Oreos (sandwich cookies) are often dunked in milk, and there’s a joke about that. “The closest that I’ve gotten to murder: Holding Oreos under the milk until the bubbles stop” (or “The closest I’ve come to murder is holding Oreos under the milk until the bubbles stop”) is a saying that has been printed on many images.

“Oreos are like people, you hold ‘em under ‘til the bubbles stop 😃” was posted on Facebook by Dottie Phillips on August 10, 2010. “closest i’ve gotten to murder is holding oreos under the milk until the bubbles stop” was posted on X/Twitter by 8MTS on September 13, 2011. “The closest that I’ve gotten to murder: Holding Oreos under the milk until the bubbles stop…” was posted on X/Twitter by Lizbeth Luna on March 27, 2012. “The closest I’ve come to murder is holding Oreos under the milk until the bubbles stop” was posted on X/Twitter by Oxygen Thief on October 24, 2012.

“When I dunk my cookies in my milk, I think of you (and hold them under until the bubbles stop)” is a related saying.

Wikipedia: Oreo
Oreo (/ˈɔːrioʊ/; stylized in all caps) is a brand of sandwich cookie consisting of two cocoa biscuits or cookie pieces with a sweet fondant filling. It was introduced by Nabisco on March 6, 1912, and through a series of corporate acquisitions, mergers, and splits, both Nabisco and the Oreo brand have been owned by Mondelez International since 2012. Oreo cookies are available in over one hundred countries.

Today I was dipping my Oreos in milk. I always wait for the bubbles to stop coming up before I eat them. Then I realized I was essentially drowning the Oreos. I felt bad and stopped dipping them in milk.
