...are freaking awesome!
UH OH I can demolish an entire pack of regular oreo's in one sitting. This doesn't look good for me.
These are foods that I disdain and do not keep in the house. Every once in a while my wife will buy them and leave them lying around. I then do my best to finish them off so I don't have to look at them.

Ditto.
I have some of those fudge-covered mint Oreos in the freezer right now. What a coincidence--there's something I need to do in the kitchen...
Oreos are nasty, just plain nasty. Y'all can eat my share. That goes for most store bought cookies.
Homemade chocolate chip on the other hand...
I think those berry oreos have a date with my gut and a glass of milk. Not necessarily in that order.

How do you feel about shrimp?

when are you making them?
You can throw all of those my way you want.
Something about store bought cookies just doesn't appeal to me. Probably because my mother was an outstanding baker. I'm probably spoiled. My wife and kids love them so there's usually a bag in the pantry.
I rarely eat sandwich cookies, and much less Oreos as I prefer Grandma's brand (made by Frito-Lay....who would have thunk it?) or Keebler's. To me, a cookie that advertises HEAVILY how great the icing in the middle is to the exclusion of the complete cookie...that's some kind of tip-off that the cookie isn't worth eating. And to me, the icing tastes too ? LARDY ? flavored.
I saw these in the store this morning, but they just don't appeal to me, like a previous poster the only Oreo I like at all is the fudge covered ones.
In reply to mad_machine:
My Mother's receipt is in her head and is measured in some obscure system that is apparently top secret. My Wife has tried to make them 100s of times and fails. My Daughter can get them right about 80% of the time. Me? I absolutely suck at making them.
I got her to send me her recipe for sausage and egg casserole.
eggs 4-12, sausage 1-5 pounds, bread to cover bottom of dish, cheese, milk, salt and pepper.
That was it. Inpercice to say the least. Her chocolate chip recipe is the same.
The sherbet ones are good too.
But all the special flavor ones seem to be good to be for a while, but not as good for just snacking all the time. I tend to have some choc ones around for when I don't want as bright or as sweet a flavor.
BTW Walmart's brand is as good as Oreos IF you like double stuff. I tend to like more cookie and less filling. And they are about $1 a pack less!!

Anytime you eat several bags of anything in one sitting it tends to dull your appreciation for it.
this thread has taught me something: there are cookie snobs out there...
i prefer the golden Oreos, but regular Oreos work if you have some milk in which to dunk them..
I am a chewy cookie kind of guy so Oreos are not my thing unless there is milk of coffee involved.
I am with Toyoman, my wife makes the best Chocolate Chip and Peanut Butter cookies so we do not buy store cookies very often.
