New Swedish Fish Oreos Are Not For The Faint Of Heart

We gladly embraced the Lemon Oreo . And the Watermelon Oreo . We even tasted the Fruit Punch Oreo , for goodness sake!

But a Swedish Fish Oreo  is simply far too much to handle.

Yup, Nabisco confirmed this week that Swedish Fish Oreos are indeed its latest limited-edition flavor , sold only in Kroger grocery stores. Those who have gotten their hands on the flavor confirm they look as wild as they sound: 

If you’re fishing around for a snack, then this probably isn’t the best choice.

The new Oreo has a “potent” flavor with a “slightly off-putting finish of waxy gelatin ,” said one taster on The Impulsive Buy.

“I couldn’t get the cough syrup taste out of my mouth ,” said another from Thrillist. 

Maybe it’s a good thing these Oreos have limited availability: They’ll be sold only in Kroger stores  for a limited time. Of course if you’re feeling adventurous, you can always buy them on the black er, is that red? market online . 

We’ll stick to our homemade chocolate oat cookies  for now, thank you.
