Road Double Stuffed With Oreos

By Dan Filler

Oh the horror!  Folks are stumbling into work today, in Morris, Illinois, after an Oreo truck driver fell asleep at the wheel.  The vehicle rolled over, spilling 28,000 pounds of the double stuffed treats onto I-80.  Don't be surpised if we see a short-term spike in Oreo prices, as parents scramble  to meet their children's dessert needs.  This only underscores the necessity of developing alternative sources of sweets, such as parfait,  fruitcake, and of course spotted dick. 

Photo: definitely not Oreos, no matter what the package says.  Wish they had spilled onto the highway.
