Oreos.

Whole pack, no problem. And it's one of the few foods where I know exactly what's in it and I don't even care.

You can't resist Oreos. Or Cheetos for that matter; they're engineered to be appealing. Well, except for the Oreo-teeth or Cheeto-finger thing.

Ever notice that foods developed by industrial scientists tend to end in "-os"? Fritos, Cheerios, Bac-os, Elio's pizza (rectangle cafeteria pizza) . . . crack cocaine . . .
