That sounds fantastic but I'm not buying more sweets for the home until I am down to my target weight on Weight Watchers.

One thing I totally agree with this article on is that American Cadbury bars are junk compared to the British originals. Hershey (here in the States) ruined them! One of our local supermarkets has a small selection of British food and I am going to check out the "digestive biscuits". Also, I agree with many that sugar is addictive. One day I will work on that addiction. But not just yet.bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589840841266507266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-12253454822183215702013-06-21T09:20:52.149-04:002013-06-21T09:20:52.149-04:00The lemon Oreos are a big hit in our house, but, l...The lemon Oreos are a big hit in our house, but, like you, I wish they came with a chocolate cookie. (Gertrude Hawk has a dark chocolate coated lemon Smidgen, BTW--YUM!)<br /><br />We all like the reverse Oreos, with chocolate cream and vanilla cookies. They called them "Uh-Oh Oreos" when they first came out. My daughter, the sugar addict, likes the current "Sure-Bert" (sherbet) Oreos, but I find them too sweet. <br /><br />I think I would not like watermelon, but raspberry or orange sound good!Kimberley at Cosmos and Cleomehttp://cosmosandcleome.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-81769539319972909132013-06-21T08:18:11.034-04:002013-06-21T08:18:11.034-04:00I've never eaten one.

I once read that sugar is something we should avoid. However, (disclaimer) I eat a teaspoon of honey on my cereal.

Don't mess with the chocolate, unless you're just adding more chocolate. I'd sign a petition to bring the triple chocolate variety up from our southern neighbors, though. :)Eula McLeodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09271036127051327841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-16935530469693687912013-06-20T17:24:13.012-04:002013-06-20T17:24:13.012-04:00Sounds delicious!Sounds delicious!thewritemamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12841969597672790568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-66570794353145968702013-06-20T17:01:43.908-04:002013-06-20T17:01:43.908-04:00At 2 Weight Watchers points each, I'm not abou...At 2 Weight Watchers points each, I'm not about to buy an entire package of watermelon Oreos to try one or two.

Okay, I agree with the strawberry oreo--I tasted one and I thought it was great. And I like the mint oreo very much. It makes sense to pair chocolate with mint and strawberry--but watermelon? lemon? Oh, I see that they are blonde--still, I don't know. Seems a bit of a stretch. Still, I'd try one if I had one . . . or two . . .
