some stupid questions

[themegaloo]

Why is the process of eating cookies & milk so messy? Or is it just me that absolutely insists on dunking the entire cookie in the milk and letting it get all soft before eating, thus meaning my fingers end up drenched in milk. Which means it drips and I have to cart the glass of milk back and forth to my face so that it doesn't DRIP EVERYWHERE

Mm. I need some oreos...

I definitely have the same problem with cookies+milk. Pretty much have to remember to snag a napkin so that I can keep wiping off my fingers.

But the napkin then wastes cookie crumbs...It's a terrible dilemma. Maybe I should start using tongs....

[daluci]

But will the tongs result in a broken cookie that falls to the bottom of the glass? How have we advanced this far as a civilization without a proper answer to how to have cookies and milk without a mess and/or cookie wasting?

If the cookie breaks into the glass you still get it in the end, though a bit OVERLY soggy. But it does rather negate the instant gratification of the whole thing.

Perhaps a little mini-strainer? Much like for loose-leaf tea but. For cookies in milk.
