Mondelez has become a culinary wizard when it comes to creating their out-of-bounds OREO flavors. The two newest ones, Hot Chicken and Wasabi OREOs, bring some fire in terms of flavor, but are also catching a bunch of heat from the Internet.
Hot Chicken Wing And Wasabi Oreos Exist And Folks Are Freaking Out
Mondelez announced in an official tweet that the new OREO flavors were released in China, but they can also apparently be tracked down on eBay, according to The Junk Food Aisle. Still, not everyone is keen on trying these cookies for themselves, as Twitter seems to currently suggest.
The spicy flavors may not sound like the best combo with OREOs, but they have some potential to work. Kit Kat has already had a wasabi flavor going for a while in Japan and it’s gotten mostly positive feedback. Hot chicken combined with sweet stuff is a little out of left field, sure, but maybe it’ll resonate like the sweet-spicy combo of chicken and waffles.
Regardless, these buzzworthy OREOs are worth the attempt to secure to at least say you got a taste. Or you could just switch the hot chicken OREOs in with some Halloween-themed ones as an epic prank for trick-or-treaters.
Try these sweet OREO desserts.
Oreo CupcakesA tasty tribute to Oreo cookies, these Oreo cupcakes are made from scratch. But if you want to start with a boxed vanilla cake mix, you'll get to the gooey cupcake goodness that much more quickly!
