The oreo was delicious as you’d expect. The brownie bite was like hot brownie batter coated in pancake, powdered sugar and caramel sauce. I will absolutely do that again.

Mistakes were made, but it’s nothing tums and laying down can’t fix.

    I played music in high school*, and on a few occasions I went to the all-state solo and ensemble contest. My senior year, I had one solo and one trio. The other 2 guys in the trio also brought a solo to the contest. After your performance, the judges would give you a score from 1 (awesome) to 5 (you wasted your time coming here).

    Some college students, probably a frat, would sell deep fried oreos on campus during this contest. My trio made a pact that we’d have to eat as many oreos as the combined total of our solo+trio scores.

    1 deep fried oreo is a treat. 2 is an indulgent treat. 3 is questionable. 4 is a bad move. So on and so on. It goes beyond diminishing returns and gets further and further negative with each one. So that was our motivation to perform well.

    *I still do, but I used to, too

      That’s brutal haha. The fried brownie bites went down like 2-3 fries oreos.

      What’s the most you or anyone in the trio had to eat? And what instrument do you play?

        I was bassoon + 2 oboes in the trio. The trio got a 1, my solo got a 2. One of the oboes got a 1 any the other got a 3 for their solos, so we had 2/3/4 oreos.
