...and that's why I keep a pack of oreos.

Totally as a bear distraction and not a self-inflation device...

No joke, this happened to me and my sisters and their families when we had a vacation in Durango. Window in the basement was left slightly cracked, we left and came back to a bear in the house. The bear had only eaten one thing, the Oreos. I have never thought that was weird until this post.

"This is why we chose the bear. I don't know what to tell you." -response from a woman when shown the article

Did the onion started firing its news reporters or something?

Did the bear separate the cookies and teeth-scrape the icing first?

I take it back - unless you're an Oreo the beer might be safer

Bears only want one thing and it's fucking disgusting

Soon it'll be the bear Oreo mafia.

"You know it makes me so happy when I go into a home and there are Oreos just sitting right there on the counter. Everyone should always have Oreos on the counter. We don't have to go looking around. It'd be a shame if your place got trashed just because we couldn't find any Oreos. Nobody wants that."

It’s also cased the joint.

Funny and true.
