    The last two I've found, peanut butter pie, and rocky road, are the bomb.

    Oooooh, haven't looked for rocky road yet! I agree, those peanut butter pie ones are really yummy :heart:

    Do they taste anything like Nutter Butters? This might be an Oreo flavor I could get behind!

    Sadly, I have never had a Nutter Butter :cry: . The peanut butter pie oreo is a graham flavored cookie, and the filling is half pb and half chocolate.

    Heathen! (Neither have I)

    Unfortunately, while I love to try new foods in general, I tend to stick to the old familiars when it comes to the cookie aisle.

    I was raised in a house that didn't fraternize with Nutter Butters, and dammit that is just how I live my life.
    Perhaps it's because it contains the word "butt".

    We did Chips Ahoy, Oreos, those Keebler fudge-covered graham cookies I can't think of the name of, Ritz Bitz (not really a cookie, I know), Animal Crackers, and these big soft chocolate cookies with sugar crystals on top that came in an English Muffin style tray in a bag.

    I was practically made of peanut butter as a child, maybe my mom figured I needed more chocolate, graham, and cheese cracker nutrients to round out my diet.

    YASSSSSS! They might live in a tree and wear pointed toe shoes, but those damn elves could make a good graham cookie. They don't taste the same now, or I have just over-idolized how they tasted then. <sigh>

    Fudge stripes are the best of the Elven cookies.

    While I disagree with your conclusion, I can respect your point. To graham or not to graham is one of the age old questions. I might have to run out and get a package of each and give it more thought. And I mean literally run - I'm gonna need more exercise calories for this. After I finish my open package of Oreos. They seem to be going soft faster than they used to, although maybe it's just the atrociously humid weather.

    Oooooo I recently had some because the Girl Scout S'mores cookie (made by the same company) gave me a hankerin' for them. The GS cookies had this weird taste so I was doing a taste test thing.

    Of course.

    :)

    The originals were soooooooooo good.

    When Jeff Sessions fires up the cookie oven, he makes some really good cookies! :)

    One of my my unpopular opinions is that Grasshoppers are better than Girl Scout Mint Thins...

    This was my favorite Keebler cookie when I was younger

    Also remember eating a lot of this one too

    We also bought a lot of the regular Chips Ahoy & either the Chips Ahoy Candy Blasts or the Keebler Rainbow Chips Deluxe.

    I recently discovered that Trader Joe's Joe-Joes are perhaps superior to the original oreo. Or at least an excellent substitute.

    I've tried the Joe Joes. They tasted off somehow.

    I mentioned earlier that Golden Oreos were my favorite Oreo. I think Vienna Fingers are actually better. I don't eat them ravenously; they are the kind of thing I would eat slowly for way too long and suddenly realize I have eaten about half the package. I have to count them out, log them and eat them far away from the package.

    I buy the Oreos dipped in white chocolate and then decorate them for my Christmas Cookie gifts. Personally, I'll trade you my oreos for some Keebler Pecan Sandies!

    They used to sell the Pecan Sandies in 100 calorie packs. I loooooove those damned cookies so them portion controlling it for me was a huge bonus. Damned Keebler getting rid of those portion controlled packs of deliciousness.

    I love pecans; the sandies are another one I need to get a couple of and eat them far away from the package.

    S’mores Oreos, They may be getting out of control with all the flavors but these were amazing

    Agreed, I thought the Smores were really good. I'm working on the Strawberry Shortcake right now, they are yummy but extra sweet so I'll probably get tired of them before I finish them. Still have a Rocky Road in the pantry, but I think I'm in the mood for some Thins first!
