Seriously, what IS the point in licking Oreos?!


Question: Why does that boy on the advert say you've got to lick 'em?
It even says on the pack to lick them. I tried it unlicked and licked an they both tasted exactly the same....OK thr licked one tasted a bit more slimey but only because it had my saliva all over it.
Somebody PLEASE explain.

DAMNit!! Now you made me want Oreos! I'm pregnant and I have been ignoring my cravings everytime I hit the grocery store and see them but THIS is just cruel and unusual punishment, bringin them up at this hour!

lol their not nice haha

it is a sport and it taste good what else do you want?

it's deeeeelicious.

cause then you get the best part first.

i really would like to know the answer myself haha.. good question... there doesn't seem to be a difference...

Because that's tradition. Don't ever mess with tradition.

You also forgot about milk... which is the longest tradition.

the point is to get lard on your tongue so it softens up when you have the hard crumbs of the cookie.

Thats just the fun of it i guess, people just try to lick it to get more flavour but i guess it tastes exactly the same!!!

I don't mind licking.

I always lick the salt & vinegar from the chips then eat them.

Licking them makes you feel like a kid again!

Yummy. =]

i usually scrape the cream off and eat it. its delicious. its just the slogan oreo have been trying to push. twist lick and dunk or something. i think dunking is even weirder than the licking part

there is absolutely no point at all.

The people that make those adds are retarded

ugh!! i don't know..but its nasty...oreos just wanna sell..an i gues s kids are the best to market...so they no kids will lick it

i dont know. i dont lick them either. nor do i drink a glass of milk with them. instead i up the fun by seeing how many i can get into my mouth all at once. as it turns out, not many!

Um...it's tradition? TWIST, LICK, DUNK, EAT! (Or something along those lines...)

I don't even like Oreos.

There is no point except to hide the truth from people that they taste better dunked in milk. It's a conspiracy!!!!

I'm not sure either.
lol. some people like the cream in the middle alot.
take some out then put it together.
i find that HELLA disgusting.
bbut yeahhh i really dont know.
=]
uhhhh... yeahh... they taste the same.

OMG, IM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT THINKS LICKING THEM IS INSANE? we totally need to form a club, i mean god, they are put together, dont take them apart! whats the point?!? if you like the frosting so much.. you gotta eat the cookie by itself now its not worth it... *pulls hair out* so aggrivating

cos it tastes good

It's all a massive conspiracy we are all in on. The advertisers decided to try to make consumers do something stupid, and see if anyone actually did it to evaluate the effectiveness of advertising. The rest of us were asked to watch out for anyone who actually followed the instructions given...AND HERE YOU ARE! They'll send you a prize soon...you get unlimited free stamps just ready for licking.

Its... really not a big deal honestly. Probably someone in the early stages of Oreo marketing decided to eat them "separated" (take off the tops & lick the center) rather then the a-typical way of eating them (bite!) ... And I guess it was a unique selling point for a cookie back then? and they decided to use it as a slogan to sell their cookie?

I highly doubt you will be singled out for not licking your oreo, and no there would be no difference in flavor seeing as its the EXACT same cookie you're either biting or licking ... except, when you lick you use the tip of your tongue and that is where all the taste buds that are specialized for picking up "sweet" flavors are centralized? other then that no reason to lick... go ahead and take a chomp =)

I don't get it either.

Its fun. But I don't usually eat oreos, the "cream filling" is just shortning and sugar.

to savor..to eat slower and because you can...people often like to seperate to taste 2 different tastes..the creamy center and then the chocolate..as there are 2 flavors in the oreo cookie...i dunno why someone would find their own saliva disgusting..if its so disgusting how would u justify swallow it when ur mouth fills up with it when it waters.

Wise words, Emily.

hmm... maybe they are old men and like to see young kids lick cookies? LOL

there is no point, really. i just want my oreos to be licked. he he he

Licking them gets the cream out of the middle so I can dunk them easier which I love dunking them without the cream. Unless it's chocolate oreos then I dunk the whole cookie without licking.
