    So glad to see this thread living on! I must add a somber haiku:

    Being Ash Wednesday
    The red velvet Oreos
    Sit idle today

    Agnosticism for the win!

    Although I am more of a crunchy, salty myself, I have to admit that when the time of the month comes there is nothing like a double stuffed Oreo dunked in vanilla frosting! Did I Just Say That Outloud?

    Nope. You typed it out silent.

    Although I don't identify with any specific faith practice, if I did, I would lean towards Buddhism. So I could love all the Oreos (quadruple style), before noon :sunglasses:

    double stuff is so much better than the original. Quadruple stuff rocks even more.

    Soulmate!

    That's a bold statement. I have an axe, a hatchet, rope, bungees, and tarps in my car.... Still feel safe? Or is it all good as long as there's quadruple stuff Oreos? :laugh:

    Question: Since I abstained from Oreos yesterday, does that mean I get to eat twice as many today?

    Net averages say yes.

    When I was 11, I spent a month at a summer camp in Brazil. One evening they took me up in front of everybody in the dining hall to sing me happy birthday and blow out candles on a birthday cake. Imagine my surprise when I took my first bite and found out it was chocolate cake with prunes baked into it. It was actually pretty good but funny to me as I'd never had something like that. These cookies remind me of that.

    Not an Oreo (nor any kind of pre-packaged cookie), but a co-worker brought in these homemade cookies today, and it felt like a good reason to bump this awesome thread.

    That looks amazing.

    On an Oreo related note:
    Workout was late last night so post workout nutrition doubled as a bedtime snack. What did I have, you ask?

    1 scoop whey (in water to save calories for Oreos)
    3 cups 2% milk (casein for midnight muscle building)
    6 original Oreos

    Booyah!!!

    Honestly these are my favorite packaged cookies

    But of course they're only available in some specific stores in France, so it probably doesn't count.

    But I still like Pepperidge Farm more than Oreos :p

    Those look about as exciting as a bran muffin.

    Seeing this gives me the feeling maybe some kid in a sweat shop in China had the job of crushing up Oreos to make these. And those may not be raisins in there. :) lol

    And about 1/2 as tasty...

    You have no idea what you're missing... pure buttery goodness... of course the big ones are like 90 calories each *sigh*

    Please tell me this is not so? I went to my grocery store yesterday and the tag for the cinnamon bun ones where gone :( I got like the last package. I checked Walmart's website and it says no longer sold. I am now very sad.

    That's a compliment. They used to hand these out at church when I was a kid (because presumably cookies with chocolate were too decadent?) Anyway they taste like really sweet cardboard.
