This is NOT Mary Anne vs. Ginger.

Oreos, hands down. Despite their fag Oreos.

I honest to goodness can’t tell the difference, when I was younger my parents use to purchase whatever happened to be on sale and I never even realized there were two different brands until one day I got two cookies out of a empty pack and a couple more out of a fresh pack and noticed one said “Hydrox” and one “Oreo”.

Growing up, we all reminded Mom to buy Hydrox, instead of Oreos, when she did the shopping — Hydrox were our favorites, by far! Yummy!

Hydrox tasted like manufactured oily goo.

Oreo USED TO BE awesome delisciousmess. Now it also tastes like manufactured oily goo.

There is probably negative nutritional value in eating them.

Since Oreos are now offshored and declining in quality, perhaps Hydrox should just make a better cookie.

If they could make a chocolate sandwich cookie that actually contained chocolate and tasted like chocolate, they might be onto something.

I had to stop buying Oreo years ago because the only way I would stop eating them was when the package was empty.

Maybe I should try Hydrox.

Let me wrest my fingers from my blue Cookie Monster costume and clear this up.

I don’t care whether Hydrox are half the price of Oreo’s, I will always find the Oreo’s, as they’re by far the better combination of texture and taste.

Always preferred the Hydrox. Had it first as a kid in Queens NY.

I grew up in a Hydrox home and would gladly buy them again if I could find them.

That’s an old story in the retail grocery biz.
Jell-O and Campbells Soup produce many flavors that
hardly anyone buys, specifically to crowd their competitors
off the shelf.

Odd that Mondolez does this but let’s Cheez-It get by with crowding out their superior cheese cracker Cheese-Nips.

Cheese-Nips make a great snack with peanut butter!

I actually wrote Nabisco once pleading that now was the time to bring back Kettle Cookies. The wrote back with the meanest form reply that listed their cookies that were no longer made and said that they were permanently discontinued. The tone of the letter was snotty and this was before they went Mexican.
