    Whenever I have time to kill, I come back to this thread. It's amazing, and makes me sad there are no Oreo's in my house right now.

    Carlos_421, A digestive is a biscuit we have in the UK, chocolate ones have thin layer of chocolate on top. They are called digestives as when first invented were thought to aid digestion.

    Sounds more like you had to convince people to eat them if you ask me...lol

    The way you describe them, I'm picturing something like this:

    which are quite good...but certainly not nearly as good as Oreos...

    I've been a huge Oreo fan all my life, but recently somebody suggested I try the Back To Nature copy, and I was blown away. Not quite as sweet, with a richer chocolate flavor. Converted. I'll blow my entire daily carb allowance and eat nothing but chicken breast for the rest of the day to binge on these once in a while.

    I love an Oreo, but I'll take a Nutter Butter over an Oreo any time.

    I'm less than a fan of their stupid anti-science anti-GMO advertising malarkey, but unfortunately it comes with the territory these days.

    The cookies are dope though, especially if you prefer OG oreos over double-stuffs, which I agree with you on.

    I saw them and didn't pull the trigger. But all I need to persuade me to buy another package of Oreos is one person's endorsement, so PBJ Oreos just went on the shopping list!

    @kimny72 - they are absolutely delicious. I'm considering buying a bunch and stockpiling them away before they go out.

    I traded with someone online for the pbj with Blueberry pie. Well worth it. One pack is staying in the freezer. Just picked up apple Pie and they are legit. Taste just like apple pie.

    Interesting. I found the PB&J oreos last night and I was SO excited, but I was disappointed. I LOVE the peanut butter oreos, but these don't taste like peanut butter at all. They're mostly just tangy, from the "J" flavor, I guess.

    Here's the one good thing - this may be the first bag of oreos that the kids don't eat. I at least have them ALL to myself!

    They're the BEST. There's a local bagel place near my job that has a cream cheese flavor of the week and next week's flavor is Oreo cream cheese. I'm TOO excited.

    Ok, so reading another post about graham crackers and having no idea what they were, seems very similar to the uk digestive biscuit ....... this coated in plain chocolate = delicious.

    Found the apple pie Oreos in Canada at Superstore and Walmart. I thought they were good but my husband hated them, and he loves apple pie.

    If it hasn't been said already the birthday cake ones are awesome. More importantly though, it's almost pumpkin spice oreo time! :p<3

    I'm thinking of buying some Talenti Caramel Apple Pie Gelato to go along with the new Oreos.

    can't wait to try the apple pie oreos, but Halloween oreos are the BEST. something about that orange filling, idk.

    I had a specialty Oreo cake batter cream cheese today from my local bagel shop and almost passed out. Oreos for every win, ever.

    Can't say I've ever had the Halloween Oreos. Does the cream taste that different from regular Oreos?

    Pass along the captain killjoy hat for my turn to speak, if you please. While I have them now and then, I am not their biggest fan. Before Oreos became a thing Favori's were the most loved sandwich cookies in my country (view image below). I guess I loved that beautiful cacao flavour from the cookie in combination with the lovely vanilla filling. Sadly I don't get the same enthusiasm when I eat Oreos, I feel that there is too much sugar in them and not enough flavour. Plus my teeth always hurt after I eat them. I guess Favori's will remain my favourites (pun intended). Sadly since Oreos became popular I don't see the Favori's that much on the shelves anymore.

    I agree that Halloween Oreos are the best! I don't really think they taste any different, but for whatever reason I like the orange filling more.

    Also, tried the Apple Pie Oreos and was not a fan.

    I'm just mad that Oreo O's have been back since July and no one told me.

    I agree with the op. Oreos are already perfection, the other flavors are extremely unnecessary.

    Isn't this something you should have known instinctively? You *are* the king of the oreos, you know!

    (I actually had to walk my online only ordering *kitten* into a Walmart a couple times to find them.)
