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?
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.)
Better to not buy dry stale cookies.
Eat them all at once
Put them in the other room so that you save some for later, and then keep going back at intervals for just one more, until suddenly there are none left.
All at once so you can repeat it during the entire 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.
Around here, we just call that “Sunday”.
I only had a bottle of Listerine, but two birds, one stone. No need to go brush after now.
The mint will compliment it nicely. I love mint Oreos
Its better not to eat entire bag of Oreo in one day but if you must then its better to spread it over the day to avoid creating large sugar spike in your body.
I don’t think this is true unless you’re diabetic.
For non-diabetics insulin will store all the glucose just fine. Even if you have an elevated level for several hours I don’t think that’s particularly problematic to your health. It’s problematic to diabetics because their levels are elevated perpetually.
You also won’t upset your stomach as much if you spread it out.
Probably across the course of the day parts maybe faster than others
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.
Or grind it into fine dust and sprinkle it into your tobacco, stupid!
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
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.
Huh, is that why I can’t seem to find a non sweet protein powder?
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.
So the question seems to be answered at this point, but on a related note, does anyone else hate that fucking packaging? It never really seals properly, and accessing the cookies on the outer rows is difficult. If you try to reseal it often and make it last a while they fucking go stale.
I’m in Europe and Oreo boxes are waaaay smaller. It’s crazy what Americans are used to buy.
Probably be design to force you to eat them quickly or throw them away. Either way you’re buying more sooner. Here in Europe I don’t remember seeing those trays often and mostly the tubes ones, these are better at keeping them fresh.
As a Canadian, unfortunately the answer is now to not eat them at all because they are an American product. This breaks my heart because I am the type of person that would eat an entire bag throughout the day :(
Yes that’s very on point for the question being asked, thanks.
What about Canadian off-brand? Is that a thing? Like at Canadamart or Tim Horton’s or wherever y’all shop?
So Canada doesn’t have decent cookies either?
I tried them once (in EU) to see what those famous cookies were like and they’re crap.
Not even mediocre.We have “Eat the Middle First” but they’re not that great sadly
technically it’s an off off brand because Oreos themselves are an off brand
True, but Hydrox is also American, so no dice.
darn :(, I tried
This breaks my heart because I am the type of person that would eat an entire bag throughout the day :(
It gets easier, trust me. We’ve been boycotting American (and more) products over here for a while, I barely miss anything anymore.
The answer is to stagger it, rather than risk a sugar crash. Little and often and whenever you like
If you keep dosing, maybe you can keep that high going indefinitely and never have to come down.
I like your thinking
Gooning the Oreo
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.
Eat em all at once. Right before your appointment at the dentist to have your teeth cleaned
Immediately after the tuna salad sandwich. Heck, treat yourself to a big glass of milk with those cookies, too.
Or a milk and onion smoothie
Not to judge you or anything but I’m judging you
