It\u2019s disappointing Nabisco didn\u2019t use their Oreo Thins technology to stack two thin creme layers on top of each other to make it look more like a PB&#038;J sandwich and less like Grimace lying on top his own filth after drinking too many McDonald&#8217;s chocolate shakes.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Limited-Edition-PBJ-Oreo-Cookies-2.jpg?resize=599%2C460\" alt=\"Limited Edition PB J Oreo Cookies 2\" title=\"Limited Edition PB&#038;J Oreo Cookies 2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"599\" height=\"460\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The peanut butter creme has a pleasant balance of sweet and salty. I haven&#8217;t had Peanut Butter Oreo Cookies in a long time, so I\u2019m not sure if this one tastes similar. But when I lick the creme and eat the cookie, Nutter Butter pops into my head. The jelly creme tastes like the same one used in the Limited Edition Jelly Donut Oreo. While I didn\u2019t care for it with that cookie, I like it in this one. While it has an artificial raspberry flavor when eaten alone, it\u2019s turns into a generic berry flavor when eating a whole cookie.<\/p>\n<p>When the two cremes come together in one bite, it brings a smile to my face because the cookie hits the PB&#038;J flavor target. There\u2019s the right balance between the two cremes, one flavor doesn\u2019t overwhelm the other. These cookies make Smuckers Uncrustables seem more like Unbearables. The Golden wafers are great as the \u201cbread\u201d for these cookies because, while sweet, they\u2019re also mild enough to allow the cremes to shine.<\/p>\n<p>These cookies are delightful, so much so that I&#8217;d bet money we\u2019ll be seeing these as a permanent or returning flavor in the future. Also, let me include more praise by stating this is one of my Top 5 favorite limited edition Oreo cookies.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Limited-Edition-PBJ-Oreo-Cookies-3.jpg?resize=599%2C417\" alt=\"Limited Edition PB J Oreo Cookies 3\" title=\"Limited Edition PB&#038;J Oreo Cookies 3.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"599\" height=\"417\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While wonderful, I do have some minor issues with it. The way the creme layer is forces us to bite into a particular side to get both flavors in our mouths. Approach it from the wrong side and you end up with all peanut butter or all jelly. Of course, one can overcome that by shoving the whole cookie into your mouth like a competitive Oreo eater. <\/p>\n<p>Also, raspberry jelly is an odd choice. If I was playing <i>Family Feud<\/i> and Steve Harvey asked me \u201cName me a jelly flavor you\u2019d put on a PB&#038;J sandwich,\u201d I\u2019m sure answering \u201craspberry\u201d wouldn\u2019t be any help towards getting to 200 points.<\/p>\n<p>So to all who have been burned by previous Oreo flavors, the Limited Edition PB&#038;J Oreo is one helluva \u201cI\u2019m Sorry\u201d card from Nabisco.<\/p>\n<p><small>(Nutrition Facts &#8211; 2 cookies &#8211; 140 calories, 50 calories from fat, 6 grams of fat, 1.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 95 milligrams of sodium, 25 milligrams of potassium, 21 grams of carbohydrates, 0 grams of fiber, 11 grams of sugar, and 1 gram of protein.)<\/small><\/p>\n<p><b>Purchased Price:<\/b> Too much from eBay<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b> 10.7 oz. package<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b> Kroger (by eBay seller)<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 9 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b> Does PB&#038;J well.
