A: 3 seconds B: 5 seconds C: up to 10 seconds D: up to 15 seconds E: longer

My choice is E, since 30 seconds introduces the prime ratio of milkiness to flavor.

      Other people have given me a hard time for using that as the metric for when they’re done. It’s not my fault they interpret it as me drowning the cookie.

        I’m surprised Oreo hasn’t done a Halloween ad campaign about how people eat their cookies: Hold it under until the bubbles stop, twist its head off, eat it in tiny nibbles.

      I like to bite off just a little of the top and bottom of the sandwich cookie to aid in airflow/flooding, since the baked finish is sometimes nearly air tight.

    I’m one of those monsters that eats the oreo and then washes down with milk. No dipping

      Opposite here: crush some in a cup, fill with milk and eat with a spoon

      I’m one of those monsters that eats it raw.

        I’m one of those monsters that don’t usually eat oreos.

        Never saw the appeal - I prefer sweeter, chocolate or strawberry-flavoured sandwich cookies instead. (Kind of weird given that I tend to gravitate towards bitter food.)

        Raw, microwaved, fried, frozen or drowned - there’s no wrong way to eat an Oreo.

    In Finland we have a “local Oreo” called Domino. Oreo always had this mythical reputation as a famous american cookie almost no one had tasted. Then Oreos came to the stores here for the first time so I naturally bought a pack to try them out. I never bought another one. Those are incredibly dry and dull tasting compared to the Domino cookies I’m used to.

    Just 3 seconds. The Oreos manufactured in my part of the world are very porous and absorb liquid way too fast, and I don’t like having my cookie crumble and break into my beverage just mere milliseconds away from touching my lip.

    I alternate cookie and milk bites/sips so I have a crunch that suddenly melts when in my mouth. I don’t like biting into sogginess.

    Until it’s too late to save it because I dropped it in the milk several minutes and fuck shit ass I forgot thanks to ADHD because ooo lizards.

    • Exactly, you wait until you feel it just starting to dissolve under your fingers and then try to pull it out fast and gentle. If you are in any way slightly wrong it’s gone

    Drop them all in at once and slowly sip the milk. Enjoy the delicious at the bottom when finished.

    1. Fill a cup with oreos.
    2. Cover with milk.
    3. Wait until oreos become paste.
    4. Stir and eat with spoon.

    Also, my favorite cookie/biscuit used to be Mother’s Taffy sandwich cookies, but then they went out of business, got bought out, brought back, and ruined by completely changing the recipe. Pretty sure the new recipe is just cardboard pulp and reclaimed wastewater.

    I miss those.

      I like dry Oreos, especially when they are on the verge of being stale and they soften.

    I like to dip it far enough that my fingers are in the milk a little too so that I can feel once the oreo starts to get soft.

    I’m perfectly happy with 5 seconds, or not dipping at all. Eat cookie, drink milk. Still enjoyable one after the other.

    My wife’s a 5-second dipper, though, so I have adopted her practice when she’s around.
