“Skinny Oreos”? Not in My ‘Merica

The people who make Oreo cookies have gone too far this time. According to the business section of the Chicago Tribune, the newest "twist" (pun intended) on Oreos are what they call Oreo Thins. Oreos were made to be twisted, separated, dunked and/or scrapped clean with your front teeth.

Oreo Thins are not.

According to Janda Lukin, senior director of Oreo for North America, if regular Oreos are like pancakes, Oreo Thins would be like crepes. And she thinks this is a good thing. I'm asking for Ms. Lukin to immediately step down from her position. For the good of all fans of (formerly) lard filled cookies.

Here's the whole sordid story.
