When eating Oreo cookies, do you eat the filling first?

Mmmm… Oreos. We’re drooling just thinking about them!

When you eat an Oreo do you usually twist off the top, eat the filling, then eat the cookies? Or do you bite into the whole cookie and eat everything at once? It’s funny that everyone has their own specific way of eating America’s best-selling cookie, isn’t it? What a strange thing…

Anyway, while you vote we’re going to run to the store because all we want to eat now are Oreos! Darn it!

option 4: Sometimes. If I am dipping in milk, no. But if I’m just having them by themselves, usually.

Tried eating the filling last and that left a sticky mess.

It has probably been at least 25 years since I ate an Oreo. Never was a big fan of them.

Used to love Oreos, but I quit buying them when Nabisco moved a lot of their production out of the country. I try to buy Made In USA as much as possible. Next grocery run I’ll look at the package again. Maybe they came back. Funny, Nabisco moved out, Bimbo, a Mexican bakery, moved in.

Since i was told in an earlier story what to eat, I ‘eschew’ oreos.

Take one half of th e cookie off two Oreo’s, put the filling together (double stuff) and then have the two lone sections, with the remaining filling as ‘dessert’. Hey, in the 70’s, that was innovative!

All my Oreos go swimming in milk before being consumed.

For Christmas I take mint Oreos and dip them in hard mint chocolate icing. They go fast no matter how they’re eaten.

Haven’t had any in a while. But when I did, or do, dunk them in milk.

Love to dunk ’em in milk or coffee, I’m restricted to once maybe twice per year.

As a child, I ate the filling first, but as an adult, I eat the filling and cookie crust at the same time. Hmmm, an adult eating Oreos, oxymoron?

I recently found out that the Aldi sandwich cookie is about half price and has a slightly better taste according to a report.

I break them open, eat the side without filling first, then eat the side with the filling. It’s like eating twice as many cookies.

The way to eat Oreos is to get several ( let your stomach be your guide) and eat all but 2 outside parts, sandwich all together and then eat your reconstructed Oreo with lots of filling!

Sometimes I’ll eat filling first then cookie, other times I like dunking them in milk. Most times, I do eat entire cookie as is. So my answer would be Sometimes, not listed.

I separate one of the two cookies from the filling and eat it (whichever of the two that has less filing on it, ideally the one with no filing). Then I take a second Oreo and do the same to it. I then put the two remaining cookies together by merging the filling. At that point I eat my constructed double-stuff cookie. If the Oreos are already double-stuffed, then I eat each without any modification.

And maybe you burn off a few calories doing all of that extra work in the process, Neal. 😆 Take care. 🙂 –Diane

I like Golden Double Stuff Oreos the best! I put a whole cookie in my mouth, then tip my head back and take a sip of whichever is at hand, coffee or milk. Then I let the cookie get soggy in my mouth before I start chewing, without losing any precious crumbs into a cup of milk or coffee. Three is my limit.

No, hand full of Oreos and a glass of ice cold milk. No time to eat the middle first I don’t want my milk to get warm.

Insert cookie between fore finger and thumb, submerge into cold glass of milk for 11 seconds. Gently remove cookie from milk using minimum amount of pressure on cookie structure, and lay gently on tongue…….repeat. Recipe includes (4) cookies and glass of milk. (works for chocolate chip cookies too)

I answered yes, but I need an additional comment. Regular Oreos are a yes, take off the top and eat the center, put the top and bottom together and enjoy. Now I eat Oreo Thins (I try to tell myself they are healthier) and the filling is thin, so I just eat the cooky and middle together.

I don’t eat the filling. I used to come home from work and find that my daughter had eaten the filling and thrown the cookie in the garbage. AARGH!
