If we MUST eat a entire bag of Oreos.

Which scenario is better?

  • Eat the entire bag in 30 minutes
  • Eat the bag slowly, and evenly throughout a day?

    Smash them up and dump the crumbs into a glass. Now it’s a drink and no longer subject to the tyrannical nutritional guidelines of the medical establishment, leaving you free to consume it as you please.

      I put about 5 (or sometimes 10) into a glass of milk then mash it up with a spoon. Makes a great smoothie. Hell that might be a good breakfast idea

    More enjoyment if you spread it out over the whole day, plus you won’t barf. You might shit liquid, but y’know, lesser evil I’d say.

    You’re eating those as a treat, not for your health. You probably know the negative impact that sugar and trans fats have, so if you’re going to treat yourself, I’d say make sure to make it count.

    Do you get more overall pleasure from a little bit of enjoyment throughout the day or from a lot of enjoyment for a short amount of time? Maybe half now and half later or tomorrow? That’s how I decide how to eat/do stuff that I enjoy but know can negatively impact my health if I over do it.

    If you do want to make it less unhealthy though, try to make sure they’re not the only thing in your stomach and rinse your mouth after you’re done eating them.

      Eat them right before a big, protein heavy meal. The sugar will stimulate insulin production which will help to process more of the protein. And then have a couple for dessert.

          no that’s probably because whey tastes absolutely awful so they try to cover up the flavor.

          it’s usually a synthetic sweetener and I’ve found plant based protein powders are usually less guilty of it.

            I’m vegan anyway, so I go for soy protein! But I’d like an unflavored one to add to my oats and flavour them a different way. First world problem though.

          You can buy unflavoured whey concentrate or isolate in bulk for very cheap. I used to use it to make protein pancakes for breakfast all the time.

          Nom nom nom.

          Edit: I see you’re vegan. Not sure I’ve seen unflavoured vegan ones.

    Scrape off all the cream and eat a bowlful of that, then snack on the burnt cookies the rest of the day.

    In a large bowl, combine 750ml of your closest booze and the Oreos. Use a potato masher to create a smooth yet chunky consistency. Best enjoyed naked while binge watching Bojack Horseman.

      Can confirm, I felt like that once and it made me quit Oreos for a long while. I still don’t quite enjoy them as much and do limit how many I eat. So I guess that’s good?

    Better to eat it at once. Your system can work away the high blood sugar level and then go back to normal.

    If you create high blood sugar again and again, it is stressful for your pancreas all day long. Do that often and you will get overweight, and then diabetes.

    Oreo’s have had all their flavor sucked out of them through enshitification—and to make you eat more to feel satisfied.

    Go to any grocery store (like TJ’s) and just buy “Sandwich Cookies.” THEY taste like Oreos used to.

    (But, you have to eat them fast as they degrade quickly like actual food, something Oreos isn’t.)
