THE CLASSIC OREO

Well at least I'm covering the basics right off...and this is what I had on hand. Which is amazing considering the life-span on an OREO in this house is short if my husband knows they are around. That being said...

"LET THE RATING BEGIN!"
My cookie of choice this time will be:

THE CLASSIC
CHOCOLATE CREME FILLED OREO
The average rating that this cookie gets is:
"5 COOKIE KISSES"

Here are the details:

VALUE = 5 COOKIE KISSES ***** - Regular priced these cookies are about $4.00 + tax. There are three rows or chocolatety goodness! These cookies have that new "Easy Pull - Snack n' Seal" container designed to keep my cookies fresh for eating later...which is never a problem in this house!

PACKAGING = 5 COOKIE KISSES ***** - Who doesn't know what an OREO package looks like?!? and...the handy "Snack n' Seal" tab is nice - I don't have to take them out and put them in a container to keep them fresh.. The packaging is pretty standard and has been the same as long as I can remember...keeps the cookies from crumbling and not too much plastic or paper waste.

GIVING BACK = 0 COOKIE KISSES! (boo! hissss!) As I mentioned before...I went to Nabisco's website and took a look around and didn't see that they are actively involved in any sort of "GIVING BACK" promotions right now.....but, in light of the fact thatOREOS have been the best selling cookie of the 20th century and have been around since 1912...I will cut them a break!

BUT...if we really want to find a way to give them some "cookie points" we can mention that they do make a SUGAR FREE OREO, a LOW FAT & a LOW CALORIE COOKIE! I guess that we could give them some credit for helping fight the "battle of the bulge!"

TASTE = 5 COOKIE KISSES ***** - Of course...OREOS are wonderful! One of my favorite things is the wonderful aroma that drifts up to your nose as soon as you open the package! All your senses are involved and that is a GREAT thing!

NOTES: There is nothing like a tall glass of cold milk and an OREO cookie! EVERYONE should have the experience...it is a CLASSIC COOKIE!

...and honestly, who of us doesn't know the O.R.E.O jingle - or some version of it!

"O-O-O-Ice Cold Milk and an OREO Cookie, They forever go together, What a Classic Combination, when a dark, delicious Cookie Meets an icy, cold sensation, like the one and only, Creamy, Crunchy, Choc-o-late, O-R-E-O!"

COOKIE ON!
