furtech*pointless anecdote warning*
So I was eating some Oreos when I actually -look- at a cookie that felt weird (in a braille-sort of way): instead of the age-old logo, there is a large, bas-relief "L". Hmmm. I look at the package: "Win $$$ if you spell "MILK"! I save the cookie. Over the next couple of days, I find "M" and "I". I'm vaguely horrified that I've eaten the all-valuable "K" (I was 3/4 through the package when I found that first "L"). Yet, now that all I have left are the letter cookies, I can't bring myself to eat them (hope blooms eternal). I really want them now, too. So I go online and manage to find more details and in TEENY print, they mention that winning packages will spell MILK *and* have a winning certificate enclosed win. D'oh! So I ate the cookies and shook my fist in rage at Nabisco for their stupid contest and empty calories. The end.
