar, two of the basic food groups in one filling.

 

Four basic food groups - lard, sugar, caffeine, alcohol. :madgrin:

 

Dip your Oreos in Four Loko instead of milk and they will be the perfect balanced diet.

Of course, I mean sugar IS good for diabetics...right?

Okay, maybe not so much.... but when I absolutely can't resist - I will get some... but then my father wipes them out....along with all the milk...

 

I would have expected a higher percentage of fat but if the imitation tastes close to the real thing, I defer to their expertise.
