National Oreo Cookie Day

Put down that Hydrox! Don't even look at the Shoprite brand Chocolate Creams!

Get a glass of milk and enjoy National Oreo Cookie Day. 

Okay, here's the survey. How do you eat them?

1. Whole, dunked in milk as ordained by the Almighty
2. Whole, with a milk chaser, as is also acceptable
3. Twist them apart, licking the cream filling off the cookie and then eating the cookie wafers separately (i.e. "The way of the devil")
4. Twist two cookies apart and stack the two sides with cream on them together, then eat them because your mom didn't get Double Stuf like you asked.

Number 2.  You get the flavor and texture.

5. I break them in half to make them last longer. And I like them with black coffee although I do not dunk. That makes them soggy and I dig the crunch.

They don't break evenly but that's okay. I try to get two bites out of each cookie. These are my stoned go-to guilty pleasures. Of course since I've been sober, I eat fewer of them. They sell a six pack here in JC for a buck. Can't beat that. No, sireee.

6. Twist them a part, lick off the icing. Ignore the cookie.

Open a package of Mallomars.

 Blasphemy! I cast you out! 

#1.  The skill and thrill lies in sensing the exact instant to lift it out of the milk, when it is thoroughly infused but a moment before it is soggy enough to break off and sink.

A friend and I would complain, during summers at Fire Island, that these delicacies were seasonal. Hard to enjoy a summer day with only Oreos to sustain you.

I stand by my choice.
