New Oreo Alert: Key Lime

     Last week I went to the supermarket to pick up some groceries and saw these on a display at the entrance of the store.  Naturally I got distracted, forgot what I was going to buy, and spent $30 on snacks.
     I like the graham cracker cookie.  That's a nice touch.  The key lime creme, not so much.  It's a very overpowering flavor.  The flavor sits on your tongue long after you're done chewing and have moved on to your next activity.  So if you're a big key lime fan you can have a few and enjoy them.  I'm not so I'm only having 2 or 3 at a time and dealing with the aftertaste each time.

     Now, I'm not really a key lime pie kinda guy.  But that's because I wasn't raised in a barn.  Honestly I don't know where the "key" part comes from.  All I know is this is another overly processed attempt from Oreo that's sold at full price for a 2/3 size packaging.  Though I guess buying this will piss off Trump (and Christie) if you're into that kinda thing.  4/10.

PS- 72 years ago (from when I'm writing this) my grandfather stormed the beaches at Normandy.  His squad said it was the only time they had ever seen him run.  I'm honoring his legacy by blogging about cookies.  Though to be fair he was a big cookie fan, so it's probably not the worst way to do it.
