It’s about time I come clean and admit that about a year and a half ago, I developed an Oreo addiction. It started out mild but got intense after going through a hard breakup and learning how to be single again. Oreos became a comfort food; there’s just something about that creamy goodness sandwiched between two crunchy cookies.

I’m not mad about this addiction, but my past eating disorder self is. Before, I wasn’t allowed much more than a small ration of dark chocolate to curb my sweet tooth.

Boring.

So, last New Year’s Eve — after my addiction persisted for about half a year — I decided to set the most genius goal for 2022: Try every Oreo flavor ever made.

The commitment

Being that I live in a small, rural community with only two main grocery stores — Safeway and Albertsons — I found it hard to track down every Oreo flavor. Before the new year started, I had basically already tried every flavor available in these stores.
