My father-in-law is Dr. Obesity -- regularly interviewed on issues
pertaining to lipids -- and was asked by one reporter if he ate Snackwells.
Which, he was told, were the number-one selling cookie in the nation. He
doesn't; didn't know what they were and had no idea -- the real reason
behind asking him if he ate the sugar-laden bon-bons -- why they were the
best selling cookie in the country. Trouble is, he isn't obese and never
was; doesn't snack with compulsion and has a particular taste for sweet
things that grow on trees (or bushes, or vines).

Well, if was funny in telling the first time around. The short answer is:
Snackwell? What's that? I still eat butter.

But if you guys have been filling your drawers with snacks, wouldn't it make
sense to want to have more drawers within which to put snacks?

Oh...did you just discover Snackwells?  Twice the sugar and none of the fat?
