    Carrot cake is my daughters favorite cake. I saw them at the grocery store and bought her a package. She said they taste like carrot cake, but that they are really sweet, and that she couldn’t eat more than one cookie at a time, so maybe a good thing calorie wise. I didn’t try them. I like the thin lemon ones the best.

    Carrot cake are amazing!

    Finally got my hands on Carrot Cake. They are not like the package upthread, they have a "cream cheese icing" filling with carrot cake flavored cookies. The cookies are pretty good but the filling is IMHO cloyingly sweet, and it's more double-stuf sized so it kind of overtakes everything. I think I would have liked them better with just the classic white filling. I suspect I will be occasionally flicking the filling off and eating just the cookies on these!

    I have another bag ready to go. I forget the official name, but there is peanut butter involved and I can't wait :tongue:

    Ooh thanks! I might still have to try them. I noticed PB&J the other day, but surprisingly that in no way tempted me.

    PB&J were a little "meh" for me too. Too much emphasis on the "J". My PB&J sammies are heavily weighted toward the PB :lol:

    I think fruit flavors in general are tricky in cookies. Lemon is the only fruit flavor I consistently like in packaged cookies.

    My PB&Js are always make with a thin smear strawberry jam. I don't like grape jelly. Emphasis on the PB part :lol:

    I always save a few calories for 2 or 3 oreos for my after dinner treat 😁

    I'm on my last s'moreo of the 4 packages I bought. Not last package. Last s'moreo. And my local Target (which says they have some in stock) didn't have any. Is it ok to break down in tears in this situation? They're my favorite *sniffle*

    Saddest story on the whole internet today.

    I'm kinda mad at them ever since they took the trans fat out and didn't tell us. They don't taste as good but they are still pretty good. The thins are nice.

    I don't like eating traditional Oreos on their own but I do like blending them up with cream cheese and making them into cheesecake truffle balls.

    I also like the cinnamon bun Oreos. They are yummy! My husband brought some back to Australia with him on his last trip back to visit his family in Canada. I've also tried the lemon thin ones which are ok but not great. Red velvet is also pretty delish.

    That's a genius idea. Reminds me of the lady on the Confessions thread that posted she hides her snacks in a tampon box :D.


    Went to a few stores looking for The Carrot Cake Oreos, but found nothing. If anyone tries leave a review.

    These might be good...I don't even like Oreos except I do remember liking the Golden ones.
