How many Oreos is it okay to eat each day before it's considered a problem?
Conservatively, I'm putting the number somewhere around 45. But that's just me, and I can stop any time I want to.

1. It only becomes a problem when the number of Oreos that you eat
starts to interfere with the number that are available for me to eat. Then we have a problem. And god help you if you take the last one...

9. Pirate; You cannot say you have lived until you've had Van Otis Swiss fudge!
http://www.vanotis.com/view_items.asp?D=1 I thought it was a national chain, but I guess it's just my hometown w/some sales in New England. I limit myself to 1/2 lb. a year, but I could eat it every day.

12. What do you drink with your Oreos?
Is there any danger of running out of that? Perhaps you should buy a dairy cow.

16. I usually only eat one or two at a time.
Of course, I make that one or two by taking the filling of seven or eight oreos and sticking a pair of the cookie bits on either end... :P

18. Hubby has managed
to stay disciplined. Three chocolate for him after dinner and two golden for the dog.
You ought to see the dog do his 'cookie dance.'
I have none, but make up for it with an addiction to potato chips.

20. When we were first married, Mr. MANative worked for Nabisco
as a Sales Rep. He'd come home from work with grocery bags of the stuff after their weekly sales meetings. Never did find the upper limit on those Oreos.... ;)

22. At last! An expert's opinion!
I knew that it was pointless to bandy about with fellow dabblers. Thanks for bringing an informed opinion into the discussion!

23. My pleasure to add to the discussion! I am most grateful,
however, that he only worked there about 2 years. I'd weigh 700 lbs by now if he'd stayed! :rofl:
