I reference The Simpsons because the picture on the packaging definitely looks like it could be of the Lard Lad variety.<\/p>\n<p>To be fair, the brand has had a steady stream of knockout limited edition flavors, so by Murphy&#8217;s Law, there&#8217;s bound to be a dud. This one was that dud for me for a few reasons.<\/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\/2021\/03\/Limited-Edition-Strawberry-Frosted-Donut-Oreo-Cookies-Creme.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Limited Edition Strawberry Frosted Donut Oreo Cookies Creme\" title=\"Limited Edition Strawberry Frosted Donut Oreo Cookies Creme.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>First and foremost, the glitter was non-existent. There were clearly colorful pieces, but it was more like pieces of rainbow sprinkles rather than any sparkle or shine. It also didn&#8217;t help that the smell was overwhelmingly vanilla, just like a birthday cake or confetti flavor, which further reinforced cake instead of a donut.<\/p>\n<p>I will admit that I did not try the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2020\/03\/23\/trolls-world-tour-oreo-cookies-review\/\">Trolls World Tour version<\/a>, which also featured &#8220;glitter.&#8221; Apparently, we didn&#8217;t complain enough then because they just tried to plug and play with this one.<\/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\/2021\/03\/Limited-Edition-Strawberry-Frosted-Donut-Oreo-Cookies-Layers.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Limited Edition Strawberry Frosted Donut Oreo Cookies Layers\" title=\"Limited Edition Strawberry Frosted Donut Oreo Cookies Layers.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The flavor itself was distinctly artificial strawberry. Think creamy, muted like strawberry-flavored pocky or Nesquik as opposed to a bright, slightly tart, and fresh strawberry. The light brown cr\u00e8me added nothing to the flavor department. Even eaten solo, it was one-note and ambiguously sweet like it was straight-up table sugar. If this was supposed to be the donut part, I definitely didn&#8217;t get that.<\/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\/2021\/03\/Limited-Edition-Strawberry-Frosted-Donut-Oreo-Cookies-Layers-Closeup.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Limited Edition Strawberry Frosted Donut Oreo Cookies Layers Closeup\" title=\"Limited Edition Strawberry Frosted Donut Oreo Cookies Layers Closeup.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My final gripe is that it&#8217;s pretty clear they&#8217;re finding clever ways to reduce their costs. The cookie&#8217;s image on the front of the pack looks like an even double stack of cr\u00e8me. When you look at the actual thing, the cr\u00e8me overlaps to create just one layer. Furthermore, like most of their limited edition packs, it&#8217;s a smaller 12.2 oz package size (compared to a standard 14.3 oz package) at a higher price.<\/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\/2021\/03\/Limited-Edition-Strawberry-Frosted-Donut-Oreo-Cookies-Open.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Limited Edition Strawberry Frosted Donut Oreo Cookies Open\" title=\"Limited Edition Strawberry Frosted Donut Oreo Cookies Open.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not an awful flavor, but Oreo can do better because we&#8217;ve experienced it!
