110th Anniversary Oreos

The Big 110!
This past March, Nabisco celebrated Oreos' big 110 anniversary with the all-new chocolate confetti cake release! For over a century, Oreos have brought joy to billions of sweet tooths around the globe. With humble beginnings, Oreos entered the market in 1912. Only two flavors were available: original and lemon. Now, with over 100 flavors, they have acquired a fearless fan base that stays loyal to milk's favorite cookie through ups and downs! From repugnant wasabi to decadent red velvet, we've been through it all! We are B and V and WE RATE OREOS!

Creativity
V- So creative! I love when Oreos are cake-flavored. The red velvet and carrot cake remain some of my favorites. Nabisco already has a birthday cake flavor that's wildly popular, so they stepped it up for the big 110. You have the colorful confetti embedded in the chocolate cookies with two layers of creme: chocolate cake and birthday confetti cake. It's a complex, multi-layered cake minimized into a cookie!

B- Agreed with V. They do a good job with cake-cookies. And they tend to get higher scores from us for a reason!

Execution
B- YES. Dead ringer for chocolate cake batter. All the joy of licking the mixing bowl with none of the mess.

V- There is a lot going on in these cookies! Some give you more chocolate cake, and others give you more vanilla confetti. I see no issues!


Does it Sparkle?
V- It literally sparkles! The cookies have colorful confetti sprinkles all over them, adding life to the dark-brown chocolate cookies. The layers are neat and crisp, so you can appreciate both of the cake flavors. The confetti sprinkles trickle beautifully into the vanilla birthday cake layer. I do not understand how they keep the cremes from getting all blended when they do different layers of creme!

B- The confetti in the cookie pieces make this version *extra* in the best way possible. Totally continued to find sprinkles in the bottom of the milk glass after eating too.

Pairing
B- Pair with milk, ice cream, a party. Hold the clowns.

V- These would be a perfect garnish for an Oreo-themed cake or cupcake. With all the different cake flavors going on, there is a lot of sweetness here. Pair them with black coffee or some Earl Grey if you eat Oreos for breakfast like I (sometimes) do.


Buy Again
V- If they stay on the market, yes! There is a reason the original birthday cake flavor remains a staple.

B- 100% would buy again also.

Overall
B- These were a fun surprise. Still not sure how I didn't notice the confetti in my first cookie of the batch...

V- These are awesome! Happy 110th birthday! I hope I have as cool of a legacy when I am that old!

Space Dunk Oreos

Killer Oreos From Outer Space January 29th, 2024, in a galaxy far far away, Nabisco's Space Dunk Oreos hit shelves! With probe Odysseus landing on the moon (the first one in decades to do so) in February and the rare eclipse happening in April, we have been partying to the moon and back! Maybe we'll finally get to meet the aliens! While this is not the first marshmallow-flavored space Oreo, it is the first to add pop rocks to the creme. Do the Space Dunk Oreos live up to the 2024 intergalactic hype? Let's find out together. We are B and V and WE RATE OREOS! Creativity V- Pop rocks and marshmallow as a flavor combo is certainly unique! If you liked it (like I did), then the risk paid off and you might find it creative. If you didn't like it, it may come across as a bizarre pairing that is more focused on being unique or edgy than flavorful. I am giving it creativity points because the theme and flavors were wacky, but it worked! I also love how, for this edition, they el...

Black and White Oreos

Black and White ! In December 2023, Nabisco first revealed the black and white Oreos. No grey area here! Maybe I am overly free-associating but for me, black and white conveys classy old movies, Transatlantic accents, noir detectives, and incredible style! Did Nabisco evoke such grandeur? Let's find out together! We are B and V and WE RATE OREOS! Creativity B-  OK, s o the idea was *almost* there for this. As a first impression, it sounds cool and the cookies themselves look classy as hell. But unfortunately, the execution wasn't all there to earn any points from me here. They could've taken the flavor and name a step (or two or three) further. V- The black and white Oreos are simple. We have vanilla cookie sandwiches with a swirl of white and chocolate creme on the inside. For full creativity points, Nabisco would need to incorporate the black-and-white concept into a grand theme! Maybe each package could have had fun facts about zebras (Nabisco should totally hire me as ...

Super Mario Oreos

Super Mario Let's a-go! In July 2023, Nabisco released Super Mario Oreos! The flavor is classic, while the cookies have designs with all your favorite Mario characters. Super Mario is one of the most iconic pop culture icons of all time. One thing I've never understood though-how does Bowser kidnap Princess Peach one day, and then go go-karting with her as a friend the next? The world may never know! As established Oreo bloggers, we have high standards. We hope that each Oreo captures the strange, colorful magic of the Mario universe. Let's find out together. We are B and V and WE RATE OREOS!   Creativity V-  The Mario movie was a summer hit! Mario started hopping on Wrigglers and Yoshis in  Super Mario World  in 1990 ,  and it's no surprise that Nabisco is hopping on this bandwagon now! And I love it. It's fun when people come together to enjoy a pop culture moment. Unfortunately, I can't give full creativity points for such blatant capitalism. Maybe I would be...
