I found a box of unopened Famous Amos packaged cookies downstairs...

I tried one. They taste pretty okay. Copyright says 2004.

Since they weren't opened, they don't taste nearly as stale as other cookies (certainly not hard).

That's either really awesome or really bad...

1. They always taste stale, even when new

Other than the fact that Amos is from here, I don't see the point to them.

4. Well, they say twinkies can last about 20 yrs on the shelf

so I would think they'd be ok.

6. They were okay...

I just had a few before I got sick of 'em.

Not big into packaged cookies, though. I like 'em fresh out of the oven!
