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.
Till the cookie is mushy but not so mushy it falls apart.
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.
Yeah in the UK, Oreos are the lowest common denominator too. You'd have to finish the custard creams, bourbons, fly cemeteries and the dusty old packet of pink wafers you inherited when your gran died before you'd consider an Oreo
Hob Nobs are top tier. 🤌
Close, *homemade hobnobs are top tier. Trust me, I'm an emigrant 😂
That’s why we’re talking about dipping them
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.
Drop them all in at once and slowly sip the milk. Enjoy the delicious at the bottom when finished.
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
No set time, I hold them under until the bubbles stop.
Uhhhhh zero seconds. I don't like milk and thus I don't dip my cookies in shit.
Fair.
F: Zero seconds.
Step 1: Eat a cookie Step 2: Drink Milk Step 3: Goto Step 1
I rarely dip, I mostly put the dry oreo in my mouth and take a sip.
I like dry Oreos, especially when they are on the verge of being stale and they soften.
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.
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 remember watching a Mythbusters or similar show that concluded that the time out of the milk after dipping is more important than the time in the milk. I've been doing that ever since, one dip than 5 seconds out then dip again and 5 seconds out again and it's perfect every time.
How does that work?
Not sure, I guess exposing the cookie to air let's the milk seep in deeper.
D or E
I stick a fork through the middle, then try to get as close to the cookie falling off as I can.
Chocolate chip cookies for me, and as long as I can before it starts to fall apart.
I like playing chicken with them

3 seconds: normal human bean
-
5 seconds: borderline philistine, yet understandable
-
10 seconds: I will gawk in incredulity at your shenanigans
-
15 seconds: you are an absolute Madlad
-
30 seconds: you revolting against what? And what for? Do you even have principles?
-
longer: who hurt you?
