Strawberries n' Creme Oreo cookies!


It's not a secret that the Fatguyfoodblog crew loves Oreos. I mean, let's be honest, if you don't like at least some variant of the Oreo cookie, you are probably the devil. But we don't just love them because their cookies are delicious, we also love them for their willingness to take chances on new flavors. Well, those geniuses over at Oreo have done it again... ladies & gents I give you... THE STRAWBERRIES N' CREME OREO COOKIE!

Irwin thought they smelled delicious!

Let's start out by saying... THESE COOKIES ARE FANTASTIC. After freaking out at the store when I saw these and initially filling half my cart with them, I calmed down and talked myself into only buying one package just in case I didn't like them. I know, I know, that's flawed logic, how could they be bad? But hey, there's no need to go crazy with things, I still have unopened tubes of those White Chocolate Peppermint Pringles in the pantry. But anyway, I sped home with them, gathered the guys, explained to Irwin that he couldn't have one because they aren't for dogs, and cracked open the bag...

They sorta remind me of the Candy Cane Oreos!

The scent of strawberry filled the room, cookies were passed around, we all took a bite. Our brows furrowed for a few moments as we took it in, and then almost in unison, smiles spread across our faces and we all rejoiced! OREO HAS DONE IT AGAIN!

The strawberry flavor is strong, but not too strong. It's smooth and goes perfectly with the Oreo chocolate cookie. As much as it pains me to say so, I think that if these were Double Stuf, the strawberry flavor might be too much, so I think they are perfect just how they are.

If I were you, I'd head to the store immediately because these are a Limited Edition flavor! You really, really don't want to miss out on these!

Shortly after trying these, a thought entered my brain. An idea hatched from the deepest, darkest recesses of my fat guy mind, and I felt like the Grinch when he hatches his plan to steal all of the Xmas stuff in Who-ville.

This is literally what I looked like.

The thought was this..."Man, I wish Oreo would make a version that had this creme AND peanut butter creme, like a PB & J! Well here at Fatguyfoodblog, we make dreams come true, so I present you with the PB&J Oreo!

Oh yes...

How was this Frankenstein-esque joining of flavors? It was...GLORIOUS.

STACK EM' UP HIGH!

At first when you bite in you think that the Strawberry is too strong, but then after a couple chews, the peanut butter mixes in nicely and combines into that familiar Peanut Butter & Jelly flavor.

But it's better, because it's between two chocolate cookies!
It's like it was meant to be...

Fatguyfoodblog readers, you should definitely try this. Post pictures on our facebook wall & we'll send a free FGFB logo shirt to the one who presents it best!

I give the Strawberries n' Creme Oreos an A!

  1. You should recommend your idea of a PB&J Oreo to Nabisco. I bet they would run with it!!!!!!!!!!

  2. A friend of mine received the following for Mother's Day from her visiting exchange student from Korea: Oreo Chocolate Cream cookies, Oreo Peanut Butter cookies, regular Oreo's and Golden Oreo's. Obviously we American's like Oreo's. And those look fab.

  3. Damn, great minds think alike. The pb&j combo was the first thing I did when I picked up the strawberry cookies (I always have the pb ones on hand)I'm actually surprised there hasn't been a pb&j triple double or something yet.

    1. I know right!? It seems like something that SHOULD have been done already! Hopefully word will get out and they will make it happen officially. Until then? I'll make my own!

  4. I was hoping you would mention if they tasted like the strawberry milkshake double stuf that were around 5 years ago. Those were glorious!

    1. While those milkshake cookies were great, these are definitely a different flavor. The Strawberry is a bit stronger.

  5. Is it weird I don't associate strawberry with PB&J because I always prefered grape jelly?

    1. I can see that. I've always preferred strawberry, although nothing against grape. I've had some kick ass PB & grape jelly sandwiches in my day!
