Oreo brings back fan-favorite flavor after 8-year hiatus | Official Website of Louis Velazquez, entrepreneur, finance guy and tech innovator

There are many types of cookies out there, from chocolate chip to sugar; however, only one is known by its brand name rather than the type of cookie it is.

Although it needs no introduction, Oreo is one of the most popular sandwich cookies worldwide.

The cookie brand has developed over 85 different flavors since its inception in 1912, when it was first produced in the Chelsea Market in Manhattan, New York.

Although Oreo is mainly known for its original chocolate wafer with vanilla creme, it has launched multiple offerings, with some becoming permanent additions, others being seasonal regulars, and a few getting completely discontinued.

There are various factors Oreo takes into account when choosing which flavors to make, keep, and discontinue. However, sometimes the reason is entirely unknown, especially when a flavor is so beloved.

Oreo brings back a beloved seasonal flavor due to popular demand

Oreo, owned by Mondelez International (MDLZ) , first launched the Blueberry Pie Oreo cookie in June 2016 as a limited edition flavor and, due to its popularity, re-released it in 2017.

The Blueberry Pie Oreo features blueberry creme sandwiched between two graham cracker-flavored cookies.

Although a success among fans, the cookie giant discontinued this flavor after it was last made available to the public, never to be seen again on grocery store shelves.

However, eight years later, Oreo had a sudden change of heart.

Some may say that touting the power of collective voices only helps keep people motivated, but the strategy has actually worked this time.

Due to popular demand, Oreo is returning the fan-favorite Blueberry Pie Oreo cookie.

The Blueberry Pie Oreo will be available for a limited time on July 7 at grocery stores nationwide. For those who registered, the pre-sale begins June 30.

Cookie fans react to the return of the Blueberry Pie Oreo

Oreo made a social media post to announce the return of the discontinued Blueberry Pie flavor with the caption, “You win. Now please stop yelling at us.”

Netizens quickly bombarded Oreo’s comments section with their opinions on the relaunch after an eight-year hiatus.

A user commented, “Dreams do come true!!!”

Another user wrote, “Summer just got solved.”

A Blueberry Pie Oreo lover expressed their excitement, commenting, “I’ve been waiting for this day…for ALMOST 10 YEARS!!!”

International Oreo fans also took over the comments section, requesting the Blueberry Pie flavor be available in their home countries.

After this first petition was successful, many people began requesting the return of other discontinued flavors, with Red Velvet taking the lead.

There’s no reassurance that the Blueberry Pie Oreo will return next year, so you should stock up now while supplies last.
