Hey there horror hounds and disco cats!<\/p>\n

It’s that time of year again, when\u00a0night prevails over day, when the most ordinary of folk\u00a0transform into the macabre and morbid weirdos that we, here at Gothober, embody all year long.\u00a0Autumn has descended,\u00a0bringing with it the bountiful harvest of autumnal flavors and variations on the\u00a0orange hue that food scientists can manage.<\/p>\n

\n

Today’s autumnal treat:\u00a0Nabisco’s\u00a0\u201cLimited Edition\u201d\u00a0Pumpkin Spice cr\u00e8me\u00a0Oreos<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Once inside it’s noisy yellow packaging I’m confronted with 3 rows of tawny blonde\u00a0cookies on either side of deep orange filling, whose hue have echoes of both butterscotch and rust.\u00a0Wafting upward is a scent that equal parts vanilla Yankee Candle and Pillsbury frosting can,\u00a0along with\u00a0a note of sickly sweet; not unlike that new rubber ball.<\/p>\n

I quickly, and greedily, lift the treat to my mouth!\u00a0\u00a0I bite\u00a0down to feel a familiar Oreo\u00a0texture sensation: the cookie crisp but not brittle, it’s filling yielding and unctuous.\u00a0Then something new<\/em>, a rush of holiday flavor! It’s flavor seems more apple cider spice\u00a0than pumpkin spice. Crunching away, the flavor remains the same. There are notes of vanilla, warm and\u00a0orange-y like autumnal centerpieces of nostalgia pressed into play-doh and sprinkled with golden\u00a0spiced hay.<\/p>\n

The residual flav\"img_2237\"or of it lingers….lingers….lingering for much longer than one anticipates.\u00a0Its feeling is of\u00a0a warm gingery glow whose welcome has been thoroughly worn.\u00a0All things considered. Nabisco’s holiday offering, while succeeding at the flavor of an\u00a0ephemeral autumn night, loses points when it hangs around for too damn long.<\/p>\n

Something good that stays for too long.<\/em><\/p>\n

I think I feel a holiday allegory coming on.<\/p>\n

Overall: 5 disco blood bags out of 7.<\/strong><\/p>\n
