SNACK TIME: Biggest oreo ever, Buy booze on Sunday, At-war eats, Huntin' for squirrel, and the Burger ban

- What, the Double Stuf wasn't enough for you cookie monsters? Look at this baby: the TRIPLE DOUBLE OREO, with a layer of classic cream over a layer of chocolate cream, said to be released this summer. I'm waiting for a Quadruple Triple Neapolitan Oreo, with an added layer of strawberry cream. Are you reading, Nabisco? ($$$$$)

- The archaic reign of PLCB over the way we buy our booze may be fading - with a particular permit, probably at quite a cost, all Pennsylvania beer distributors could be able to stock wine and liquor, if the bill is passed. DelCo Times reports the hopeful logistics.

- Fewer troops in Iraq means less Burger King (and other brands of familiar fast food) stands to feed them. Esquire explains the effect on general morale these comfort foods have for soldiers at war, among other anecdotes and examples of what and how they eat.

- Eatocracy wants you to know why you should eat squirrel, cough, the "chicken of the trees."

- Good news that PA might loosen its hold on us, but what's up with North Carolina? Illegal to order your burger rare or medium rare? Because their idea of safe differs greatly between ground beef and a steak, ordering the latter bloody is still a go.
