    They're called "chocolate sandwich biscuits" in the UK? Huh, I always call them "overrated".

      How is it a chocolate sandwich though?

      I have a ham sandwich, or I have a salami sandwich. I don’t have a “bread sandwich.”

      The shit in the middle isn’t chocolate right?

      That's just what the off brand ones call themselves to avoid lawsuits, don't read too much into it.

      Or do idc lol but that's why.

        The US sees an item not referred to by a corporate brand name, and wouldn't have it.

        They're not alone in it, but their suseptiblity to macro-marketing can only be described as "American level".

        The brand name is far from the point here but why bother when “grumble grumble America bad” is an option.

            It's a chocolate-flavored sandwich-cookie, not a cookie version of a chocolate sandwich.

                Not just shite, but like they got every facet as wrong as they could. Awful, heinous biscuits.

                  Never thought I'd be on the side of the redcoats, but alas you make a good point.

                  I understand now why so many traitorous Scots put on the coat.

                    If memory serves, the original oreo, which had some shit futuristic name that makes it sound like a cleaning product or something, are older than bourbons, but bourbons are older than oreos.

                      Hydrox. They're still around, and have always been kosher. vegan.

                        Bourbons were just copying the already successful Hydrox cookies. Hydrox is superior to both Bourbons and Oreo, because they have always been vegan

                          And none of that Sleepytime crap either! Doesn't work. My mother used to give me a cup before bed constantly in an attempt to get me to sleep more than 4 hours a day.

                            Yeah, bourbons and oreos are both vegan. I can't speak for whether or not a rabbi was present for their slaughter, or whatever.

                                (Maybe they are kosher, sorry. I was just making a joke of ignorance between kosher and halal. Figured we might as well conflate Islam and Judaism)

                                  I could be wrong, but as I understand it Halal is Kosher, but not the other way around, since Muslims recognize Jews as a people of the book.

                                      Hydrox has a more cookie like cookie than Oreo's and yet... I like the abomination more. Something about its almost chemical like flavor just goes really good with the creme and milk.

                                          Yes but so is wet cardboard so that is not a high bar. I never understood why people liked oreos. They're really shitty biscuits, the only thing good about them is the marketing. I think I ate two in my life. The first because people hyped them up, the second because I could not believe they were quite as bad as I remembered because people still seemed to eat them of their own free will. They were actually as bad as they were the first time.
