Description
The yellow plastic package of golden Oreos contains 15.5 ounces (VERIFY) of cookies. The outside sandwich layers or actual cookies are golden or yellow color and with a vanilla flavor. The cream is chocolate and the exact same thickness of the traditional Oreo cookie filling. The package is pretty nifty as there is a peel back tag on the top of the package allows access to the cookies and peels back on or re-attaches to the package to reseal the cookies and keep them fresh. Good thinking Nabisco.
Taste
I somewhat had my doubts purchasing this cookie as I made the purchase decision based on sale price and I was looking for something interesting to put in the kids school lunches for dessert. The first taste of the cookie was a winner. The chocolate cream is decent enough though it appears to get somewhat lost in the delicious flavor of the vanilla cookie outside layers. When I eat these sandwich type cookies , I do not peel them apart so I captured the chocolate flavor at the very end which was pretty mild.
Price
The cost of one package on sale was $2.79 which is down from a heftier price of $3.19. The sale price still seems kind of high but then again these are Oreos and the manufacturer knows if you build it, they will come (regardless of price).
Overall Satisfaction
This cookie is an easy treat to knock down. The golden cookie alone is delicious and makes me want to try just the plain golden Oreos with the vanilla cream. The chocolate filling was “meh” in my opinion. I don’t think it really added too much to this cookie. The price of golden chocolate Oreos is a little pricey and I would most likely buy just the regular Oreos if I want to spend this price for a package of cookies. I would rate this Oreo variety an average buy and may or may not purchase again in the future.
