BLUEBERRY PIE OREO


If you can get past the purple-blue hue of the icing, which is the same color as a melted "Purple Mountain's Majesty" Crayola crayon, you'll enjoy this.  Provided you like blueberries, that is.

It really doesn't taste like a pie, though, but that's because this is a cookie.  Pies have that flaky crust thing going on, which pretty much defines them as a pie.  Unless you are a talking about a Hostess snack pie, that is...but that's a whole different can of beef fat.

The blueberry taste is just strong enough to be noticed without becoming obnoxious or overwhelming, and the sweetness of the creme filling is well-balanced by the cookie.  This flavor deserves to be a regular, along with lemon.  Hear that, Nabisco?  Skip the candy corn, root beer, punch and other oddities and just stick with fruit fillings.  Boysenberry, perhaps?

RATING: 4/5
