[English]

Hello, my beautiful lovelies! Hi, it's Emmy. Welcome back!

Today I'm going to be tasting a selection of Oreos.

So I have eaten many, many Oreos,

probably over twenty-five different flavors at this point.

If you've missed my previous tastings, I shall direct you to the playlist there and there, and you can see

some other unique flavors. Today, I have six flavors for you. I picked them up at the grocery store recently.

I was kind of surprised -- usually they dole these out with a couple flavors every few months --

but I was actually able to gather enough to do a video for you today.

The first one I have is this one! And I believe this is from the Winter Edition.

This is the Hot Cocoa Oreo. It has the same chocolate Oreo

cookies, but it looks like there's two different colors of frosting

Let's go ahead and take a look.

All the packaging has this easy lift tab thing.

For easy access

And here are the Oreos! If you open it, you can see that

one side is chocolate and one side is cream filling which I think is supposed to be like the marshmallow.

Smells great, smells just like the regular Oreo. Alright, let's give that a go!

Itadakimas~!

They taste a lot like a regular Oreo:

same crunchy delicious chocolatey cookie on the outside;

very sweet middle; but it tastes a lot like a regular Oreo with a little kiss of cocoa. Hmm!?

It has just a little bit of extra cocoa flavor, but not really significant.

But it is very sweet. I would say a little bit sweeter, in my opinion, than the regular Oreo -- just based on my memory.

But, yeah, not bad: pretty solid cocoa flavor. Not surprising because this...

frosting contains two different types of frosting, so it's not just chocolate. That's not a bad Oreo!

I'm going to dip it in some almond milk.

Give that a go.

What a great combination!

Oreo cookies with really cold milk. Even though this is not real milk, if it was real milk, it would be even better.

Almond milk will do.

It's just...it's just so good.

Hot Cocoa Oreos...

And, I have a crumb on my should.... I don't have dandruff... (laughs)

All right, let's try these ones next! And these are the Oreo Thin Bites.

So, the thin ones which are about half the thickness of a typical Oreo.

And these are mini!

Cute!

Oh my gosh.

These are adorable. Oh, they made a mistake on some of these -- look!

So it's just Oreo on this side, but these are not okay. These should be rejected, because it's not Oreo on both sides

Quality control, people, quality control. Look these are the thins so they're like the minis,

but they are thinner. And they're so cute, they're like little dog-sized Oreos.

And those are great, but what's really different is the proportion of cream to cookie.

I feel like now that everything is thinner, there still seems to be more proportion of cookie to cream.

So, while you're biting it's much bigger crunch than your typical Oreo experience -- in my opinion.

Mm-hmm!

Still delicious and not signaturely as sweet as a typical Oreo, which I actually appreciate. It just feels a little bit different,

both in taste and texture, because the proportions are a little bit different.

But, delicious. I actually like the fact that there is a reduced amount of cream to that. But, dangerous.

These are small and really easy to pop into your mouth --

-- and you just pour out a whole bunch. So even though you think you're eating a fewer number of these,

Chances are you're probably eating more because they're just so easy to consume.

All right, so let's pour these back into the bag. Because they're in this bag, they kinda remind me of like...

doggy treats, or something. Alright, let's reseal that! That's nice and convenient.

Let's try these --

which are the Thin Bites Dipped.

These are the Fudge Dipped Thin Bites. These come in Original or Mint.

I chose mint because I love the combination of chocolate and mint together.

They smell like Andes mints. I love those chocolates. All right.

Let's pour that out.

Whoa. Whoa!

That's a lot of cookies. So, if we compare them to the original,

they are, not surprisingly, almost the same size, a little bit larger than a U.S. nickel, I would say.

All right, let's give these a taste.

Super stinkin' cute! The mint is actually the inside of the cookie! Nice and green and grasshoppery and --

delicious!

These are totally reminiscent of Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies. Absolutely, wonderfully so.

Oh, yeah

Great, bright cool peppermint flavor, and with some cold milk

Amazing, because it makes it feel even cooler.

Perfect balance and combination of mint chocolate.

Sweetness, cream everything. Again, very dangerous because they're tiny and so palpable, but these are scrumptious.

So good!

Love those.

A lot. On that note, I'm going to put these away.

Bye, delicious, scrumptious cookies. I like the thinner texture of the cookie as opposed to the thicker mint ones.

And then you have the fudgy stuff.

Okay. Let's put those away.

Let's get in some milk.

Getting a little too excited about our Oreo, girl! Okay, next let's try--

These! And these are the chocolate hazelnut Oreos.

So chocolate hazelnut is of course a very popular spread also known as Nutella, Nut-ella...

Nootella...

However you guys say it.

And this is a limited edition. and the cookie on here looks like it's a golden cookie with the chocolate hazelnut filling.

Ooh, yes-

Those are beautiful. Let's give that a twist.

Ooh, that looks nice and rich. A little bit darker than the chocolate filling or the hot cocoa filling. Actually smells more like a--

-chocolate glazed donut. I'm curious to know if this cookie is a graham cookie or vanilla cookie.

Let's give it a taste.

Mm-hmm. So the cookie is more vanilla cookie rather than graham, which I prefer.

I'm not a huge fan of that kind of graham cracker flavor.

What I am surprised is that the filling has a distinctive Nutella kind of flavor!

It's very chocolatey with a little bit of nutty richness.

And I'm impressed with that! I thought it was just gonna be you know their typical chocolate filling, but it actually does taste like Nutella.

That's pretty good. Now, this flavor. I am really excited taste and this is hot and spicy cinnamon.

So, hot and spicy cinnamon Oreos, I think are supposed to be reminiscent of these candies which are popularly known as Red Hot.

As a kid. I hated them. They were just too spicy for me. The small--

--candy is popular around

Valentine's Day and they're very very cinnamony and kind of spicy, particularly for kids. Alright. These are limited edition

These are probably in preparation for Valentine's Day.

Let's give these a whiff.

Oooh yes-

Smells like big, red chewing gum! Smells good, actually. Very cinnamony!

There's the filling--Ooh, the filling looks kind of fluffy and-

Kind of pinky. Not as bright red as say the winter edition Oreos, which I appreciate, and a very, very strong smell of cinnamon

On the money. Absolutely Red Hot flavor. Is it spicy?

No, but it's very strong.

Huge, huge cinnamon flavor, and then you've got the chocolate cookie on the outside. Actually a very good combination

Especially if you like Red Hots. If you like Red Hots and cinnamon-

You will adore this combination.

Mm-hm.

Something about that cinnamon kind of tones down the amount of sweetness in here. It actually works really, really well. Is it spicy though...?

No, not really spicy.

Aggressive? Yes, but not spicy. To a child it might be spicy. So for my last Oreo flavor, I'm going to taste one of these--

And these are cookie butter Oreos. And based on the cookie they showed here--

I think these are gonna be like the Biscoff cookies that are popular in

Europe, the ones that you get on the airplane

There's cinnamony, and they're light and crisp and delicious with tea. And there's a really popular spread that is made with these crushed cookies.

Delicious on toast. Let us see...

Alright let's get these open...What??

Did someone open these...?

What. Did I get...?

Nobody in my family opened these. Did I get a...

...a tampered container?

What?All right, so these I just bought from the store two days ago. My kids my husband haven't touched-

Did someone open this at the store..? And then I'm gonna have to replay this one when I edit it.

But definitely looks like there's some cookies missing. Right? Like...four?

Okay, well I'm gonna choose a cookie from this side.

It's probably fine, right?

It smells fine. It smells like Teddy Grahams. Here's the filling.

Totally camouflaged, almost the same exact color as the cookie. Let's give that a taste.

Itadakimas?

I do taste the Speculoos flavor. That's the flavor of the cookie in there comes to me.

But I taste a lot of the graham as well.

I think I might have liked this better with a chocolate cookie or maybe the vanilla cookie?

I feel like the graham kind of outcompetes the Biscoff or the speculoos flavor in there.

It kind of gets lost. Let me just try the filling by itself.

Hm.

Now that I tasted the cream alone, I think that cream could have more aggressive speculoos flavor.

Maybe that's the problem. It needs to have more cookie in there,

so it can out-compete the graham.

Those are okay. If you're a huge fan of the cookie butter, then maybe this is worth trying but...

Yeah. It kind of...hmm.

So, there you have it another Oreo tasting! Hope you guys enjoyed that one. I hope you guys learned something.

Please share this video with your friends; follow me on social media,

so you can get a peek of what videos are coming up next.

I publish videos every Monday, Thursday, and Saturday, so I shall see you in my next one. All right -- toodaloo! Take care! Bye!

Selsun Blue, anyone?

Key Grammar Structures

• So I have eaten many, many Oreos, probably over twenty-five different flavors at this point.

  ➔ Present Perfect with 'many' for emphasis, use of 'probably' to express likelihood.

  ➔ The phrase "have eaten many, many Oreos" uses the **present perfect** to indicate an experience up to the present. The repetition of "many" intensifies the quantity. **'probably'** softens the claim about the exact number.

• If you've missed my previous tastings, I shall direct you to the playlist there and there.

  ➔ Conditional sentence (Type 2), use of 'shall' for polite offer/suggestion.

  ➔ This is a **second conditional** sentence: "If you've missed...", "I shall direct you...". It describes a hypothetical situation and its consequence. **'shall'** is a more formal and polite way of offering help or making a suggestion.
