- Oreo has released dozens of different flavors over the years in various parts of the world.
- Many limited edition flavors are only available for a couple months, while others get brought back or even made permanent flavors.
- From Hot and Spicy Cinnamon Oreos to Peanut Butter Oreos, there are flavors for every palette.
- We did a taste test of every Oreo flavor we could get our hands on, and ranked them from what we liked the least to the most.
Oreo has been an American staple for over a hundred years. In that time, it’s perfected its recipe, and branched out into different flavors.
Some flavors, like Peanut Butter Oreos, are an obvious creation for Oreo fans. Others, like Swedish Fish Oreos, confused (but sometimes delighted) consumers. Still others, like the Double Stuf Oreo, have become more popular than the original Oreo.
With so many different flavors out there and the flavor availability changing every month, I decided to try every flavor I could get my hands on between February and May of 2018. In those four months, I tried 27 different flavors, which I’ve reviewed and ranked below.
#27 Ice Cream Oreos

I picked these up at a local grocery store in Bali. When I brought them into the office, one of my coworkers told me she’d grown up on these in Thailand.
I could honestly write an entire article about this Oreo flavor alone. It advertises itself as “ice cream,” specifying “blueberry ice cream” in smaller letters below the logo. I wondered why the word “blueberry” wasn’t included in the name of the flavor, but after tasting it, I understood.
The cream was slightly fruity, but I quickly tasted something menthol-y that overtook my entire mouth. My theory is that this flavor is “ice cream” because it imitates the cold temperature of ice cream in your mouth. It tasted a bit like cough syrup.
#26 Lemon Oreos

I had at least two people tell me this was their favorite Oreo flavor. I was hoping for a tangy, citrusy experience. What I got was a dull, sweet lemon flavor.
#25 Mystery Oreos (limited edition)

A while back, Oreo revealed the mystery flavor is Fruity Pebbles. The cream tasted like the milk at the bottom of a bowl of Fruity Pebbles. If you’re into that, you’ll like them.
