Apparently these Oreos are only being sold at Target, starting 9/10.

Because this is a forum that once made three topics a week about Taco Bell. After Cohen left, having good taste stopped being cool so those with it go into hiding and the classless plebs rule the food topics.

I chalked this up to ironic humor.

It reminds me of my childhood, mainly the day after Halloween when my mom would secretly buy discount candy and give it to us to make up for not letting us trick r treat. So while I grew up hating Halloween, the day after was always a holiday in my heart

Quote
Candy corn sucks because it sucks to eat, because the little nuclear-warhead-shaped kernels taste like a particularly sadistic circle of hell in which all your favorite sensory experiences—the chewiness of caramel, the delicate sophisticated cordiality of vanilla—are corrupted into horrible mockeries of themselves, and when you taste them they worm their way into your unconscious mind and warp even the memory of the authentic experience and you can't taste or smell or think about or remember anything else because they're all there is and also they gave you the runs.

....

It'll be a great relief to you, then, to know that this is not what the wise folks at Nabisco have done, because the "Candy Corn Oreo" tastes nothing like candy corn whatsoever. What it tastes like is vanilla buttercream frosting, and, friends, it is goddamn delicious.

what the fuck is this shit :maf

I can confirm these are awesome. My cousin gave me some, and I wound up taking a couple more when he wasn't looking. Stealing from children :smug
