    Trip report: the key lime Oreos are amazing.

    I hate normal Oreos and I'm generally not fond of sweets, but Key Lime pie can be Kryptonite to me. The Key Lime Oreos might actually be dangerous for me. LOL

    They have a graham cracker cookie with key lime filling. It's pretty good.

    I actually tried key lime pie for the first time the other day (it was a trader joe's sample) and now I REALLY need the key lime pie oreos in my life but no joy in the stores I go to (yet!). Where'd you find them?

    I refuse to order off amazon. The prices are outrageous.

    I found them at Shop Rite.

    I don't think we have a Shop Rite equivalent in California...

    I found them in a Safeway in Arizona. I'm from California, too, and haven't seen them there, but maybe a Vons or Safeway.

    It's possible they haven't made their way here yet so I'll keep checking all my usual places....Vons/Ralphs/Target/Walmart online. :)

    Finally tried the Reese's PB Cup Oreos yesterday.
    Not bad. I put them just below the brownie batter. Definitely better than the straight peanut butter Oreos.

    I'm going to have to stop you there, little homie. Peanut Butter Creme is better than Reese's Peanut Butter Oreos. If you want to fight , I'm ready.

    You're pretty scrappy for a little green frog with a bewildered look on your face! :laugh:

    @Carlos_421 35 pages on Oreos, well played, sir!

    I've had a lot of luck with my local walmart.

    Plain normal oreos are the BEST. Having said that...the mint ones are amazing (I like the mint/chocolate combo). The pumpkin spice ones in the fall are yummy and the coconut ones are too. The peanut butter ones are yummy and I just this week had the s'mores---delicious. But then I never met a cookie I didn't like--of any kind!!!

    Mega Stuf Oreos have too much filling. They're almost not enjoyable.

    Gotta have the right ratio of cream to cookie though.

    or more likely, that I am a bit classier when it comes to biscuits.....

    You probably don't even know what it is to soak an Oreo in milk until it no longer floats and then squish it between your tongue and the roof of your mouth.

    Stop. He's better off not knowing what he's missing out on in life.

    I've only seen Key Lime Oreos once or twice and they disappeared of the shelves before I ever got to try them. They're my white whale that I'm obsessively trying to track down.

    Blueberry Oreos are only available at Target, is what I just read. I'm anxious to try those as well.

    Yeah I saw them when I was at Target. I find it weird that Target gets dibs on such weird flavored Oreo's.

    I haven't tries those yet, still have the blueberry, fruity crisps, chocolate thins, AND choco chip to try, but the Great Value version of these were awful.

    Candy corn and Swedish Fish according to Junk Banter.

    I will try both. Candy corn because i love the stuff and Fish out of morbid curiosity.

    *runs up and hugs the thread* I've missed you sooooooooooo much!!

    I might try the candy corn oreos but no on the swedish fish. I was never into those. I still have the choco chip, lemon thins, and chocolate thins to try but I'm still making my way through all those girl scout cookies.

    I'm sorry, but the original Oreo is perfection, and when dipped in 2% milk it's a religious experience. You simply can't improve them.

    I agree. For me, the Double Stuf is just too much...stuff. The balance is off.


    Someone brought in the blueberry Oreos to work a few weeks ago. While they were passable and a completely edible cookie, they just weren't my kind of Oreo. I would never touch a Fruity Crisp one.
    I am all in on the Red Velvets and the mint ones, though.

    As a very good baker, I'm all about the homemade cookie. For me, nothing compares to a warm, chewy chocolate chunk cookie.

    Fruity crisp are probably my favorite of the year. I was never into red velvet or plain mint. Oreo thin mints are a whole other story. :wink:

    Yep. I like to hold my oreos down into the milk until they stop breathing, then devour, devour, devour. No surrender for the oreo.

    I tried the lemon ones, and really liked them. I know, I'm super slow on the uptake. LOL

    Candy corn and pumpkin spice oreos at Target. I bought a couple packages of the candy corn ones but haven't tried them yet. I also finally tried the lemon thins and they're ok...They don't beat the golden or normal oreo thins tho.

    From an UK prospective all types of Oreo's are gross! Chocolate Hob Nobs all day long for me
