Nabisco Red Velvet Oreo


The internet rumor mill should be happy, a couple months ago my Facebook feed (why yes, I am over thirty, so I still use Facebook) exploded with people asking me if Red Velvet Oreos were real and if I had found them. Much like finding Bigfoot and finding out that Bigfoot knows the cure for foot cancer, the wait was totally worth it. They are awesome!  The reddish cookie tastes of cocoa and the cream cheese filling is rich and sweet.   They are truly wonderful together. In fact the only disappointing thing is that they come in a smaller container, 10.7 ounces verses the 12.2 that standard oreos come in. Kind of like finding out Bigfoot only wears a size 11 shoe. Does Oreo not think we can handle a full size package? Since they came out for Valentine's Day is smaller somehow more romantic? I'm pretty sure most women would disagree with that. Regardless, once Valentine's season is over there are going to be a lot of heartbroken people. 

Found at Safeway.
