It&#8217;s only October, and there&#8217;s ZERO snow in sight, but my heart is-a-singin&#8217; cause Gingerbread Oreo are back! Sort of. Originally released way back in 2012 and making appearances for several years after, Gingerbread Oreo have returned to usher in the 2020 holiday season in a new festive form.<\/p>\n<p>The original Gingerbread Oreo, last seen in 2015, was a standard Golden Oreo cookie filled with a gingerbread-flavored creme. The newest iteration is a gingerbread-flavored cookie filled with classic Oreo creme and crunchy sugar crystals. The wafers are garnished with five wintery designs to warm our holiday hearts.<\/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\/2020\/10\/Limited-Edition-Gingerbread-Oreo-Cookies-2020-Designs.jpeg?resize=600%2C257&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Limited Edition Gingerbread Oreo Cookies 2020 Designs\" title=\"Limited Edition Gingerbread Oreo Cookies 2020 Designs.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"257\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m an autumn boy through and through, and spice is the name of my game. The last three years, Pumpkin Spice Oreo have vanished from shelves, and while Maple is a nice addition, it doesn&#8217;t quite hit with the same punch as those lovely warming spices. Needless to say, I love the new Gingerbread Oreo.<\/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\/2020\/10\/Limited-Edition-Gingerbread-Oreo-Cookies-2020-Sleeves.jpeg?resize=600%2C632&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Limited Edition Gingerbread Oreo Cookies 2020 Sleeves\" title=\"Limited Edition Gingerbread Oreo Cookies 2020 Sleeves.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"632\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Opening the package is like a cozy holiday nostril massage full of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, rounded out with a cool vanilla sweetness. Gingerbread is at its best when its aggressive spice is complimented by a sweet, soothing and creamy, frosting. The cookie itself isn&#8217;t over the top spicy, but it&#8217;s more pronounced in its assertiveness than Cinnamon Bun and a whole helluva lot more impressive than the lackluster Cookie Butter.<\/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\/2020\/10\/Limited-Edition-Gingerbread-Oreo-Cookies-2020-Creme.jpeg?resize=600%2C831&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Limited Edition Gingerbread Oreo Cookies 2020 Creme\" title=\"Limited Edition Gingerbread Oreo Cookies 2020 Creme.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"831\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The balance between the cookie and the creme is great. While I wouldn&#8217;t have been mad at a cream cheese flavored filling, the original Oreo &#8220;white stuf&#8221; does a convincing job at bringing the sugary blast my tinsel-y tastebuds want.<\/p>\n<p>The crunchy sugar crystals add a nice little textural intrigue. Their red color, paired with the undeniably cute designs on the outside, really brings the jingle bell vibes full circle. The Oreo actually look like a perfect cookie representation of an inverted slice of gingerbread loaf, and I find the visual-meets-taste appeal to be hard to stop eating. I just want to keep going. <em>Run run as fast as you can, you can&#8217;t catch me I&#8217;m the gingerbread man!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes, it&#8217;s still spooky season, and I actually dug into these right before watching &#8220;The Thing&#8221; for the sixth time. But it&#8217;s my first taste of Christmas this year, and quite frankly, Nabisco won me over. Whether these are better than the sweeter and more vanilla-forward Gingerbread Oreo of the past will be totally subjective. But for this spicy boy they&#8217;re right in the same tier of junk food greatness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $4.99<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> 10.7 oz<br \/>\n<strong>Purchased at:<\/strong> Walgreens<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 9 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> (2 cookies) 150 calories, 7 grams of fat, 2 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 75 milligrams of sodium, 20 grams of carbohydrates, 0 grams of fiber, 12 grams of total sugars, and less than 1 gram of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cGin-ger-bread gin-ger-bread gin-ger-bread Or-eee-ooo.
