It turns out I can get enough of the Selena Gomez Oreos
The latest celebration collab cookie is OK — but is it in the wrong season?

Oreo needs to find a better naming convention for its growing line of celebrity collaborations.
We got Post Malone Oreos back in February. And now Selena Gomez Oreo Cookies have hit the shelves.
Couldn’t we have called them Post Maloreos? Selena Goreos?
I dunno. Maybe that’s all a bad idea. (They can’t all have a perfect name like S’moreos.)
Anyways, if you’re a Selena Gomez fan and an Oreo fan, you’re in luck. The singer/actor’s collaboration with Nabisco was released this month, fulfilling what was apparently a lifelong dream of hers.
“Making my own OREO cookie was a lot of fun. I grew up loving them, so being able to be a part of the process was a full-circle moment,” Gomez said in a statement announcing her Oreo cookies. “I wanted to find a way for it to feel comforting and have a bit of nostalgia from my childhood. The cinnamon flavor gives it this horchata feel, and I'm excited for my fans to try it.”
As Gomez mentioned, the Selena Gomez Oreos are “inspired by her love of horchata” and “include a layer of chocolate & cinnamon flavor creme atop a layer of sweetened condensed milk flavor creme with cinnamon sugar inclusions, all sandwiched between two chocolate cinnamon flavored wafers.”
Will these cookies pass the test for Selenators?

Where I found it
My Harris Teeter had an endcap with both the traditional 10.68 oz. package of Selena Gomez Oreos and the 10-count box where you get two cookies packaged together. To mix things up, I went with the snack packs.
What I paid
The box of two-cookies packs was $5.99.

My thoughts
The Selena Gomez Oreos come in six different designs. That seems like a lot, but the Post Malone Oreos boasted a whopping NINE different cookie designs. But the Selena Gomez Oreos have a secret that the Post Malone ones didn’t. The “exclusive signature cookie” design reportedly unlocks a remix of “I Can’t Get Enough” if you scan it. (Is this like a QR code kind of thing?)

My first two-pack of Selena Gomez Oreos didn’t include the signature edition, so I guess I won’t get to hear that song. Now I’m being gate kept by a cookie ...

The two creme layers of the Selena Gomez Oreo — one a combo of chocolate and cinnamon, the other sweetened condensed milk flavor creme with cinnamon sugar inclusions — are pretty defined. Oreo seems to be doing the double-creme thing with more of these special flavors.

When it comes to the taste of the Selena Gomez Oreo, my first reaction was that this is a gingerbread-flavored Oreo that just happens to be in the traditional chocolate Oreo cookie.
If I’m putting this up against the “would I buy this over the normal Double Stuf version of an Oreo?” test, the answer is no.
Final verdict: SKIP
Maybe Oreo should’ve held on to this collaboration until Christmas? The quick taste test that my wife did (conducted while she was just trying to read her book) had her come to the same conclusion. This is a Christmas-y Oreo.
