I love Oreos. They're one of the great classic cookies of all-time. But I still don't understand this list.
Schneider Associates, along with comScore, IRI, and New Product magazine, asked 1000 people around the country what they thought the most memorable product launches of 2007 were. Some of the products on the list are obvious (the iPhone is #1, of course), but a couple of the food-related items didn't thrill me. They're both Oreo cookie-related: the Domino's Oreo Pizza and the Oreo Cakesters.
Really? The Oreo Pizza??

Oreos are so oh delicious, but alas, they are made with hydrogenated oil and trans fat.

That's really surprising, I've tried both the oreo pizza and the cakester and found them both pretty lacking. Ah well, no accounting for taste I suppose.

If you read further you notice that no one actually bought the oreo pizza. They probably felt too guilty to eat it.

Call me crazy, but I prefer Hydrox.

I was totally underwhelmed by the Oreo Cakester. No chocolate flavor at all. I predict those won't be on the shelves for long, so if you like them, buy now.

They said 'memorable', not 'appealing'.
An Oreo pizza takes junk food too far, even for American appetites.

For those who bemoan the reality of trans-fat-laden Oreos, get thee to Trader Joe's and pick up a box or two of their signature Joe-Joe's. Oreos without the guilt, plus right now you can snag the Candy Cane Joe-Joe's for a limited time (seasonal). You won't be disappointed!

Newman-o's (spelling?) are so much better than regular oreos. That said, I had the cakesters a while ago and thought they were tasty, like whoopie pies! mm! Too bad, like all junk food, they are so bad for you..

The filling is nothing more than whipped lard.
