Holiday Oreos

 Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays! We hope our readers had a wonderful Christmas, Boxing Day, Hannukah, Kwanza, Solstice, New Year, and any holidays we missed! No matter what we celebrate, we all share a passion for Oreos! This month, we are rating the 2024 holiday Oreos. We hope you enjoy them. We are B and V and WE RATE OREOS!

Creativity

B- They came in hot with the creativity combo here. We have the holiday shapes themselves, plus the little cut-outs where the icing peeks thru, AND two different colored creams. 

V- I love the cookie designs and the red and green creme. It's just a classic flavor, and I think they should have done peppermint or something. Even though it isn't super creative, I appreciate how the holiday classic Oreos always taste fresher than the regular classic ones. I went to Reddit for some confirmation bias and found that the world agrees! Maybe they have a shorter shelf life? It's a mystery! 

Execution

V- They are beautifully executed! Holiday Oreos are a better-tasting, cooler-looking classic Oreo! 

B- It definitely executes exactly as it says on the packaging: " Festive Colored Creme: Same Great Taste!"



Does it Sparkle?

B- They are pretty darn cute... And the fact that they come individually wrapped makes them a perfect stocking stuffer for the whole family!

V- Yes! These are so cool! They have little reindeer ones with a hole in the top cookie, so the red layer underneath shows up as the red nose! There are also snowmen, gingerbread, and penguin designs. Each design is so detailed. The package with the Oreo reindeer guiding the sleigh is adorable and I can't wait for Netflix to make an entire three-part movie out of the concept. 

Pairing

V- Keep it simple and just have it with milk (it's a classic Oreo, after all) or maybe some red wine while we connect with friends and family over the holidays. 

B- You mean *mulled* red wine of course.

Buy Again

B- If I hadn't decided to become gluten-free in 2025 then probably LOL

V- I'll certainly buy whatever holiday Oreos come out next year!

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...

Star Wars Oreos

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...

Dirt Cake Oreos

Dirty, Flirty, and Thriving  Nabisco officially released dirt cake Oreos on March 4th, 2024. Proper dirt cake (if there is such a thing) consists of layers of chocolate pudding, crushed Oreos, and gummy worms on top. It's a beloved treat that frequents children's birthday parties. I've scoured the internet, and the great dirt cake's origins are tragically unclear. It is likely midwestern, and it probably manifested sometime in the 1980s. Although the dirt cake's past is uncertain, the future of this beloved treat is bright! Dirt cake is still guaranteed to bring a little weirdness to any party. We can't wait to try these! We are B and V and WE RATE OREOS! Creativity B- Yes, definitely creative. This is another dessert you don't see done too often! On that note, I do wonder why people stopped making dirt cake an acceptable food after grade school. Like, please bring this back as a party or potluck dish - it's delish! V-  Full creativity points! The dirt c...
