    I got some Oreo Cakesters from 7-Eleven the other day. They were brought home and now I can't find them. I suspect foul play. The next time I see a box, I'll grab it and not take my eyes off of it. I shall have my Cakester.

    Huh? I haven't seen those. Maybe I have to look harder. I'm sure I
    wouldn't hate them.

    I found 'em! I bought a box yesterday. My wife said they tasted like
    Ho Hos without the chocolate covering and were just OK, but I liked
    them. They're great with a glass of milk, but what sweet cake isn't?
    Thanks David! They'll be an occasional purchase from now on.

    I never did get into the practice of dunking stuff in milk because I don't drink milk.

    I have the same thing with tea. Funny how that works.

    I never did get into the practice of dunking stuff in milk because I don't drink milk. Snack cakes are the greatest invention of mankind. These days, man can have a tasty cake at any time of the day. Praise the Lord! At the moment, I'm eating Pineapple
    Cake. It's made in Taiwan. I don't think those people dunk their cake in milk but maybe they dunk it in milk tea.

    My mother used to cram a piece of yellow cake with chocolate frosting
    into a glass, fill up the remaining space with milk, and eat it with
    a spoon. I tried it a few times; it was ok but I never really developed
    the habit. No idea why she did that exclusively with that cake.

    We have Oreos in the house. Several days ago I had a few with milk:
    dunk the Oreo in the milk until it turns a little soft throughout.

    I saw how many different Orea's there are in the cookie section of the store. They even have both covered and ultra thin's. I also saw in the freezer section that they have mixed cups of Oreo cookies and ice cream. Hey! That might even go great with
    various types of liqueur, right? Like, maybe with a hint of crème de menthe de qualité, as the French might say.

    You know what I'd like? Watermelon Oreos. Fat chance in hell that I'd ever get my paws on that one.

    https://www.nbcnews.com/business/consumer/craving-watermelon-oreos-you-may-be-harbinger-failure-shopper-n485326

    "Watermelon flavored", does that mean that the cookie has never been
    close to any water melon? Let's see.

    "Sugar, Unbleached Enriched Flour (wheat Flour, Niacin, Reduced Iron,
    Thiamine Mononitrate {vitamin B1}, Riboflavin {vitamin B2}, Folic
    Acid), Palm And/or Canola Oil, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Cornstarch,
    Salt, Baking Soda, Soy Lecithin, Natural And Artificial Flavor,
    Artificial Color (red 40 Lake, Yellow 5 Lake, Blue 1 Lake)."

    Yup, no water melon in sight. Just the kind of stuff a brave consumer
    like dsi1 loves!

    Did I read that right? Dunking fried chicken in Diet Pepsi? That's
    definitely not "very American".

    I'd try it if the cake were stale.

    You could try it Jill, I suppose. I've heard of dunking BBQ ribs in Cherry Cola for awhile (marinade for a few hours) before putting them on the grill.

    And add Lay's chips to your dinner, douse them in "ranch" and serve
    with corn. Would that be good diner fare?
