Happy Happy Wednesday everybody!!! I’ve been such a long time fan of Oreos in general, as well as all of their limited edition, usually seasonal flavors. Obviously, the plethora of new and fun flavors that have recently come out has basically been like Christmas for my inner chubby kid. I do want to point out that these were almost all impossible to find, which is super irritating because I don’t at all live in the middle of nowhere, I live in a large bustling city and I swear there is a conspiracy or something haha. If anyone out there has a BFF or cousin or something at Nabisco would you please pass along the message to send all new Oreo flavors directly to Atlanta, mmkay, thanks! Anyways, onto the first one…
In keeping with the whole couldn’t find theme, after visiting a million stores, I finally broke down and ordered these Waffles & Syrup Oreos on Amazon (for triple the price they should have been she says bitterly to herself) and I have yet to see these in any stores even as recently as of this morning, sigh. But, these were everywhere on social media and I just couldn’t wait to get my hands on them…
the inside, and I do appreciate the attempted ‘syrup’ look…
Okay, so in typical Oreo fashion, these are tasty, but I don’t go ‘holy cow are you sure these are really cookies and not real Waffles and Syrup?!’ There is maybe, just maybe a hint of syrup you can taste and if you close your eyes and imagine really hard, they might taste like waffles with syrup. Still, these were still super yummy golden Oreos that were just a little bit different, if you have them in your area, by all means give them a try. These get an 8 out of 10.
For the second Oreo, these Fireworks Oreos were also ones that I had to originally order online because they were nowhere to be found, but now they’re everywhere haha, oh well.
look at those popping candies…
So, my biggest concern was that the popping candy was going to be overly fruity and be a weird mix with the chocolate cookie part, and I totally had nothing to worry about. These cookies are super duper awesome. They taste like a typically delicious classic Oreo cookie except the extra fun of the mild crunch of the candy and a bit of popping. Don’t worry there’s not enough candy in the creme filling to make you look like you’re foaming at the mouth or anything, just a little bit of fun. I like these so much, I just bought more for my next cheat day 🙂 These get a solid 10 out of 10.
I want to let you guys know that I literally stalked Wal-Mart waiting for these Jelly Donut Oreos to arrive there, like, to the point I actually got weird looks from people there if that tells you anything, that’s how obsessed I was to try them. On the bright side, I didn’t have to pay 3x the price to order them online see above bitterness…
Again, nice little visual for the ‘jelly’…
It didn’t dawn on me until later that it is not denoted anywhere, or at least where I’ve seen what flavor jelly this is supposed to be. Grape? maybe, but I do have a preference for raspberry filling in real doughnuts, just FYI. Anyways, again, this ended up being another typically tasty Golden Oreo, but that ‘jelly’ flavor leaves a lot to be desired. Can you see how ‘wet’ it looks in the picture above? yeah, that’s weird, not sure why it had that texture, and the flavor was ambiguous in it’s fruitiness (literally words I never thought I would put together). That ‘jelly’ part was pretty acidic tasting which wasn’t exactly what I was hoping for. I only ate one of these if that tells you anything, I literally don’t do one of anything when it comes to food. In the future, I’ll just stick to real jelly filled doughnuts instead of cookies pretending to be them. These get a 6 out of 10 and only that high of a score because me and Oreos go way back, I am still a loyal Oreo fan after all haha.
I hope you’re having a wonderful day and as always I totally appreciate every single one of you for stopping by…Also, anything you want me to review? Give me a shout!
