Oreo Brings New Flavors Out For Summer – And We’re Conflicted
I’m actually not conflicted. I sampled the new flavors of a cookie that needs no improvement. Here’s my experience: But what about these new chili or cheese Oreo type cookie?…
CHICAGO, IL – DECEMBER 27: In this photo illustration, milk and cookies sit on a counter on December 27, 2012 in Chicago, Illinois. Milk prices could spike to $6 to $8 a gallon in January if lawmakers fail to reach a “fiscal cliff” deal and renew a Farm Bill that’s been in place since 2008 and sets the price at which the government buys milk.

Here's my experience:
<em>"Pina Colada" flavor. Strike one: they're thin. Strike two: way. too. sweet. Nope</em>.
<em>"Cherry Cola flava flav". Hell no. Couldn't even finish it. Even the added 'pop rocks' didn't help as they crackled unexpectedly in my throat. They smelled nice in the package but....gross.</em>
<em>"Kettle Corn"? Tastes like their vanilla cookies with too much maple flavoring. And again, too sweet so, nope.</em>
But what about these new chili or cheese Oreo type cookie? I'd give 'em a try! Would you?

We don't mean to be haters... We just think that some flavors should not be messed with.
Personally, I like normal Oreo Cookies. I like the mint ones too (And even more so, Trader Joe's Peppermint Joe Joe's). But when it came to Red Velvet Oreos, I started to wonder when we'd cross the line.
Well, the newest 3 flavors for Oreo happen to be from the #MyOreoCreation contest, and it's winners are "Cherry Cola," “Piña Colada,” and "Kettle Corn."
Now, I am an adventurous person. I've eaten squid, okay. I try things, so I'm not someone that's got a "Wonderbread" form of taste, but Kettle Corn? "Piña Colada?" Why?!
Paste Magazine tried the flavors and shared that the Kettle Corn Oreos might as well have been a Golden Oreo, because it's not much different, and they really hated on the Cherry Cola ones, which I honestly thought would be the most palatable out of the three.
Maybe I'm just getting old, but let's see what you guys think...
