Double Stuf Oreos do not, in fact, contain double the Stuf
as the originals. This is an outrage
You know...with the 24-hour news cycle we have going on these days, the level of manufactured outrage is a little ridiculous. But this one seems to have gone unnoticed, and I have no idea why.
Indeed. Last year, a High School Math Class performed an experiment on the amount of creme filling (or "Stuf") in Oreo cookies, coming to the conclusion that the self-proclaimed "Double Stuf" Oreos contained 1.86x the mount of Stuf as the original recipe. Close, sure, but predictably not double, as the advertisement tells us. Just one more way corporate America is putting the screws to the little guy.
Speaking of America...
I unfortunately have to cut my Oreo diatribe a little short today to bring you important news that will cause even further outrage.
Geeze, Jeremy. All this outrage on a Friday?
I know, I know...but this can't wait.
The US Olympic committee, in association with soon-to-be-disgraced fashion designer Ralph Lauren "proudly" unveiled the official uniform for Team USA's march in the Opening Ceremony. It is Unbelievably Awful. I've started discussions with some folks at work here to see about getting honorary citizenship to their countries for the duration of the opening ceremonies just so I don't have to be associated with that ridiculous monstrosity. So far, I've been turned down by Canada, but hopes are still alive for Bosnia. Seriously...that thing is like Uncle Sam drank a little too much and barfed America all over an Ugly Christmas Sweater. Also...white pants after Labor Day? What's up with that?
