You know you are a grown up when you start requesting the middle pieces from the sheet cake. And instead of scraping off the huge rose made of frosting so you can eat it, you scrape it off to the side of the plate so you don't get sick.

I can only eat one or two Oreos before I get sick of them, even if I have milk to dip them in. That makes sense to me because I've never found Oreo cookies to be optimal dipping cookies. Even cookies and cream ice cream is tough for me to stomach.

Chips Ahoy are ideal for dipping (in milk or fruit punch) but not so great by themselves due to the mouth-drying factor. But I can eat more of them than Oreos even if there isn't a dipping substance around.

I used to eat Cheez Its by the handful. Now I'm lucky if I can eat half a handfull before I'm overwhelmed with cheddary salt sickness.

I'm sure there are other foods I've "outgrown" but I don't eat them anymore so it is hard to remember.
