I was subjected to the homemade variety of cookies.
Way back in the 70s EVERYTHING in the grocery store was made with lard.
Seriously, everything. Â
My family was vegetarian avoiding all animal products especially anything pig which means my mom did a lot more cooking and baking than I do {or she wanted to}.
The funny thing is that I can’t remember NOT knowing about OREO. Â I saw the commercials on TV and the packages on the grocer’s shelves.
I knew EXACTLY how I would eat an OREO cookie.
Times changed and so did OREO.
I ate my first OREO cookie as an adult.
It went almost as I planned…
The top was gently twisted off to expose the inner challenge: Â How to extract the center intact and perfectly circular without leaving center remnants on the other cookie 1/2?
When a knife wouldn’t do the trick, a wire cheese cutter did. Â Age has its advantages.
And now you know the secret to the RIGHT way {completely dismantled} to eat an OREO cookie.
