Review: Most Stuf Oreo & Hi! (aka Update: 389 Days Later)
JFG Nation, hi.
*pause*
You know, I always wondered how I’d begin my first post in over a year, and I guess that’s the answer: “Hi.” How anti-climatic.
But yes, HI. Hi, JFG Nation. It has been a long. Long. Long. Long. Time. A long time since I’ve written a post. A long time since I’ve edited a photo. A long time since I really engaged in social media. My IG game is way down, and I can’t remember when I myself even looked at this website. It’s been a while, to say the least. Editing the photos below, I felt like a novice. This stuff used to be second nature to me. This time around? It took me forever to remember the password to this site. Not kidding.
Over the past year, I thought about what I might say in this post. The long rambling apology for being away for so long. The philosophical thoughts about blogging, food, sports, parenting, and life itself. The majestic way I’d re-enter the realm of food writing, announcing my triumphant return!
There’s only one problem: this ISN’T my triumphant return.
No; please consider this a one-off – a drop of rain that makes you look up, wondering where that came from. For new readers (if any, at this point), I used to run this website meticulously for years and years and years. Read this for a brief history. Every day, a new snack or food or something. Every day, a random thought, a random rant. I was part of a podcast, then I wasn’t; I would sample new foods at restaurants and company factories, then I didn’t; I used to go the Summer Fancy Food Show, then I…no, I still went to that this year. It was delicious.
So what happened? Well, JFBaby happened. And now the only FOMO I get is baby-related. I used to take pictures of food everywhere I went. Now I have literal THOUSANDS of baby snapshots. It happened, everyone. I was assimilated.
So yes, maybe I’ll drop off the face of the Earth again after this post. Maybe I’ll come back in a few months. Maybe I’ll HEY PUT DOWN THAT BOTTLE! *snaps fingers* HEY! HEY! PUT IT DOWN…..DON’T THROW IT. DON*. Sigh. I’ll be right back.
Today’s junk food: Most Stuf Oreo!!
So back in June, I IG-ed/Tweet-ed this:
The truth is, that random packaging promo wasn’t the only thing I had. I also had THE COOKIE ITSELF:
Yep, Santa was good to me, and an anonymous source let me try one of these prototypes back in June. Wait, this angle doesn’t do it justice…
Neither does this angle…
THERE we go. Almost 4x the creme, people. FOUR X! THAT’S….A LOT OF CREME.
(Btw, yes, I know – I DO NOT OWN AN IPHONE X. Otherwise I’d be able to get this cookie photo in portrait mode, right? Right. SOMEONE BUY ME AN IPHONE X.)
This photo is presented in case you’re wondering how much creme we’re talking about here. The cookie sat almost 3/4-inch thick. The creme itself took up between 5/16 and 6/16 of an inch. This was an absurd amount of creme.
Twisting the top off was like unscrewing a jar of creme. It almost looked like a mistake. A GLORIOUS SWEET MISTAKE.
This is a knife. This is a knife with the creme scraped off onto the tip. I could’ve mortared up the brick on the outside of my house with this stuff.
The consistency of the creme? Exactly the same are regular Oreo creme – just lots more of it. Like Double Stuff, like Mega Stuff – this just had MORE STUF. How’d it taste? DAMN SWEET. This isn’t rocket science, peeps – this is just a cookie with a WHOLE LOT MORE SUGARY GOODNESS.
Did I like it? Sure, the way that I liked eating sugar cubes straight from the box back in high school. Sometimes sugar JUST TASTES GOOD. And this cookie scratches that itch well. My info says these come out in January 2019. Get ready.
Alright – that’s it. It was nice to interact with you again, JFG Nation. For everyone who left kind messages about missing this blog: I do too, and thank you. And to those who were glad I was gone, well: sucks to your assmar.
Sincerely,
The JFG

We’ll be waiting for MORE STUF from you!
Aw, it’s nice to see a post! While I love my online content, it’s always great to see creators living real lives outside of the internet. Enjoy the babee!
I miss your context!!! Hope everything is good with you. Would love to see more pic of JFB.
Hey glad to see a post from you again! Hope you come back and do it from time to time. As a parent, I get it. You have to take care of the things that are most important. Family is #1. Thanks for doing the dad thing and occasionally coming back and doing the junk food thing.
I want Oreos without the cookies, please. Just package the insides individually. I know they can do it and I know there’s a market for it.
Great to see you posting! My husband and I really miss the Nosh show. We stop by here to check your twitter to see what you’re up to–so keep twittering! Perhaps you can selectively post your food related tweets to JFG to keep it fresh? Just a thought.
Thank you for gracing us with an Oreo post, a glimpse of fatherhood, JFBaby causing trouble, and your sense of humor through it all.
I remember a time when the JFG refused to answer (or even read) emails that started with “Hi.” The times they are a-changin’…
So great to see a post for you! I totally understand how you get sucked into the black hole of kids. I have three. I have missed your posts. I really enjoyed reading about this new Oreo. I had no clue it was on the horizon out there. Even if this is simply a “one time” post,I was happy you remembered all of your faithful readers! Wishing you all the best on your family endeavors!
On a off chance, I checked this blog. Welcome, sort of, back. Hope you maybe will just do one post a week. JFFridays? Gotta get JFBaby introduced to JF, yes? So just do that part ‘off screen’ and show us the adult side.
