Oreo's latest twist on its best-selling cookie: a red velvet makeover in time for Valentine's Day.

The latest limited edition Oreos, with red cookies and cream cheese-flavored filling, are set to hit shelves in early February. The red velvet variety marks the first time Oreo has had a new cookie color since 2004, when the Golden Oreo debuted.

Red velvet cake has been around for decades. The cake is distinguished by its dark red color and often has a cream cheese icing. The flavor has gained a following in recent years in everything from cupcakes to whoopee pies.

"It's something that's classic, but I think what people have done in the last several years is reinterpret it," said Janda Lukin, senior director of Oreo North America, a unit of Deerfield-based Mondelez International.

We don’t patronize Nabisco because of their support for the gay movement.

Is it real Red Velvet made from the Red Bug Guts?

You shouldn’t let gays control how you live. Basically they now own you because you let them.

[Kirkwood]

Sorry I didn’t mean that for you, but for those who are letting gays push them around.

[originalbuckeye]

Will definitely be on our grocery list!

[MrB]

That really doesn’t sound very good there...
Oreos are not supposed to be “fruity”.

[Gay State Conservative]

Bring back Hydrox cookies!

[PROCON]

So I support the gay agenda because I like a cookie? OK...

[PROCON]

BS, they had a gay-rainbow cookie this decade. Packed with funny-stuff.

We all have to make sacrifices in this brave new world. :^)

Yes, Hydrox ceased production but Oreos are knockoffs of Hydrox, which came first.
