      The ones where the flap still covers 2/3 of the oreos when open?

      But why is that even there? Are people really eating only some of the Oreos and then putting the rest away?

        Well you see, moderation is key.

        • take 2-4, reseal the package
        • repeat until done

        I unhinge my jaw like a snake and consume all the Oreos simultaneously.

          My parents would never allow that, but among my excesses in college: pulling all nighters with a package of double stuffed and a 2L bottle of Mountain Dew. Now I feel nauseous even thinking about it, and my heart probably wouldn’t hold out

        Like the “servings” unit for nutritions which lists 2 oreos. In a pack of 15. removed, I’m gonna eat the whole package. It’s the rule. You can’t just have 2 and then put the pack away. Like, wtf?!

          I do. A standard Oreo is 10g of easy, enjoyable sugar. If my blood sugar is on a downswing and I project I’ll get too low, I grab one or two out of the cupboard.

          They are a medical supply and are dosed as such.

          You know what else needs to be banned? A bag of chips having 1.8 servings in it.

          1 sure, 2… ok. But .8 of a serving? Get the fuck out of here.

            What about cans of spray oil that have hundreds of servings but say 0 calories? No shit, you’ve got no detectable calories when a serving is a 1/4 second of a spray.

      These days there are even some resealable packaging whee the seal doesn’t get ripped off or torn when opening the packet. What a time to be alive.

      When I was younger I found it stupid they started putting candy in resealable bags. Felt like a waste of plastic.

      I know what you are thinking. “But it falls out if I put the bag in pocket/backpack/whatever-” No. Skill issue. …Usually.

      Kind of like how it took decades for us to figure out to put wheels on luggage. I’m sure there are tons of things waiting to be invented that people will look back on us eventually and wondering what took us so long to figure out something so obvious.

        My guess is wheels would not have helped when everywhere is dirt and cobblestones. Wheels appeared when we needed them.

          A wheel is never late, nor are they ever early. They always arrive exactly when they mean to.

      We watched sodapop bottle companies perfect the easy peel tab on the plastic, and then slowly cheap out until it barley releases one bottle if your lucky.

      YBC Noir > Oreos

      (If you ever find yourself in Japan, go into any supermarket and try them - cheaper and nicer-tasting.)

          Noir is two vacuum-sealed rolls in a larger bag as opposed to opening a container with all of the cookies.
