They already came out with those. I don't know what they're called but they have a chocolate center.
And no, I won't be eating those either.

In a way, yes. But this is also partly the fault of both parents working. Then you tell the kids to stay inside with the doors locked when they get home from school because you don't want them playing outside without anybody watching.

Try Burger King fries. They changed theirs a few years ago and added some sort of coating that gives them a really good flavor and they are usually crispy. I think the coating must have salt in it too because you rarely need to salt them.
Disgusting.... They spray on powdered starch and sugar to make the outside crispy once the frozen potatos are thrown into who knows how old of oil.
Run, do not walk, to your nearest wal-mart, and buy a "Fry Daddy," then go to the grocery store (unless you live near Super Walmart!) and buy some potato and peanut oil.
Slice however you like (food processor is handy) and deep fry.
You will never want for fast food fries again.

Got one, tried it, didn't like the flavor of real ones. I like my fake potatos.

True. We were didn't have to worry about that stuff. My mom worked when we were kids (my mother was a single mother - Divorced) and we came come before she did but we could play outside or in the park without her worrying. You are rigth, times were different then. I really feel sorry for kids nowadays. I wish things could be different for them. :-(

But I still think the company intentionally keeps Diet Coke tasting more like chemicals than Classic Coke in order to absolutely insure the flagship brand reigns supreme over their arch-enemy Pepsi.You may be right about that. If so, I guess they figure that being #1 is more important than total sales. Because, I gotta believe there are fewer diet-soda consumers who will drink a Classic Coke once in a while, than there are those of us who will never drink a "fat" soda and thus buy NO Coke products (that's me). I'd buy lots of Diet Classic Coke if they made it. But, if they're so worried that it would cannibalize Coke sales, scr*w 'em. :O)
Along the same lines, I wonder why Pepsi One never really took off. It does taste more like regular Pepsi, though still not quite right.
I thought so, too. But, in my experience, its shelf life was severely limited and, when it got old, it really tasted horrible. Really horrible. I wonder if that killed it.
the diet soft drink that tastes most like the original is Diet Dr. Pepper.
Agreed.

You are correct. Smaller servings always cost more- more packaging and more profit.

A "healthy" cookie does taste awful. When I developed diabetes I tried making many "non-fat, non-sugar" treats. Forget it. There is no such thing. They are God-awful. So I just stopped eating "healthy" cookies, etc. Maybe three times a year I do eat a couple of Oreos and enjoy them. When I test my sugar after the Oreos, it's a little high. But when I eat steak for dinner, the next morning my glucose monitor flashes an alarm because the reading is so high. And nobody seems to be going after the beef industry -yet. Where will it all end?

Now I'm mad. I eat Double Stuff Oreos and I am not fat. So, guess I'll change brands to Famous Amos but will miss the extra filling.
They are discriminating against thin peoples' right to eat what they want. If I were thin, gay and black, I'd say that this needs to go all the way up to that dandy Supreme Court. Cookies are about their speed these days since most of the USSC has dementia.

Remember how long "New Coke" lasted after they received thousands of complaints from Coca Cola Classic consumers (addicts)?
I say if they ruin Oreos, we boycott them and call them INCESSANTLY to complain.
Since when do TRIAL LAWYERS get to tell me what I can snack on? Is it any wonder President Bush and his brother dislike trial lawyers? ME TOO!!! This could be hugh. Seriesly.

You got that right. I wonder how you "reformulate" a chocolate cookie with creamy filling dipped in fudge to make it more healthful. Tofu and carob. Limit - one per customer.

My mother in law has some *great* sugar free recipes she uses to bake cakes for a few diabetic friends of hers. If you are interested, next time I visit her I can copy a few of the better ones for you and freepmail them to you. Just freepmail me if you want me to do it. She lives about 4 hours away so it may be a month or so before my next visit but I don't mind getting a few for you if you want them. She's a great cook and has many many many books of recipes. She can point out the ones for me that actually taste good.
