So, Taptalk now says it doesn't like the IP address on my Windows PC and won't connect. It's fine on my tablet, wifi, same router. Anybody knows what gives? And BTW, on my PC CCF won't work unless I sign on every time, even when I request keeping me signed in. Doesn't happen on other devices. Maybe your PC doesn't like the cookies it gets. Everyone likes Oreos, but Hydrox aren't bad, either. Not everyone.

I can't eat Oreos since they switched from sugar to high fructose corn syrup, just doesn't taste right.

As a kid I used to like them, heck I used to LOVE them-- but I can't eat Oreos since an unfortunate bet I took in the 10th grade involving eating an entire package in under 10 minutes.
I won the bet (10 bucks in 1979 dollars), but lost my lunch in the end (shades of Cool Hand Luke). Haven't touched Oreos of any sort since 1979. I can't even eat ice cream with Oreo bits. It nauseates me.
I can eat my weight in boiled crayfish or raw oysters, two things that many people find repulsive, but I won't touch Oreos with a 10-foot pole. Weird.
I might be inclined to eat 50 eggs... No, wait. Forget that. I like eggs way to much to voluntarily nauseate myself with them.

I find those people repulsive. Where do you go oystering down your way?

There are many times over the last 60 years we’ve see Ben Grimm with a beer or a sub. I wonder though does he every really need to eat or is it like Superman where at times he simply eats because that’s what you do when it’s lunch time on earth? If he does truly need to eat how long can he go without food or water? I do understand such a thing is at the whim of the writer but I find it hard to believe that only his skin has been turned to rock but his insides are just normal human parts with maybe some enlargements to help with blood flow etc.

How many beers can Ben Grimm drink before he gets drunk? Could he outdrink Andre the Giant?

And evidence from various stories suggests he needs more food and drink than you or I to power that 800-pound boulder he calls his body.
Cei-U! I summon the super-sized Happy Meal!

This is the best place in my neck of the woods. Constantly rotating oyster menu, flown in live from all over. On any given day they'll have a variety of at least 1/2 dozen different origins-- Mystic CT, St. Johns, B.C., the Virginia shoals, Miscou Bay, etc, even warmer gulf areas, as well as the occasional sources from France and UK. In a landlocked town like Nashville, it's pricier than most coastal regions, but they do maintain a good variety. For the adventurous, they'll even allow patrons to shuck their own if they wish (I don't usually do this unless it's a particularly expensive variety).
At the Southern, oysters are much more than an afterthought. Pair a dozen of them with the house specialty appetizer of smoked boiled eggs, and I could easily founder myself.

I mostly only like Oreos when they're crumpled up in ice cream.. though some of the weird kinds are good... though once you substitute peanut butter for the filling and cover them with chocolate, are they really still an Oreo?
I definitely was thinking about food when I went through some of the story for my Tony Stark timeline project. Like, some of those battles seem to go on for hours.. when do you grab a water? How long WAS he hanging on a spinny disk in the Mandarin's castle? Does the suit have a catheter? Inquiring minds want to know.
