Oreo has never been shy about putting a new spin on America’s favorite cookie. Fresh off the launch of Cinnamon Bun Oreos, the brand is now unveiling three of its boldest flavors yet.
The limited-edition lineup includes Oreo Banana Pudding Cookies, Oreo Deep Fried Cookies and Oreo Chicken & Waffles Cookies. Rather than simply asking shoppers to try them, Oreo is putting the final decision in their hands.
The company’s new Twist, Lick, Vote campaign lets fans choose one flavor to return for a limited run in 2027. Voting opens Aug. 17 and runs through Oct. 12, with the winner set to be announced on Oct. 13.
Banana Pudding is likely the safest bet in the group. It pairs a dual-layered banana and vanilla pudding-flavored creme with vanilla wafer cookies, offering a clear nod to the Southern dessert staple.
The Deep Fried Oreo is aimed at fans of state fairs and carnival food. It uses fried dough-flavored cookies with a dark chocolate and fried dough-flavored creme, designed to capture the flavor of a fresh-from-the-fryer treat.
Then there is Chicken & Waffles. The sweet-and-savory cookie has a waffle-textured design and dual-layered creme built around maple syrup and fried chicken flavor notes. It is easily the most unusual entry in the competition, and probably the one most likely to divide shoppers.

All three varieties will be available for presale on Oreo’s website and the SnackWorks TikTok Shop beginning Aug. 17. They will start appearing in grocery and retail stores nationwide on Aug. 24, while supplies last.
Customers can vote by scanning the QR code on the packaging or by visiting Oreo’s voting page. Every eligible vote also enters participants into a sweepstakes for a year’s supply of original Oreos.
The contest is a smart way to let consumers choose which experimental flavor deserves a wider return. Whether America picks the familiar appeal of Banana Pudding, the novelty of Deep Fried or the wild-card Chicken & Waffles, Oreo will have a clear answer by mid-October.
