Mint Chip is the Oreo flavor of the moment<\/a>. It is currently on shelves in cookie form and now as a cereal. So, is the cereal good enough to warrant branching out with new cereal varieties?<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/postminchiporeocer2.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&ssl=1\")
<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s the deal \u2014 this cereal is quite minty. But unlike the deplorable Froot Loops Sherbet Scoops cereal I begrudgingly consumed for my last review (in case you missed it, it\u2019s designed to \u201ccool\u201d your mouth), the mint here actually made sense. It was subtler than the mint of a Mint Oreo cookie but still noticeable and moderately enjoyable. (Really, how much you enjoy the mint in these is entirely contingent on how much you enjoy mint, you know?) I cannot, however, understand how this was mint chip and not just regular mint; the mint \u201cflavor crystals,\u201d for lack of a better term, were of a little \u201cchippier\u201d texture than the rest of the cereal, so, maybe that\u2019s it. (Note: I have not tried the Mint Chip Cookie, though Sean recently reviewed it.)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The chocolate\u2014which purports to be made of real Oreo cookie pieces\u2014was predictably Oreo-wafer-like in taste. (That said, I don\u2019t know how distinct the chocolate Oreo wafer taste truly is. It\u2019s really when combined in concert with the creme that we get the cookie\u2019s real essence.)<\/p>\n
One thing that surprised me was how these held up in milk. The last bite was truly as crunchy as the first, a quality that is both terrifying and wonderful. On the one hand, I wish all of my favorite cereals had this sustainability, but I also shudder to think what petrification may be occurring with my internal organs.<\/p>\n
While I found these Mint Chip Oreo O\u2019s to be perfectly fine, I don\u2019t feel compelled enough to buy them again. Now, if they\u2019re interested in trying out a peanut butter version\u2014peanut butter being the best Oreo variant by far\u2014then sign me up.<\/p>\n
