How Do You Eat an Oreo? Dunk, Twist, Lick…What?

I like to think you can tell a lot about a person by how she eats an Oreo cookie.

Take me, for example: I eat the cream-filled chocolate cookies the exact same way every time. First, I will only ever eat two Oreos in one sittingā€”never more, never less. Second, there is an exact science to the cookie consumption: I twist apart the cookie, nibble out the cream center, eat the chocolate halves, repeat. The process is tidy, orderly, some would say analā€”sort of like myself. Oh, and there's absolutely no milk involved, because I detest all things soggy…

CafeMom readers recently weighed in on how to eat an Oreo. Who knew there were so many possibilities?

  • Only eat the middle.
  • Dunk it in milk.
  • Eat cookies first. Then, eat the cream filling.
  • Eat the middle first. Then, eat the cookies, washed down with a glass of milk.
  • Dunk and eat the whole package.
  • Only eat the cookies.
  • Twist apart. Soak half the cookie. Eat it. Soak the other half. Eat that. Then drink some milk. Repeat.
  • Throw cookies in a tall glass of milk, and wait until they get soggy. Then, eat them with a spoon while drinking the remaining Oreo sludge.
  • Dip it in Cool-Whip.
  • Smother it in peanut butter.
  • For double-stuffed Oreos: Twist apart andĀ put the two cream sides together. making a quadruple-stuffed Oreo! Then, soak it in milk until soft.
