Sure, that’s not a lot of money, but it’s more than I’d expect under this specific scenario. Last summer, [it was Mountain Dew Summer Freeze Zero Sugar](https://www.theomnicosm.com/wash-down-those-fireworks-with-a-cold-mountain-dew-summer-freeze-zero-sugar/). (Which you can check out in my recently released [rankings of eight different Mountain Dew Zero Sugar flavors](https://www.theomnicosm.com/snackology-ranking-mountain-dew-zero-sugar/).) For this summer, the Bomb Pop has made the jump to yet another format, with **Oreo Firecracker Pop cookies** hitting shelves starting on Monday. According to Oreo, this limited-edition flavor is “inspired by the beloved nostalgic frozen treat,” packing a “triple-flavor punch with blue raspberry, lemon and cherry flavor creme sandwiched between two classic golden cookies.” I’ve reviewed a lot of Oreo cookies at **Snackology**, but it’s not often that we get a variety that’s fruit-forward in a non-pie way. Will Firecracker Pop Oreos live up to the lofty summer standard set almost a decade ago by Fruity Crisp Oreos? ![Snackology](https://storage.ghost.io/c/f4/8b/f48be8ca-23c6-4d81-b0cf-da2fb0785911/content/images/size/w1600/2026/02/snackology-substack-logo-new-1.png) Welcome to Snackology!

No matter how many times I run into this phenomenon with cookies or soda, it always impresses me. The food scientists at these companies pull off magic. Fire Cracker Pop Oreos use the traditional golden cookie as their base, layer blue raspberry-, lemon- and cherry-flavored creme in between the cookies. I’m not sure where this flavor would fall on the stuf index. Do the three layers make them a Double Stuf? A Mega Stuf? They’re definitely not a Most Stuf. It would be easy to assume that Oreo would just create a multi-colored creme that blended the three flavors that go into a Bomb Pop, but they really did create three different creme flavors for these cookies. The cherry is subtle, but the blue raspberry came into play early, and I was surprised at how clearly the lemon popped through at the end of my first taste test. Oreo Firecracker Pop cookies aren’t the kind of Oreo that you would eat every day or even all year around. But they’re the perfect cookie for summer. Until Oreo finally brings back Fruity Crisp, that is ... ### Snack Score 4.0 Out of 5 ![Oreo Firecracker Pop cookies](https://storage.ghost.io/c/f4/8b/f48be8ca-23c6-4d81-b0cf-da2fb0785911/content/images/2026/05/IMG_8195.jpeg) Oreo Firecracker Pop cookies [ 🍪 About the Snack Score → ](https://www.theomnicosm.com/snackology-snack-score/) *Oreo Firecracker Pop cookies were provided to *Snackology* for this independent review.* ![Snackology](https://storage.ghost.io/c/f4/8b/f48be8ca-23c6-4d81-b0cf-da2fb0785911/content/images/size/w1600/2026/02/snackology-substack-logo-new-1.png) Snackology is a publication of **The Omnicosm**.
