Keebler Vienna Fingers - your teeth don’t look as freaky when you’re thru eating those - and they taste pretty much the same (except they’re not chocolate) ---

> [@Tupug Anachi](#): > > PHAH!!! Late uppitty copycat. Gimme my [Hydrox](http://www.spacefem.com/hydrox/truth.shtml) Do not accept cheesy substitutes. It’s Oreos or nothing. (Did you ever forget you ate a mess of Oreos and then went out immediately afterward and someone told you your teeth were black? I hate when that happens.) ---

> [@Inigo Montoya](#): > > it isn’t an Oreo! > > Just ate 14 of the little bastards. Yum! When I lived in Australia, I found a local store selling them. They were made in Indonesia. After eating just one, I threw away the rest of the package. About as bad as eating anything made by Arrnot’s (except for the Tim Tams!). From then on, only OREO Care Packages from The States would suffice. ---

Awww, guys, haven’t you figured it out yet? Don’t eat the cooked stuff. Chocolate chip cookie dough is the best thing out there now that manna no longer falls from heaven. At Costco, they sell chocolate chip cookie dough by the tub. THE TUB!! And people say there’s no God! ---

I just got back from the grocery store and didn’t buy a single cookie there… because the Girl Scouts were selling cookies out front! Yes! We finished off 4 boxes of Thin Mints in 4 days, so I bought some more. Great in the freezer, over ice cream! ---

14 in a ROW? You must be able to tolerate sweets well - my limit is 3. If I went beyond that I’d start feeling the yeeurghs. But yeah, nothing beats a real Oreo. Did you know the very first Oreos had lemon filling? Yes, they did. ---
