If 'better' refers to taste, the answer is simple: an Oreo.
- 11235813213455 6y agoFor someone who has not eaten any chocolate bar or biscuits since 10 years, I'm not sure to like their taste anymore like I used to (unfortunately)
- colordrops 6y agoTaste is in the tongue of the beholder.
- jacobush 6y agoFor someone who really likes sweet chocolate etc, an Oreo is too vulgar even too me. I feel sick to my stomach. Powdery sugar with something brown in it.
- octokatt 6y agoI still miss Hydrox cookies.
- nemosaltat 6y agoYou can (could?) order them online. I ordered some last year and found them to be “crisper” than Oreos. In a side-by-side taste test, my family agreed that fresh Oreos seemed stale by comparison.
- SketchySeaBeast 6y agoAre there different Oeros? What you described doesn't seem to fit the description of a the North American Oreo. It's artificial sweetened shortening wedged between two chocolaty "wafers". No powdery sugar involved.
- ebg13 6y ago> Are there different Oreos? In fact... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Oreo_varieties https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Oreo_varieties But I suspect they are describing the texture of the classic wafer when chewed, which does seem like an apt description.
- SketchySeaBeast 6y agoOh yeah there's a ton of varieties, but I was wondering if there was a regional thing here where the products are totally different even with the same name, like chips.
- jacobush 6y agoNo I mean the classic (I assume) dark wafer with white shortening in it. Now I also remembered how vile the white stuff is too - it kind of sticks to your upper palate. There are sugar overloaded competitors [0], which are pretty shameless too. But at least they taste like an honest lot of sugar, flavouring, fat and flour. I feel bad for kids getting fat on Oreos. If you get fat on real sweets, at least you taste something decent in the process. Oreos are vile. I have given them the benefit of a doubt! I have even tried putting them in ice cream, thinking maybe they are just too sweet, and that their sweetness will fit better together with something else not as intensely sweet. But no, the ice cream just diluted the Oreo vile-ness. The perverted, gone-one-step-too-far industrial wiff of Cthulhu was still in there, carefully masking the fun from each spoonful of icecream.

- SketchySeaBeast 6y agoThat's a lot of vitriol for a tasty vegan snack.
- jacobush 6y agoUranium, selected from the finest natural ore, carefully enriched, is vegan too. :)
- foxyv 6y agoOreos taste like sugar, chalk and chocolate. I used to love them but, the more I desensitize to the insane sugar levels in these types of food, they have become kind of nasty. They make me feel horrible and taste funny.
- jacobush 6y agoActually I can't detect much chocolate taste. Sugar and chalk.
- senectus1 6y agough, no idea how anyone can "enjoy" these. much like things like Twinkies and Peeps... I dont understand how they became so popular with the american taste buds. I feel ill after eating one Twinkie, Peeps are so sweet they make my teeth hurt. (Australian here)
