She stared at me in disbelief
and anxious curiosity
while I ate my Oreo whole.
"You're eating it all wrong!
There's a proper way to eat
an Oreo you know."
You're supposed to pull it all apart
and lick off all of the cream
then dunk the cookie bite by bite
into icy cold milk, it seems.
She also said that once you learn
how to properly eat an Oreo
you'll understand what Life is all about
and that's all you'll ever need know.
And I just sat there in silence
holding my Oreo whole up high,
hoping never to learn how to rip
something so wonderful apart.

And to this day I still eat my Oreo's whole
with a contented, happy sigh.

Thanks for sharing snack time with me.
I first posted this October 2001.
I'm happy to say I still eat these things my way.
