I feel horrible after eating too much sugar now that I am older. I know high-fructose is really bad for you and need to start reading food labels again to see what in the food. I agree with 100% that is irresponsible for food manufacturers to sell they know will kids sick . I know people can chose not to buy the cookies but there are a lot of people that are not aware of how bad a food is for their kids. My child did not get any store brought cookies from me , she get them from friends at school.
 
Oh NO! I have a figure to look after! :shock: Taste can be deceiving. Just because it tastes good doesn't mean it's good for you.

I really don't see how anyone could think Oreo cookies would be good for them. You only need to see what they're made to know this .

I'm sure Jess hasn't touched an Oreo in ages. :P Her only weakness is JD and she even has diet coke with it! So I'm pretty sure Jess is not really seriously looking on the package of oreos questioning their healthy contributions. :) I believe that was intense sarcasm you were experiencing. :laugh2:

I think she's referring towards fruit ect ect. Fruit tastes good, and everyone thinks it's good for you because it's fruit..... but really it's loaded full of sugar and carbs! :P Pretty sure this is Jess's sarcasm at its best. :D I do miss fruit sometimes..... but I allow myself a tiny bit of berries now and again. :D
 
LOL..my roommate bought a box of Oreos for the kids yesterday. I haven't eaten an Oreo in decades. Not crazy about cookies anyway.

:tears: I miss Oreos, How can you not love cookies with milk! OMG! :drool: So delicious! Okay okay, maybe not oreos, there are people that hate them..... ( Not sure how when they have TRIPLE STUFFED ONES!!! ) But, what about a warm, fresh baked chocolate chip cookie..... with an ice cold glass of milk in the winter? No? :tears: SO SAD! :(

I do made real good chocolate chip cookies. My brother in law was having an art show and he wanted to have good cookies for the visitors on open night so he asked me to bake him a few dozen chocolate chip cookies. I made them for my son in law too for a Xmas gift one year and the cookies where done in one day. I can't eat a lot of sugar any more so I do not made chocolate chip cookies anymore.
 
Honestly I'm not a baker but for anyone who would like to bake, I've read about some other alternative sweeteners for baking

...as an idea-

I've tried many desserts made with raw/vegan/natural sugar alternatives and generally like them very much.
