    I should have known from the thread title that I should not open it, but I had to peek behind the curtain. @Carlos_421 double stuff is so much better than the original. Quadruple stuff rocks even more. Homemade is by far the best, fresh out of the oven. I don't know how I am going to sleep with all this sadness filling my mind :cry:

    I feel I must clarify.

    Oreos are the best PACKAGED cookie.

    Nothing beats a warm home baked chocolate chip cookie straight from the oven.

    Won't eat an Oreo. Too unhealthy. If I crave a cookie I buy a single serve organic cookie without high fructose corn syrup and other junk added to be able to make it cheaper. I go for the real thing.

    Oreos are horrendously overrated. Not bad, but the fact that I have a pack on my desk which is only half finished while having bought about 20 different packets since I acquired the packet originally.... it speaks volumes....

    about your lack of humanity...

    or more likely, that I am a bit classier when it comes to biscuits.....

    You probably don't even know what it is to soak an Oreo in milk until it no longer floats and then squish it between your tongue and the roof of your mouth.

    You're killing me here! If I had an oreo 2 cookie pack right now.....Breakfast!

    Haha!! Not to be a diet destroyer but...the six packs are only 270 calories...totally worth it.

    I make my own Oreos. They are yummy chocolate creamy and a healthy version of the real thing. My late husband (he died young) believed that 75% of Cancer is caused by the chemicals, artificial colors and preservatives in foods including pesticides. In the medical newsletters he received from the of Obstetrics and Gynecology is a report that today they are finding very high amounts of pesticides in infant cord blood. This tells you how saturated mother's bodies are. I pay the few dollars extra for USDA certified organic. Our bodies are stressed enough as it is from environmental pollution. By eating only organic we are protecting our bodies from the potential of further irreversible damage. Personal choice.

    I'm late to the party but....so in.

    When I went to Spain, I stayed with a gal who had been an exchange student & stayed at our house the year before.

    My "breakfast" was 2 fudge covered oreos and a glass of Tang.

    I try not to have Oreos in my house because I tend to over-indulge in them. 2 is simply not enough :(

    The Oreo minis are pretty great. I like being able to eat 9 cookies instead of 2.

    I have not had opportunity to try many of the flavors, but Double Stuf is by far the best.

    Oreos are the best PACKAGED cookie.

    Your title did say it. Reading comprehension, I need some. Or to stop responding to threads so late at night!

    Despite drooling over this thread for the past day, I just went to the store and passed the Oreos by to get to the Belvita Soft Bakes. I'm feeling uber-virtuous at the moment, although I do have to go back to the store tomorrow...

    They were my favorite cereal of all time while they still existed.
