Sometimes, the most basic decisions are made with a coin toss or an age-old game of rock, paper, scissors.

And sometimes, they’re made by riding down a giant Oreo cookie slide.

The three-story, five-lane slide is coming to Atlanta as part of Oreo’s three-city “What’s Your Stuf?” campaign, where cookie lovers will answer the question: What is the perfect Oreo cookie-to-creme ratio?

Residents will make their choice by sliding down either of the five lanes named for cookies of varying thickness: OREO Thins, OREO Original, OREO Double Stuf, OREO Mega Stuf, or OREO Most Stuf.

The slide will be at Atlantic Station from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday, Feb. 28 and from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 29.

Fans can also vote online for their favorite cookie-to-creme ratio now through March 15 at www.whatsyourstuf.com for a chance to win $100,000 and other prizes.
