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
