Oreo Fans Divided After Brand Unveils New Red-And-Green Holiday Cookies For 2024
"Cute!!!!" one fan wrote as another added: "We need this," with a heart-eyes emoji. An additional user commented: "Perfect for the holiday." Others, however, were disappointed, as someone noted: "if only they were peppermint." One other chimed in: "Nooooo! Please say they're still doing the original Christmas ones they've done for years?"
For the first time in history, an Oreo cookie will boast two layers of double stuf filling in festive red and green, stacked together. The new Oreo Festive Cookie collection also debuts five holiday-themed designs etched onto the chocolate wafers, showcasing charming characters such as a Candy Cane, Gingerbread Man, Penguin, Snowman, and Rudolph.
Every Christmas-themed cookie boasts an ingenious cut-out detail that allows the red icing to shine through, as reported by AllRecipes. Whether it's Rudolph the Reindeer's iconic nose, the penguin’s adorable bowtie, or the gingerbread man’s charming heart, these delightful touches add a festive flair. Although the "cute" new cookies garnered much admiration on social media, some fans expressed a desire for a festive flavor, such as peppermint, to complement their holiday appearance.
Regardless, the recently shared Oreo cookies will come in three different packaging choices: four-count laydown bags, 45-count stand-up bags, and king-size packs with four pieces each. Every cookie will be packaged separately in its own wrapper. If you want to try them now and celebrate the holiday season early, you might start spotting them at Target and Walmart later this week!
