Some idiot fathead California lawyer wants to ban Oreos because they contain trans-fat.
Hey, mister – I think I can speak for the Oreo-eating public in general when I say this – don’t you have anything better to do with your time? I appreciate that you’re “looking out” for the public in your own way, but people have been eating Oreos since the the early part of the 20th Century. I’ve never heard of even one instance of “death by Oreo”.
Have you considered a boycott? Or perhaps a letter writing campaign to Kraft Foods? Maybe a nice bumper sticker? No, of course not. You’re a LAWYER. In CALIFORNIA. You sue more people before 9am than most of us do the rest of our lives. Do us all a favor and find a hobby. Something that doesn’t involve a courtroom.
Jesus F’in Christ! No one is shoving the Oreo cookies down his throat!!! At least with the lawsuits about tobacco there is some proof that it’s addictive. This is just insane. And if this guy were to win, he’d probably be the most hated man in California. You want money because Kraft “made you eat trans-fats without you knowing about it?” Fine. Go fight your little war and try to get money out of them. But taking them away from EVERYONE? Doesn’t this seem as stupid as the pro-choice vs. pro-life discussion? If you don’t want to eat Oreos, DON’T EAT THEM! Goddamn!
OOh! I think they should just put a label on it, and then take notice of the three people that actually stop eating them because of their new, enlightened state.
what are fake oreos called?
Hydrox. Or any store brand. Essentially, anything non-Nabisco.
