One of my all-time favorite cereals is coming back!!!

I was so bummed when these were pulled from store shelves, but since company have been in the mood for throwbacks, maybe I'll have a bowl of Oreo Os and wash it down with some Crystal Pepsi...I'm not often excited for a special release of a cereal, but for this one that has since only been available in South Korea, I'm super excited!

  • Aw man I loved those! Hopefully they find their way to Canada!



    (If not, any chance you might send one my way?  )
  • Does anybody just set these in a bowl at parties as a snack food? Might be better than pretzels, cheetos or sun chips.
  • Seems to be like Crystal Pepsi has been removed in favor of Dew-S-A and Pepsi Fire though....



    I actually hated Oreo O's as a kid, though I bought them many times, because they were Oreo after all. They cut up your mouth too much. They should have been the same shape and consistancy as Reese's Puffs, just Oreo flavored. Never liked the jagged white chunks.
  • I've been hoping with the retro craze that Nintendo cereal would come back out. I guess it isn't going to happen though.

    I had this problem with a lot of cereals when I was younger.  This, Cap'n Crunch, Cookie Crisps, and the Reeses cereal.  My child-brain couldn't quite conquer this conundrum though, and I would just continue to eat them despite the pain, haha!  It was a constant battle of not having soggy cereal, but not cutting up my mouth.

    The Ninja Turtles cereal would be cool. Disgusting, but cool.
  • Oh yeah, I forgot about Turtle cereal. I had plastic turtle bowls as a kid that came from that cereal.

    Those bowls were awesome. And that "special" appearance they took on after 1000 cycles in the dishwasher...priceless.
  • Lol nice, I feel like I saw those on a shelf back in the day. Maybe just dreaming though
  • I know that this is supposed to be the greatest cereal ever. Looking forward to trying it.
  • Go get your diabetes testing supplies ahead of time.

    Probably did! They were great!
  • Yes! I remember Oreo-Os!! This was one of my favorites when I was a kid as well, it was one of the rare chocolatey cereals my mom would buy.



    It looks like it's exclusive to Walmart for the first 3 months. I'll have to pick up a box!
  • This is why North America has destroyed the world.
  • Wow, I had no idea those had been off shelves for 10 years. There's still a box on top of the cabinets at my mother in law's house, lol, I guess I now know why nobody has polished off the box to date.
  • I remember those. My cousin was obsessed with them, though I thought they fell into the category of "good, not great."



    Now if you want to talk about a truly great junk food that was cruelly taken from us, then I present to you, Wahoos.

  • What an awkward name to say....Oreo-o's.....



    It is similar to saying hey nice "The Beatles" shirt.
  • You guys do know that they've already been out for awhile, just under a different name?



    They're in the "budget bag" cereal area. Malt-O-Meal sells it and it's called Cookies & Cream. Malt-O-Meal is part of Post so it tastes exactly the same. Trust me I've been buying those huge bags for awhile now.
  • I LOVED these but they were even better when they added marshmallows.



    They definitely destroyed my mouth as well
  • Oh man, I was too late for those but I loved Cookie Crisp growing up, we had a place in the states and so I use to get them every other weekend.
  • I'm excited too, I loved Oreo O's.

    Uh huh...they're made by the same people...I mean they're an offshoot of the original main company but they still have the original recipe. I think you're getting fooled by your brain. Brain sees it comes in a "budget bag" thus it'll taste worse then the stuff in the boxes. If you can do a blind tasting...litterally blindfold yourself and have someone give you two bowls, one with the "budget" stuff and one with the box stuff and see if you can tell the difference then using only taste. I bet you won't be able to but who knows.

    I'll admit I haven't tried the Malt-O-Meal version since Post bought them in 2015...I just remembered having them after Oreo-Os were originally discontinued and they didn't taste the same to me.
  • I was hoping this would be Pac-Man cereal. #disappointed

  • I'd rather see gaming cereals like the Nintendo Cereal or Pacman honestly. I want those and the Ninja Turtle pies with the green pudding in them.
  • If you haven't gotten some yet, it is at Walmart now...freaking delicious
