Title: Hydrox cookies are back.
Post by: Tupin on August 25, 2008, 03:10:04 PM
Went to the store today, and I saw something I haven't seen since I was like two. Hydrox cookies, and they are so much better than Oreos.

Everyone, go out and buy a box so Kellogg's will continue to make them, plus the fact that in like 20 years, you'll be able to sell them for like $150 on eBay.  :D

Anything's better than Oreos.  I can sell a box on eBay?  Empty or full?  Wouldn't they be stale by then?

I actually saw them in a grocery store flyer a few days back.  I didn't hear of them until then.

They actually came out BEFORE Oreos, they just always lagged behind in sales behind Oreos.

Yes, you could sell a twenty year box of stale cookies for a lot on eBay. People's nostalgia is really high for stuff like that.

Just for the box, or for the cookies too?  Would they eat them? :O

What's with all the Oreo haters here? :(

What, does Hydrox have better/more cream?  If so, I'm sold.

Yes, better cream and a much better cookie.

Sure, I'll try some.

Also, what Zovi said. If it has just as good(With more cream of course) or better cream, I will make sure to find them. Thanks Tuppy. >>

Oeros are THE most nastiest cookies I have ever tasted in my life.
I can't stand them, .... HYDROX? :|

Sounds like something you'd put inside a car to make it go faster.

The name doesn't sound too appetizing...
But the next time I see them I'll get them.

They wanted to sound pure, so they took the the Hydr from Hydrogen and the ox from Oxygen, as those two are the makeup of pure water.

Oreos really are nasty, I have no idea how they are the best selling cookie in America.

I think Oreos are ok. They just make my teeth all black, so I have to brush my teeth whenever I eat them. :P

Nope.

Soft+Warm+Chewey Sugar cookies = orgasm in the mouth.
(or Subways Macadamia  (Sp?) cookies)

So, they're Oreo knock-offs that are supposedly better?

Post by: Silk on August 25, 2008, 08:41:23 PM
I've had both of them and really can't tell the difference.  Well, maybe if I had one Oreo and one Hydrox cookie in a row, I could tell, but they really aren't that different.

Hydrox really needs to do something about that name if they want success, though.  I think Hydrox would be good for a bottled water corporation or maybe even an energy drink (Hydrox...think "hydrated"?).  It would also be a good name for a type of medicine, since many medicines end in -ex or -ox.  But when I think of Hydrox, a cookies-and-cream snack is one of the last things that would come to my mind.

How can you?

Seriously, the chocolate is so dark that you can barely taste the cream, even if there barely is any.

Fool, if you want to taste the cream, you unscrew the Oreo and lick it first. Don't you know how to eat Oreos?

Or get Double Stuffed, if they still make them. Those were awesome but I haven't had them in ages.
