Ode to Little Debbie and Her Oatmeal crème Pies

OpenOffice keeps correcting “creme” for some reason. Nevermind. We stopped at a Safeway the other night to buy some milk. All this time I've been looking for Oatmeal crème Pies. I don't know why really, but I wanted them. Not only did the Safeway have said pies, they had them in bulk and on sale. I ended up buying two “Big Packs” for $6 and change. That's 24 count in total weighing in at 4 lbs. Last night, as well as finishing my first box I also read the Nutritional Facts for my first time ever. Under calories it read “330”. Okay I thought, so a serving must be 2-3 cookie things. Nope. Thats for one. One delicious crème filled piece of heaven is 330 calories. Before that I had already had 2 and was working on my third I had pretty much eaten my recommended calorie amount in less than half an hour. Besides having some indigestion and very strange dreams I woke figuring I had avoided any serious side effects of consumption. I was wrong. Terribly, horribly wrong. I went outside to use the bathroom when I picked up a weird, yet familiar scent. It was that of oatmeal. I'm no expert on anatomy or bodily functions but either I'm going insane or my sweat smelled like the cookies. Perhaps it's a sign I should stay away from them but the unopened 12 pack sitting in the back of the Quest says otherwise.
