I don't care about what's in an oreo, they're delicious... It's a
cookie! If there's one universal trait of the cookie, it's that it
is not a healthy food.
"Oh my God! This cookie is making me fat!!! "
No, the cookie is designed for one purpose: to inflict "tastebudial"
pleasure on the consumer. In this, the oreo has always managed
to succeed. Not only in the cookie-world, either. Anybody ever had
Cookies and Cream Ice Cream? It's the best flavor ever. What
happens to that if this guy is successful in his lawsuit? Not only do
we lose the greatest cookie ever, but the greatest ice cream, too.
I don't think people realize just how important the Oreo is to
modern day society. We can't allow this person to win!
Next thing you know, Pizza Hut will be sued because their pizzas
inlclude cheese. Ooh, speaking of The Hut, I just saw on TV that
they've brought back the P'Zone! Yay!
This Oreo news couldn't have come at a worse time in my life...
Two days ago I found out that my local 7-11 won't be carrying
Fig Newtons anymore. They've been selling them off at a reduced
price. Normally they're $0.65 for a pack of two, but they've been
reduced to $0.38 until the inventory is cleared out. This is only
one of two stores that I know of that carry this specific type of
Newton.
