Science proves what we already know...

- Red hardtail 26" aluminum mountain bike, Bontrager Evoke WSD saddle

All this has served to do is remind me that I have cookies-and-cream ice cream in my freezer.
At least I don't leave slime trails.

Saving for the next one...
What this tells me is that Oreos taste better than rice cakes. I already knew that
I'm not seeing the parallel to the drugs, however... Science is drawing some very sketchy conclusions here, IMO.

Speed comes from what you put behind you. - Judi Ketteler
Agree. Bedroom activity activates pleasure centers in the brain too. For good reason.
Here's a counterpoint.
I'm not saying that Oreos are the way to good health, but I can buy a package without developing a chemical dependency.

Perhaps true for you, but not everyone is capable of avoiding that dependency. Plenty of people are addicted to 'food like substances' ...just like there are people addicted to sex. I don't think there is anything particularly special about an Oreo, but as Oak mentioned, junk food, by it's very nature, is designed to create 'users' as opposed to consumers.

And the counterpoint (well made, I think):
No, Oreos aren't as addictive as Cocaine

However, junk food could be an addiction. I know people addicted to food. I've never met anyone that interested in Oreos though. As a side note, there are sex addicts as well. I said all that to say I do see the parallel. Some drugs are psychologically addicting and some are physically addicting.
