Filed Under Yummmmm: Belgian Chocolate Covered Oreos

Fatting Out in Style. If the deep-friend Twinkie lives in trailer parks and county fairs, then these Belgian Chocolate covered Oreos from Red Envelope resides in a perfectly picturesque home in the Hamptons. With its beautiful jewel-toned wrappers and glass canisters, these cookies will be the death of us and our winter diet plan.

 
 

You see, we would reason to ourselves that ordering one of these for ourselves will brighten up our living room, and then every time we'd pass by, we'd have to eat one. It's the same philosophy as bringing treats to work: everyone snacks! It's Office Law.

Order either the large (100 cookies! Yay!) or small canister (34 cookies! Boo.) at Red Envelope.

"deep-friend Twinkie lives in trailer parks and county fairs" I could bet this article could've been written w/out that part. It's kind of elitist and just plain mean; and from what I've read, you're not even CLOSE to being rich, so... I'm pretty sure you could do w/out fixating stereotypes.

Actually, DJLuckyOnline: The first time I've ever seen and tasted a deep-fried Twinkie was at a county fair adjacent to a trailer park of vintage Airstreams that were open to the public. And if you really want to get technical, the deep-fried twinkie gained popularity because the inventors started selling them at county fairs. My intent with that line was simply this: both these items are decadent and will do damage to our hips, but they're on either ends of the spectrum in terms of presentation.

As for the personal jab, I wasn't aware that my income was an underlying theme in any of my posts.
