Here in India you get only two other variants. Orange and strawberry. There was a limited edition butterscotch that was awesome. But I only got it one time. Hope we get other flavors soon!
And THIS is why we need an oreo exchange program!1 -

Have not had an OREO in months but do think i'd prefer the Thins too...when eating them before wud always scrape out the centers, they were just sickly sweet (for me)....... have tossed the idea around of buying the "thins" but can't trust myself to have them around._dracarys_ wrote: »I actually prefer Oreo Thins.

I agree! I so want to taste the peanut butter ones! My sister is coming down to India from US next month. She needs to make some space for my oreos0 -
I tried double stuffed Oreos for the first time yesterday. Why have I been wasting my life eating single stuffed cookies when these things exist? Why did no-one tell me about this?0

LOL I was just thinking that. International postage would be wayyyyyyyyy more than the price of a package of the domestic flavors.
But, god, that butterscotch sounded good.

I happened to pass by the grocery aisle with the Oreos and saw the packages of Red Velvet Oreos. After reading this thread, I decided to try them. I don't know whether to thank you Carlos_421 or curse you! The cookies are amazing dipped in milk and the filling is delicious! I'm asking my son to lock them up so that I can have them in controlled amounts or I may not stop until the milk is all gone! YUM!0

This makes me very sad:
MILLARD COUNTY, Utah -- A semi tractor-trailer hauling Oreos and crackers went up in flames after a tire blow-out on Interstate 15 in Millard County Monday afternoon.
The truck driver was traveling in the Dog Valley at mile marker 138 when friction from the tire blowout ignited the fire, according to Utah Highway Patrol.
The fire closed one lane of southbound I-15 for more than hour. While the load was a total loss, there no reported injuries. [Don't the Oreos count?!?]

OMG for the love of all things Oreo.... you're killing me with your avatar... they don't sell those here... probably a good thing too. They look awesome I'm quite sure it had nothing to do with stumbling across this thread but when I was at the store (cough cough) a bit ago when I happened to be in front of the Oreo's... Nothing jumped out at me. I must have gone to a small store that had little selection. They didn't have anything other regular other than the thin ones. I've tried the Reese's and got so hooked on them... they seem to be gone for ever though... so I guess I can stop going to the meetings. Gawd those were good!
@Hearts_2015
LOL! They were so good! I will be buying another box, and hopefully will be able to keep it to one per day. The avi is because of this thread (of course). Also because of this thread, my Oreo consumption has increased dramatically (I hadn't had one in years, now I'm on my second pack of the thins, and ate the whole box of ice cream sandwiches). No regrets! I am beginning to suspect @Carlos_421 is a shill for Oreo.
Well, Nabisco is a publically traded company...
I got original thins a couple days ago for the first time and tried them. They are amazing. The perfect cookie to cream ratio (less cream, please). The huz who likes cream tried the megastuff, but says it is too much cream so he'll probably go back to doublestuff in the future.0 -

two cookies of 20 grams contain 13 grams of sugar. Honestly, I don't see anything yummy in here, and I know Oreos taste artificial and not very rich.
They do include the toxic ingredient sodium bicarbonate. You may be onto something.
Pleas enlighten me. Why is making soda toxic?
It's a running forum joke...some poor soul actually thought that kfc chicken was toxic because one of the ingredients was "sodium bicarbonate"
As for myself I apologize for not giving my daily Oreo updates as I'm sure everyone is on the edge of his or her seat. I am happy to report that my desk drawer has been restocked with a package of regular Oreos....the greatest packaged cookie of all time
I was on the edge of seat. Thank goodness that crisis was averted :bigsmile:Carlos_421 wrote: »And for my 2,000th post on this site:

Gonna have to contract that one out. I don't do crafty stuff. Lol0 -
I'm still shocked about the double stuff oreo calories so I had to look at the package when I went to the market today and it's not even the higher calorie oreos! It's the 140 calories for 2 oreos!
So those are next on my list when it's time to buy more cookies.0 -

Have you guys tried the cinnamon bun oreos? Got them the other day on a whim (those displays at the cash registers always get me) and they are amazinggg. Everyone in my suite loved them.
Cinnamon cookies with basically the same cream. So good and they fill a different sort of craving in a way, so you could really buy those and normal oreos and decide if you want chocolate or sweet cinnamon. Variety!

*blink*
I'm not even sure how long it's been since I had the original. Before my obsession started with all the limited edition flavors, I stuck to the bite size oreos because...quantity, bayyyyyyybe.
I guess I'll have to buy the original AND the double stuff oreos now.0 -

Oh shoot I think that was me that first noticed that. I was comparing double stuff to red velvet. No comparison for 160 cals... Double stuff FTW0 -
