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.)

    I’ve solved that problem by buying two bags. One to eat all at once. And one to spread out over the rest of the day.

    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.

    If you are intermittent fasting, then eat in one 30 minute window. If not, no fucking idea.

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

    I love that the question doesn’t specify what “better” means, and we’re all interpreting it in our own ways. Healthier? More enjoyable?

      It’s better for mother nature if we all try to eat a whole bag in 30 seconds.

    Eating sugary stuff that sticks in your teeth continuously throughout the day is the worst possible you can do for the teeth.

    Binge eating sweets is pretty bad for blood sugar.

    So to balance it out eat a third after every meal for max health and enjoyment.

      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?

    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 :(

    A dentist once answered this question. Better to eat it at once than soak your teeth in sugar for the entire day. Even better if you brush your teeth after, of course.

      Better for your teeth, sure. Nutritionally, I’m pretty sure it’s better to spread it out.

        Nutritionally, it’s terrible either way.

        I think your body would have a better time with it spread out over the course of the entire day. However you’re still absorbing an insane amount of sugar in a single day.

        There’s a chance all at once would result in more of it being pooped out and thus be better … but it’s so close to just eating sugar I expect you’d absorb it and then your body would go into overdrive producing insulin.

        Fine every now and then, but regularly it would be insanely bad no matter which way you do it.
