There’s no denying that Oreos are one of the most beloved, iconic cookies to ever grace this Earth. A testament to their popularity is the mind-boggling assortment of flavors that have been released over the years, ranging from the classics like original and Double Stuf to more unique creations like Lemon and Birthday Cake. In this noble pursuit of cookie connoisseurship, I bravely ventured into the realm of Oreo flavors and tasted every single one I could find.
Here’s my definitive ranking:
1. Original Oreo: The classic that started it all, no list would be complete without paying homage to the quintessential combination of rich, chocolate cookies and sweet, creamy filling.

6. Peanut Butter Oreo: A satisfyingly salty twist on a classic; peanut butter lovers will rejoice in this tribute to a legendary pairing.
7. S’mores Oreo: Although it doesn’t quite capture the campfire-toasted magic of an authentic s’more, this edition offers a nostalgic taste with hints of marshmallow and graham cracker.
8. Dark Chocolate Oreo: For those who enjoy their sweets with a bit of bite, the depth of dark chocolate combined with the signature Oreo crunch is a sophisticated, palate-pleasing experience.
9. Carrot Cake Oreo: This flavor nails the essence of carrot cake and cream cheese frosting, all bundled up into a hand-held cookie.
