If you know anything about philosophy, please do not read this review because I\u2019m about to mangle the work of 14th-century friar William of Occam (or Ockham if you prefer that spelling). As I understand it, Willie had some kind of magic razor, and it told him that simple and logical is better than complex and improbable. I might not have that exactly correct, but philosophy is open to interpretation, right?<\/p>\n
What does the world\u2019s worst interpretation of the principle of Occam\u2019s razor have to do with Dairy Queen\u2019s October Blizzard of the Month? Well, the new Oreo Reese\u2019s Blizzard is about as basic and old school as possible, and yet it\u2019s also glorious. DQ Blizzards have been around for 40 years, but somehow they have never combined two of the most popular components, Oreo cookies and Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cups. Until now.<\/p>\n
This one isn\u2019t extreme or potentially explosive like some previous Blizzard names imply, and there\u2019s nothing fancy in it like truffles or red velvet. The name is completely unimaginative, and yet this Blizzard is wondrous for its simple splendor.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I thought the chocolatiness of the Oreo might clash with and overpower the more subdued peanut butter flavor of the Reese\u2019s, but just like my explanation of Occam\u2019s razor, I was wrong. The crunch and potency of the Oreos certainly are more noticeable than the Reese\u2019s, but they both complement each other and provide that great chocolate-peanut butter combination.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I also thought the DQ mixologist tried to skimp on the ingredients in my Blizzard, but once I broke through the mostly barren surface, I found a wealth of large Oreo pieces and an ample amount of Reese\u2019s. Together, the taste was not wholly unfamiliar, as I\u2019ve had countless Blizzards with either one, but it was also different enough to be very satisfying. So I can\u2019t say this is my absolute favorite Blizzard, but it definitely earns a high ranking. And not that DQ asked me, but if they were to mix in some of those decadent cheesecake bites, then this might be the perfect combination.<\/p>\n
