It doesn’t matter what day it is when Oreos bring people together

So when I told the crew yesterday morning that the new Oreos had come home, they appeared at my magical Oreo Office door faster than you can say, “Cookie Dough and Marshmallow Crispy Oreos.”

It really is magical…the way Oreos bring people together. It’s been snowing a ton and polar vortexing all over the place but when there’s Oreos, none of that matters.

Other people tried the Oreos but declined the photo op for fear of a paparazzi swoon.

The consenus is that the marshmallow crispy ones are better than the cookie dough. Funny enough, each and every one of us was looking forward to the cookie dough more than the marshmallow crispy. However, we just could not help but fall in love with the abundant sweetness of the marshmallowy creme complemented by actual pieces of crispy rice!

Everything about this experience makes me happy.

Day 33

According to researchers at Connecticut College, Oreo Cookies are as addicitive as Cocaine.

What the what? Seriously? You mean to tell me that hungry rats gravitated more towards Oreos than Rice Cakes? And that the rats ate the creme filling first? Hold up…high fat, high sugar foods are addicitive?

Come on now…the study did not need to torture poor rats with rice cakes in order to determine what we already know – that Oreos are AWESOME, and addicitive, and delicious, and have yummy creme filling, AND activate happiness neurons in the brain. Aaaaand we are full circle, Oreo Cookies make people happy.

Here’s a link to the study’s details…

This also reminds me – I love sugar cookies too, so thanks to a friend who planted the idea, the other week I made sugar cookie wrapped Oreos. They were delish! I will make them again and bring them to work and snap pix of everyone eating these double delectable delights! There’s gonna be so many happiness neurons activiating in my collegues brains, they are not gonna know what to do with themselves!
