Coca-Cola Oreos In September 2024, Coca-Cola Oreos hit the shelves! The secret formula for this iconic drink is locked deep in a vault in Atlanta. Could Nabisco even hope to recreate this classic without it? Let's find out together. We are B and V and WE RATE OREOS! Creativity  V-  All the points! I've used Coca-Cola in baking to enrich my cocoa powder, but I've never thought to attempt to make a dessert actually taste like pop. It's truly a novel idea. B-  Creative, for sure, but t hese are...weird. The package honestly smells like soda pop when you open it, like if it had exploded and dried out in the car.  Execution V- The execution is rough! The top red cookie tastes like Coca-Cola, then you have regular creme with pop rocks, and the bottom cookie is chocolate. I loved the Coca-Cola cookie and I always appreciate Oreos with pop rocks in the creme. Then, the chocolate cookie pops in and messes with the whole flavor! It adds this weird heaviness to everything and m...

In A Galaxy Far Far Away... on the tenth of June, two Oreo types were released. Red and blue. The red Oreos embody the dark side of The Force. They feature villainous characters and dark creatures who wish to use The Force to gain unbridled power. The blue Oreos are humanity's only hope. They depict beloved characters of power, goodness, and light. What side are you on? Prepare your lightsabers, because we are B and V and WE RATE OREOS! Creativity  V- The Star Wars Oreos are creatively taking my money! There is a red pack (with Star Wars villains) and a blue pack (with Star Wars heroes). You don't know which pack you get until you open it, so you may have to work a bit to unlock everything. The red and blue creme are just classic Oreo flavors. Full creativity points for the execution though. I had a hard time finding the blue pack. Perhaps the universe is trying to tempt me to choose the dark side!  B- I definitely purchased two packs in order to see both colors. (Luckily I on...

Sour Patch Oreos

Sour Patch Oreos  In April 2024, the sandwich cookie gods released Sour Patch Oreos onto grocery store shelves. Sour Patch Kids, much like Taylor Swift, rebrand every few decades to keep up with pop culture trends. In the 70s, they were Martians to reflect the space craze. In the 80s, they were marketed as kids to embody Cabbage Patch fever, but they were not portrayed as mischievous as the current iteration. Does Nabisco's interpretation elevate this wildly popular treat? Let's find out! We are B and V, and WE RATE OREOS!   Creativity B- This cookie aimed high for creativity... Higher than any cookie should... V- Yeah! Few have attempted to turn a sweet and sour candy into a cookie to this extent. I love to bake, but I have no clue how to make a cookie taste like sour candy. I am thrilled that someone did it though, so I don't have to die not knowing! Execution V- I was shocked by how much I liked these. The human element of Sour Patch Kids freaks me out too much to eat ...
