Can't you at least wait to try it before you crap on it?
This sounds serious
What next? Twinkies?
Make the switch to Hydrox.
Bwahahahahaa!!!
Why can't they just keep the original version and make a new and improved one? Anyone that is an Oreo-eater to begin with doesn't give a rats rump about what's on the nutrition label. Yeesh.
Another Capitalist company rolls belly up to The Food Police.
I can't eat the other kind so this is kind of important, and people knowledgeable in Oreo marketing might know the answer.
Ya know, I think they already changed the cookie part and didn't tell anyone. Doesn't seem to stand up to dunking the way it did 30 or 40 yrs ago.
I'd rather see them eliminate high-fructose corn syrup than worry about trans-fatty acids.
The f'ing food nazis are really starting to piss me off! You eat Oreos because of the way they taste, not because they're good for you.
Oxymoronic statement. Since when were cookies supposed to be a source of nutrition?
The original formula contained LARD - a naturally occurring saturated fat that makes wonderful cookies and is nutritionally superior to the artificial hydrogenated oils they currently use. The change to the trans-fat-laden hydrogenated oils is because the P.C. nutritionists thought any veggie oil was "better" than any animal fat. They were wrong.
So I'm with you on sticking with the *original* recipe.

They bent to the Trial Lawyers.
A few years ago, the TLA had a conference in Massachusetts. They were planning the junk food shake down.
Kraft first to fall?
Funny you should post this. I went to Arby's today and I SWEAR the Arby's sauce is NOT THE SAME! It tasted way sweeter with no tang.
Ruined my whole Friday!! :)
I hate change.

Oreo Cookies
COOKIE WAFERS:
1 (18.25 oz) box Dark Fudge Cake Mix
1/3 cup water
2 tablespoons shortening
CREME FILLING:
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup shortening (no substitution)
3 tablespoons hot water
Preheat oven to 325F. Blend all ingredients; then knead with your hands until it is pliable like dough. Form dough into 3/4 inch balls and press flat, 1/2 inch apart on greased cookie sheets. Bottom of a glass works nice for this. Bake 4 to 6 minutes or until cookies are crunchy. I should think you could refrigerate the dough in cylinder shaped rolls for a couple of hours and slice 1/8 inch thick, as well.
Let cookies cool on sheets.
Combine filling ingredients and mix well. Form into balls about 1/2 to 3/4 inch in diameter, again using your hands. Sandwich one filling in the center of two cookies and carefully press down until the filling spreads almost to the edge.

Years ago I wrote a steaming letter to the bakers of Hydrox cookies complaining about the change in their recipe. The new Hydrox cookies lacked the distinctive flavor I liked.
A vice president wrote me a nice and fairly long letter, signed in real ink, describing the changes and why....The reason was that the public wanted Oreos and now Hydrox was like Oreo.
Hydrox coookies are no more.
It also appears they took the salt out of "saltines" also. Hold the cracker sideways....no salt on top. Little if any salt inside, either. They taste exactly like communion wafers.
I looked on Publix's shelf, and all the cracker boxes now state the same thing and some say "low sodium". There's no choice now. Eat these tasteless squares of crispy shirt cardboard with your soup or switch to (what?)
(....they break and crumble real easy now, to boot)
