Just like the Earth is going to eventually run out of fossil fuels, Nabisco is going to run out of Oreo flavors. I’m no Oreologist, so I can’t estimate when that\u2019ll happen, but unless Oreo starts going the salmon p\u00e2t\u00e9 route, they’re going to run out of ideas.<\/p>\n

Every year for the past few years, Oreo has come out with around half a dozen new flavors, and that doesn\u2019t even include brand spinoffs like Oreo Thins. It’s an impressive rate. The creators of these new Oreo varieties must be frantically working with natural and artificial flavors to keep up this pace. I’m talking as frantic as North Korean rocket scientists<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The latest flavor to come out of Nabisco’s DRPK (Development of Really Pleasurable Kookies) is the Limited Edition Strawberry Shortcake Oreo.<\/p>\n

You might be thinking, \u201cIsn’t strawberry shortcake a Valentine’s Day and Easter thing now and both holidays have passed.\u201d Yeah, I know. But strawberry shortcake is like Tom Hanks. It can be whatever it wants to be.<\/p>\n

At first, the cookies had an aroma that reminded me of the Strawberry Nesquik plume I accidentally inhaled after dumping a spoonful of the powder into a glass. But later sniffs had a more generic strawberry candy vibe.<\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/a><\/p>\n

If you go by what\u2019s on the packaging, the sandwich cookie features a Pepto-Bismol-colored creme with, at first glance, what appears to be a Golden Oreo wafer. Unfortunately, the computer generated image on the package doesn\u2019t accurately portray what the wafers look like in real life. They\u2019re a bit more tanned and that\u2019s probably due to the \u201cgraham flour\u201d in it. Yes, it\u2019s the same graham flour found in the S’mores and Key Lime Oreo wafers. <\/p>\n

When eaten by themselves they do have a noticeable graham to them, but I’m not quite sure they’re the exact same ones because the other two proudly promoted the fact they had graham-flavored cookies and this flavor doesn’t.<\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/a><\/p>\n

As for the creme, I had a few ideas of how it would taste. After all, there have been almost enough strawberry-flavored Oreo varieties for Buzzfeed to create a listicle of them. There\u2019s <\/a>Strawberries \u2019n Creme, <\/a>Strawberry Milkshake, and <\/a>Berry Burst Ice Cream. However, after licking the creme, I wasn’t sure if it was from any of them. <\/p>\n

It has an artificial, but pleasant and mild strawberry flavor with a hint tanginess. I also got a slight milkiness at the back end, which I guess could represent the whipped cream of a strawberry shortcake. Its flavor reminds me of a particular strawberry candy, but I can\u2019t exactly put my tongue on it after a dozen licks.<\/p>\n

As a whole, the creme goes nicely with the graham wafers, but these Limited Edition Strawberry Shortcake Oreo Cookies were a slight letdown. I mean, they’re not bad cookies by far. I enjoyed them and I think most of you would like them.<\/p>\n

But the sandwich cookie doesn\u2019t make me think of strawberry shortcake. The cookie has the strawberry part, it obviously has the short part, and it might even have the whipped cream part, but I\u2019m not sure it has the cake part. When I think of strawberry shortcake, graham doesn’t come to mind. I know there are recipes out there that use a graham cracker crust, but does the strawberry shortcake image on the packaging look like it uses one? Maybe Golden Oreo wafers would’ve made more sense. But, again, I’m no Oreologist, so I don’t know if that would’ve made a difference.<\/p>\n

Purchased Price:<\/b> Purchased on eBay at a significantly higher price than retail
\nSize:<\/b> 10.7 oz package
\nPurchased at:<\/b> eBay (but it’s a Walmart exclusive)
\nRating:<\/b> 7 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> A decent Oreo flavor. Strawberry creme has a slight tanginess and milkiness. Getting more use out of those graham flavored cookies. New Oreo varieties coming out at an impressive rate.
\nCons:<\/b> Doesn’t make me think of strawberry shortcake. Pepto-Bismol colored creme. Strawberry creme might be from a previous flavor. North Korean rocket scientist reference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
