the pineapple jam really gave a nice addictive contrast to the overall sweetness of the pastry

They are not the best sandwich cookie, but they are the 'default.' They're also 113 years old this year.

The original variant was the 'Double Stuf' (heh), with additional filling (heh heh).

Since 2004, there have been a number of other variants with different flavors of wafers and/or filling. (These are not true Oreos.)

Contrary to popular belief common sense, one serving of Oreos is a single row from a package. Hence, a 'family size' package is three servings.

The best part of the Oreo is the cookie. Double stuff is for chumps.

We're down to about two weeks - GO VOTE!

pecan-pie-mc-2x1-240815.jpg

Originating in the American South, and gaining significant popularity only in the mid 20th Century, this is a fairly recent addition to the dessert table for US Thanksgiving.

The filling tends to be an absurdly heavy, sweet custard; one slice is plenty. Best served with a bit of fresh whipped cream, or (if hot) a small scoop of vanilla ice cream. Protip: DON'T SKIMP ON THE PECANS.

Kudos to MawMaw for coming through with the Q dessert. :salute:

GO VOTE FOR SONGS

19 people have voted for at least 1 Group A song, but only 7 have voted in group H. Let's get those later group numbers up!

This is kind of a throwback you don't see much anymore, and a bit late for the Christmas season with which it is normally associated, but....
peppermint_ribbon_candy_box_-_6_count.jpg

I can remember seeing this at various 'old people' houses growing up in the '80's and early '90's, and I always wanted to eat it, and my mother would never let me (fat kid problems).

Turns out this was because most of that candy was used as decoration because no one ever ate it, so at that point it was sugar that probably went back into the '60's or so.

Also turns out that making this stuff is deceptively hard to automate, and it wasn't until after WWII that someone worked out how to do most of the work automatically, so despite being a very simple form of candy, this was something of a delicacy for a long time.
