![]() ![]() Regardless of why Oreo Big Stuf disappeared, it still was pretty cool that you could get an Oreo cookie the size of your hand during most of the 80s. However the Big Stuf required you to commit to eating it all or you’d just toss it in the trash as waste. With a smaller traditional sized Oreo you can eat as many or as little as you want. Those are two hallmarks that make an Oreo cookie popular, and these were woefully overlooked when creating the Oreo Big Stuf.Īlso if you think about it having a giant Oreo isn’t always practical, and in fact it really demands a commitment. ![]() You couldn’t exactly dunk a Big Stuf into a glass of milk, and forget trying to separate the two sides to lick the creamy middle. So having a giant Oreo with more than half the calories of a cheeseburger in your pocket probably wasn’t seen as such a great health choice.įurthermore there was a functionality issue with Oreo Big Stuf. Many believe it was the fact that the 1980s was really a time when people began to be more health conscious and aware of what they were putting in their bodies.ĭiet Coke was introduced in 1982 as a huge hit, and going to the gym became much more mainstream with the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger and other cultural icons making fitness and nutrition popular. Obviously the product was not selling well, so one can only speculate as to the reasons why. ![]() Nobody really knows why Oreo Big Stuf was discontinued in 1991 only after a 7 year run. I mean after all, what did you expect from an Oreo cookie the size of your hand? Here’s a commercial from the 1980s advertising the Oreo Big Stuf, you can see just by how they hold them how large these cookies were. Each Oreo Big Stuf had 316 calories and 13 grams of fat! Contrast that to your standard Oreo cookie which as roughly 53 calories and 2 grams of fat each, the Oreo Big Stuf was definitely not friendly to your waistline. It also had a massive calorie count to boot. Biting into an Oreo cookie doesn’t seem like the best option, which can make the whole eating process boring.Īll in all, hopefully, we can all agree that Oreos are one of the best, if not the best, snack cookies on the market.As you can see this bad boy dwarfed it’s counterparts. With a live poll being conducted ( ), splitting an Oreo then biting it is in the lead with 39% at the time of writing this. This helps the person eating taste each individual and unique flavor, rather than mushing both opposing chocolate and vanilla flavors together. By separating each side, you can enjoy both the vanilla and chocolate flavors in the cookie. Although eating this snack as a sandwich seems like the most logical answer, there is a better way. However, there is still an ongoing heated debate on whether an Oreo should be eaten as a sandwich cookie or eaten separately, dividing the cream filling from the cookie itself. The wholesale company Sam’s Club sells 9lb tubs of Oreo cream, ( ) The cream can also be served in a multitude of ways, dipped in fresh fruit, spread it across baked goods, or simply eaten alone. ( ) There seems to be no fan club for the cookie wafer part of the Oreo, mainly because it is not the best part of the cookie. For example, there are many Oreo fanatics who create “All Stuf Oreo”, where there’s only cream filling and NO cookie. People also seem to agree that the Oreo filling is the superior part of the cookie. It only serves as a protective layer for the cream to not stick to the packaging. ![]() The chocolate cookie is a bland, tasteless piece of “cardboard”. While the debate is still ongoing, I believe that the vanilla cream is the best part and should be eaten first when given an Oreo.Īrguably, the best part of an Oreo cookie is its vanilla filling. Oreos are a snack cookie that has a chocolate cookie wafer that sandwiches a creamy vanilla filling in the middle. ![]()
