\"Limited<\/p>\n

A limited edition Oreo cookie gets a lot of attention. But a limited edition Oreo cookie that features another brand gets a lot more attention. The combining of two brands is what I believe marketing people call “synergy.”<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen it before with <\/a>Swedish Fish and <\/a>Peeps Oreo. And we\u2019re seeing it again with these Limited Edition Dunkin\u2019 Donuts Mocha Oreo Cookies. <\/p>\n

While one of those earlier flavors is in the running for Worst Oreo Flavor Ever and the other one turned <\/a>our poop pink, this mocha-flavored sandwich cookie seems like an idea that can’t go wrong and won’t turn poop an unnatural color.<\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/p>\n

The cookie looks like a regular Oreo with chocolate creme. But while the wafer is the standard one, the creme is Dunkin\u2019 Donuts Mocha-flavored. As you all know, mocha is coffee and chocolate, and coffee has a distinguishable aroma. But these cookies smell like what they look like, Oreo cookies with chocolate creme. Despite using my nose as hard as a dog sniffing where several other dogs have peed, I couldn\u2019t get a hint of coffee. <\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/p>\n

While their scent is not what I expected, I also did not expect to see a crease on the side of the creme layer. It looks as if the creme machine spit out two applications at one time. Of course, yours might look different. But the machine that made these needs some recalibration. <\/p>\n

If you’re hoping for a decent coffee flavor from these sandwich cookies, you’re not going to get it. The creme alone does have a mocha flavor to it, and it tastes decent, but it leans more toward the chocolate than the coffee. This leads to a problem. When the two wafers are in the mix, the cookie falls completely over to the chocolate side. I thought the slight bitterness of the wafers would somehow enhance the coffee flavor, but it didn\u2019t. I believe that’s what psychologists would call “wishful thinking.”<\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/p>\n

The Limited Edition Dunkin’ Donuts Mocha Oreo Cookies are mediocre. There\u2019s no coffee aroma and no coffee flavor when eaten whole, so there\u2019s no way I’d recommend picking them up if you’re wanting a coffee Oreo. With that said, they’re tasty as a chocolate cookie, but that’s not what I want. <\/p>\n

They’re so disappointing that I just want to get some <\/a>Hydrox cookies and dunk them in Starbucks coffee. And I believe that\u2019s what my therapist would call “spite.\u201d<\/p>\n
