I would eat those before eating regular Oreos. Guess I’m not getting all the outrage… ---

If a cookie has ingested another cookie it may be a cause to be afraid of mad cow disease. In that case you should run around and scream. ---

Then again, if these were the ones that ate other cookies and came out victorious, maybe they’re the creme de la creme. Now all they need are the cookies de la cookies, and they’re good to go! ---

I still think cookies made with cookie butter are worse, somehow. E.g. [Cookie butter cookie recipe](http://allrecipes.com/recipe/cookie-butter-cookies/) ---

Am I the only one who looks at the box of cookies n cream ice cream to make sure it’s only got the wafers and **not** the sugar filling as an ingredient? ---

> [@Chronos](#): > > Personally, I don’t understand the appeal of “cookies and creme flavor” to begin with. I love cookies and creme ice cream, but that’s all about the texture: The cookie chunks soaked in the dairy mixture and frozen get that lovely firm-but-yielding quality to them. If you’re not getting that, then what’s the point? Just call it “chocolate”. I’d call them “light chocolate.” That’s what it really is. Or sometimes chocolate plus cookie dough flavor. ---

Then there’s “chocolatey” flavor. No doubt millions of dollars turn on that extra y. ---

I really miss the Coffee Creme filled Oreos from twelve or fifteen years ago. They were here such a short time before they got taken away from us. That was an Oreo with class. ---

> [@Stringbean](#): > > I would eat those before eating regular Oreos. > > Guess I’m not getting all the outrage… Cookies ‘n’ creme ice cream is Oreo-flavored ice cream. (Technically, ice cream with Oreos in it.) So Cookies ‘n’ creme Oreos are Oreo-flavored Oreos. The outrage is at the absurdity, not the taste. > [@drad\_dog](#): > > Am I the only one who looks at the box of cookies n cream ice cream to make sure it’s only got the wafers and **not** the sugar filling as an ingredient?

So I actually bought and tried these. They just taste like regular oreos to me. Only difference is a smaller number of cookies for the price. ---

That’s because you have to pay more for the cookie compression that allows Them to stuff a complete Oreo cookie into another Oreo cookie… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/cookies-and-creme-flavored-oreos/728358.md?page=1)
