The cookies carry a gentle nutty and sweet aroma rounded out by a kiss of cocoa.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not sure what the general consensus is on Thins versus the full sized real deal, but I enjoy their soft crumbly texture and mild sweetness, and the Pistachio version is no exception.<\/p>\n<p>The sweet somewhat floral notes of the cr\u00e8me work surprisingly well with the chocolate cookie, with neither flavor being too dominant over the other. The overall taste reminds me of pistachio ice cream, both in flavor and texture, with hints of almond-y marzipan and creamy vanilla.<\/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\/2018\/06\/Pistachio-Creme-Oreo-Thins-Cookies-2.jpg?resize=550%2C734&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Pistachio Creme Oreo Thins Cookies 2\" title=\"Pistachio Creme Oreo Thins Cookies 2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"550\" height=\"734\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I find them incredibly easy to put back in succession with a unique but very snack-able flavor that\u2019s very tasty. It\u2019s a much truer representation of sweet pistachio than the coconut ones were of coconut, and much like with the also delicious Pina Colada, the smaller amount of cr\u00e8me works well to deliver the right amount of flavor without being too intense.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s something old school and comforting about pistachio that feels like a cozy day at grandma\u2019s house or grabbing a cone at the oldest scoop shop in town. It\u2019s classic but new, and as a result, it\u2019s a wonderful change from more bizarre Nabisco attempts, like Swedish Fish and Root Beer Float.<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind these aren\u2019t for everyone, but as someone who thinks Pistachio Pistachio is one of the more underrated Ben &#038; Jerry\u2019s pints, I think these Thins are a smashing success. Or at least a success that\u2019s going to find me smashing six in a row without blinking an eye.<\/p>\n<p><small>(Nutrition Facts &#8211; 4 cookies \u2013 140 calories, 6 grams of fat, 2 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 95 milligrams of sodium, 21 grams of carbohydrates, 0 grams of fiber, 12 grams of sugar, and 1 gram of protein.)<\/small><\/p>\n<p><b>Purchased Price:<\/b> $2.99<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b> 10.1 oz. package<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b> Target<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 9 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b> Great balanced ice cream-y pistachio flavor.
