Due to the melting pot nature of our country, everything seems to be imported, or even worse, STOLEN, from somewhere else. <\/p>\n<p>The first food that comes to mind is the iconic burger, but nope, that one goes to Otto Kuase, in Hamburg, Germany. There\u2019s New York\u2019s pizza, taken from Italy, San Francisco\u2019s burritos, adapted from Mexico, Los Angeles\u2019 sushi, taken from Japan. You get the picture. All of our staples are a result of our acceptance, inclusion, (and colonization &#8211; yikes) of all types of cultures.<\/p>\n<p>But apple pie, nothing is more American than apple pie, right? Wrong! Even apple pie, which is considered so American it was used as motivational propaganda for BOTH World Wars was brought over by the Dutch and Swedes during the 18th century. Can we do anything for ourselves?<\/p>\n<p>Yes, yes we can. American\u2019s can claim the Oreo, the shining sandwich star that has been the top dog of all factory cookies since 1912, as truly American. Since a burger Oreo would be pretty gross, next in line for a purely patriotic collab is apple pie, and that\u2019s exactly what we got &#8211; apple pie creme in graham wafer 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\/09\/Limited-Edition-Apple-Pie-Oreo-Cookies-2.jpg?resize=550%2C550\" alt=\"Limited Edition Apple Pie Oreo Cookies 2\" title=\"Limited Edition Apple Pie Oreo Cookies 2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"550\" height=\"550\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The smell-o-vision on these Oreo is fantastic &#8211; immediately and unmistakably apple pie with sharp fruity apple and spicy sweet cinnamon jumping out of the package. Sometimes the golden wafers can overpower my initial sniff and taste impression of a new Oreo and I\u2019m glad they went with graham here as I\u2019m not getting any unnecessary vanilla sweetness, just pure apple power.<\/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\/09\/Limited-Edition-Apple-Pie-Oreo-Cookies-3.jpg?resize=449%2C600\" alt=\"Limited Edition Apple Pie Oreo Cookies 3\" title=\"Limited Edition Apple Pie Oreo Cookies 3.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"449\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Crunching into these circular slices of American hope and dreams is nothing short of a relaxing countryside morning full of perfection. The flavor starts with fresh, tart, juicy apple and quickly turns to cinnamon before finishing with smooth, golden, and slightly earthy graham notes. There are hints of caramel and a wonderful balance of sweetness that\u2019s kept in check by the bursts of acidity brought by the apple. The overall profile is very true to the sweet-yet-tart nature of apples and is deliciously convincing as a cookie.<\/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\/09\/Limited-Edition-Apple-Pie-Oreo-Cookies-4.jpg?resize=598%2C291\" alt=\"Limited Edition Apple Pie Oreo Cookies 4\" title=\"Limited Edition Apple Pie Oreo Cookies 4.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"598\" height=\"291\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The creme on this pie-eo is also softer and creamier than a lot of other varieties. It&#8217;s more like what I expect from a Trader Joe&#8217;s Joe-Joe.  There&#8217;s a certain unctuous-ness that\u2019s pleasant and draws immediate comparisons to gooey fresh apple pie filling. This Oreo isn\u2019t tame, and it might not be for everyone, but I love it and think they nailed the execution. <\/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\/09\/Limited-Edition-Apple-Pie-Oreo-Cookies-5.jpg?resize=550%2C550\" alt=\"Limited Edition Apple Pie Oreo Cookies 5\" title=\"Limited Edition Apple Pie Oreo Cookies 5.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"550\" height=\"550\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While last year&#8217;s Blueberry Pie was one of my favorites flavor-wise, it\u2019s pretty hard to capture true blueberry flavor in a factory setting.
