    Not an Oreo (nor any kind of pre-packaged cookie), but a co-worker brought in these homemade cookies today, and it felt like a good reason to bump this awesome thread.

    Those look delicious.

    That looks amazing.

    On an Oreo related note:
    Workout was late last night so post workout nutrition doubled as a bedtime snack. What did I have, you ask?

    1 scoop whey (in water to save calories for Oreos)
    3 cups 2% milk (casein for midnight muscle building)
    6 original Oreos

    Booyah!!!

    Honestly these are my favorite packaged cookies

    But of course they're only available in some specific stores in France, so it probably doesn't count.

    But I still like Pepperidge Farm more than Oreos :p

    Those look about as exciting as a bran muffin.

    Seeing this gives me the feeling maybe some kid in a sweat shop in China had the job of crushing up Oreos to make these. And those may not be raisins in there. :) lol

    And about 1/2 as tasty...

    You have no idea what you're missing... pure buttery goodness... of course the big ones are like 90 calories each *sigh*

    Please tell me this is not so? I went to my grocery store yesterday and the tag for the cinnamon bun ones where gone :( I got like the last package. I checked Walmart's website and it says no longer sold. I am now very sad.

    That's a compliment. They used to hand these out at church when I was a kid (because presumably cookies with chocolate were too decadent?) Anyway they taste like really sweet cardboard.

    What? I thought those weren't supposed to be limited edition. And this is why I buy 2 packages of any oreos I want to try instead of just the one...sheesh.

    Dinner rolls are supposed to be buttery.
    Cookies are supposed to be sweet and either chocolatey or peanut buttery. Sometimes both.

    I feel your pain. I stopped at Target after working out hoping to get some peanut butter ones based on the comments here only to find none. They did however have cinnamon bun ones. I went for the plain because ....why mess with perfection?

    Well so far seems like they are not listed on the Oreo website either, not sure if limited or what. Going to check Walmart for them tomorrow. Could be my store just stopped carrying, hope that is all.
