A favorite!

 

I suppose one could buy these to eat, rather than just stealing them from the package when you're making a recipe that calls for them.

[Kim Shook]

Picked these up:

 

 

They are basically glammed up Golden Oreos.  I like Golden Oreos and my favorite color combination is pink and green.  They are just a gimmick and NOT a new flavor.

The java chips ones are ok; nothing spectacular but not bad either.  I did notice that the curbside grocery store had a family size pack of Dark Chocolate Oreos ❤️ so at long last, I have more of those :)!   those pink and green (silver paper toffee paper 😄) ones might be good for a featured cupcake flavor.....

These caught my eye yesterday as a new flavor.  They are limited edition.  I guess the tan colored frosting is the donut flavor.  Very sweet.  I guess it's a little like a strawberry donut.  

 

 

 

But they aren't very glittery 😠

I love girly stuff (witness the Gaga Oreos) and would have bought these JUST for the glitter.  And been very disgruntled at the lack thereof.

Why can't they just leave well enough alone?

Because there are people like me that can't walk by without putting weird flavors in their cart.

They have marketing people specifically devoted to people like you.

What next, @Shelby ?

 

Banh mi flavored? Dove flavored?

I think the first....hoisin sauce might pair well with chocolate.....

Mr. Kim picked these up at the store:

No detectable coconut flavor and there is the usual commercial baker's muddle with "caramel".  They inevitably call it "caramel" when what they really mean is "fake maple".  🙄

I bought these at Target yesterday.  Java Chip flavor.

 

I thought they were pretty good.  The chocolate cookie is the dominant flavor but you can certainly taste the coffee, too. Note that it says there are "chocolatey chips" in the coffee creme, NOT actual chocolate chips.  Since they're about the size of a grain of salt, I was't really expecting actual chocolate chips. 

The amount of filling seemed kind of random.  Some had a lot, others much less.  Maybe those pesky chocolatey chips plug up the creme dispenser? 🙃

I read some reviews that seemed to think these weren't sweet enough.  I disagree.

Thanks for highlighting these. I bought some and enjoyed them with my morning coffee which is sort of redundant since they're coffee-flavored. But good! 

Funny thing is when I went back to my Walmart Grocery store the next week, they were completely sold out. Or just not stocked (Walmart is famous for not stocking items).

"Oreo’s New Apple Cider Donut Cookies Just Hit Stores To Fast Forward Us To Fall"

Quote

The Golden Oreos are stuffed with apple cider-flavored creme to deliver that donut flavor you look forward to each year. The limited-edition cookies are available in 12.2-ounce containers and can be found wherever Oreos are sold.

If anyone sees them in their store, please take one for the team, try them and please report back.

I just saw Oreos with orange colored cream/Halloween graphics on the package at the supermarket today and thought "really? 2 months early?"

Yes. Walmart has had the Candy Corn/Marshmallow Pumpkins "Autumn Mix" on sale the past few weeks. The Halloween candy likely isn't far behind.

Ok, y'all owe me.  I took one for the team and bought and tried these things:

Mr. Kim asked if they were from Yankee Candle rather than Oreo.  Terribly fake tasting.  No recognizable "Apple Cider" flavor at all.  We're hoping that the squirrels will be less discerning than us.

Kim! I am so sorry they turned out to be so...fake tasting.

You would think by now with all of the different limited editions of Oreos that they've put out that "fake" won't cut it. Plus, it lessens the brand's reputation in the long run so you think they would know better.

But thanks for taking one for the team!

Stopped in the grocery store seeking wasabi, miso and Niçoise olives.  Struck out on all three at the first place but I did buy Chocolate Hazelnut Oreos:

I ate one.  Nothing awful about them but I couldn't detect anything Nutella-like in the flavor and the filling was sweeter than the Dark Chocolate or the Java Chip where the filling actually did have a coffee flavor. 

I'll put them in the cupboard for a while and see what happens.  Maybe I'll develop more of a sweet tooth...or find a recipe that calls for Oreos 🙃

Limited edition Gingerbread Oreo's:

Actually, not too bad. The ginger flavor isn't that over-powering.

I could have done without the sugar crystals in the creme filling, but the flavor of the cookie is okay.

Now it makes me wonder why they didn't do a half dark chocolate Oreo/half Gingerbread Oreo. Or would that be too weird?

THIS!  I'd definitely try those.

Here are the latest releases. According to the article I read the Ultimate Chocolate is a limited release and will go away, the Toffee Crunch is going to stay around.
