Limited Edition Graveyard - Oreo Edition

Oreo is in their "Simpsons did it," era. In today's post I have 4 limited edition flavors, but each one is similar to a previous offering. Sure, there are a few new twists and turns, like new designs or popping candy, but nothing here is new-new.

Let's see if these flavors improve upon the past, or if they fade into tastebud oblivion.

Dirt Cake Oreos - The 2-toned filling is creamy and chocolatey, but it isn't unique. Previous chocolate cremes, like Brownie Batter or Ultimate Chocolate, are quite similar. It's good, especially with milk, but it is not giving me "pudding." The cookies have colorful flecks meant to mimic gummy worms but they don't bring anything to the table. This is your classic chocolate cookie base with a chocolate filling. I like these, and used them in brownie batter, but they're too similar to previous versions to be memorable. 3/5

Space Dunk Oreos - We have a chocolate cookie, "cosmic" creme and popping candy. "Cosmic" means marshmallow, and I love marshmallow, so I was very excited for this one. It does have that sweet vanilla flavoring, kind of similar to cereal marshmallows, and the texture of the filling is softer than usual. There's more filling than usual, but not enough creme to achieve Double Stuffed status. They pair well with milk, and I appreciate the unique space designs on the packaging and cookies, but this is another Oreo that tastes like flavors they've already released. And the popping candy novelty is fun, but if I use them in baked goods you would never notice it. Another 3/5

Sour Patch Kid Oreos - I grabbed this because my little cousins love all things sour and found the concept intriguing. Meanwhile, I was prepared for this to be disgusting. Sour candy is great. Oreos are great. Combined?  Doesn't sound great. Opened, I was pleasantly surprised. The aroma is bright, tangy, and it reminds me of citrus fruit. When I took a bite, they actually tasted a lot like the Fruity Cereal Oreos from a few years back. Just more tangy and tart. I ended up liking these a lot more than I thought I would. There is a sour candy aftertaste, but for the most part, this tastes similar to the Discontinued Fruity Cereal Oreos. 3.5/5

Post Mal-OReos - Post Malone themed Oreos. An unexpected collaboration, but the flavors sound good. It features 9 different designs, one Golden cookie, one classic chocolate cookie, and the filling is split between cookie butter and salted caramel. Again, these are both flavors that Oreo has done in the past, we had a Cookie Butter Oreo, and a salted caramel Brownie Oreo. In fact, this new cookie seems like a mash-up of those specific flavors. Cookie Butter used the golden cookie, Salted Caramel Brownie used chocolate. 

Giving this a try, there is some crunchy texturing, presumably from the salt, and sweet and nutty caramel notes and a slightly Biscoff-like flavoring. It's pretty darn good! I have salty, sweet, spiced, and a crispy chocolatey cookie. The Golden Oreo is the only "meh" inclusion, but I think if both cookies were chocolate it would overshadow the flavors of the creme. It pairs wonderfully with milk and it will make awesome inclusions in brownies for Easter. I already bought a second pack! 4.5/5 (Best of the post...malone!)
