It&#8217;s a limited edition flavor exclusive to Walmart, but I visited my nearest Walmart several times over the course of three weeks and each time I walked out empty handed. After being disappointed for the umpteenth time, I decided to drive 17 miles to the next farthest Walmart, which had a diabetes-causing stock of Limited Edition Ice Cream Oreo Rainbow Shure, Bert!<\/p>\n<p>So to Walmart store #5274, you&#8217;re awesome!

Closeup\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It has a strong fruity aroma that hit my nose soon after lifting the easy open pull tab for the first time. It did smell like sherbet and what I imagine releasing the ghosts of the Fruit of the Loom guys would smell like. Limited Edition Ice Cream Oreo Rainbow Shure, Bert! is made up of raspberry and lime filling in between two Golden Oreo cookies. The raspberry and lime creme ratio varies from cookie to cookie, but I thought they all tasted the same. <\/p>\n<p>One of the issues I had with last year&#8217;s Limited Edition Creamsicle Oreo cookies was that the Creamsicle flavor was hidden behind the Golden Oreo cookies, but that was not the case with these Rainbow Shure, Bert! Oreo cookies. Actually, because the sherbet flavor is quite strong, I think some eaters might think they&#8217;re a bit too sweet. <\/p>\n<p>When I first heard about these cookies, I thought what kind of rainbow sherbet has only two flavors, but the raspberry and lime combination was extremely tasty and it did taste like sherbet. The raspberry creme had very little tartness and the lime had an equal amount of sourness, but they were both really sweet. While the raspberry was noticeable while chewing the cookie, it disappeared soon after and my taste buds were left with the lime flavor, which lingered in my mouth long after the cookie was swallowed. <\/p>\n<p>The Limited Edition Ice Cream Oreo Rainbow Shure, Bert! cookies are damn good, but if you want to make them slightly better, albeit slightly tougher to bite through, I&#8217;d recommend sticking some in the freezer for a few hours. For some reason, the freezing temperatures enhances the sherbet flavor. I&#8217;d also like to suggest you not eat these Oreo cookies by twisting the top off and licking the creme. I thought they were significantly less enjoyable that way.<\/p>\n<p>While I still don&#8217;t know how to properly pronounce the word &#8220;sherbet,&#8221; I do know these Limited Edition Ice Cream Oreo Rainbow Shure, Bert! cookies are super duper delectable and if you&#8217;re able to find them, I&#8217;d suggest you pick them up.<\/p>\n<p><small>(Nutrition Facts &#8211; 2 cookies &#8211; 150 calories, 60 calories from fat, 7 grams of fat, 2 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 1 gram of polyunsaturated fat, 3 grams of monounsaturated fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 80 milligrams of sodium, 15 milligrams of potassium, 21 grams of carbohydrates, 0 grams of fiber, 12 grams of sugar, and less than 1 gram of protein.)<\/small><\/p>\n<p><b>Other Limited Edition Ice Cream Oreo Rainbow Shure, Bert! reviews:<\/b><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/junkfoodguy.com\/2012\/05\/13\/found-limited-edition-rainbow-shure-bert-ice-cream-oreo-happy-mothers-day-some-sports-thoughts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Junk Food Guy<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/fatguyfoodblog.blogspot.com\/2012\/06\/ice-cream-oreo-rainbow-shure-bert.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fatguy Food Blog<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b> Limited Edition Ice Cream Oreo Rainbow Shure, Bert!<br \/>\n<b>Price:<\/b>  $3.48<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b> 15.25 ounces<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b> Walmart<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 8 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b> Super duper tasty.
