Oreo has quite the catalog of flavors (pssst, we ranked them all here), but for its latest launch, Nabisco is switching things up. The brand is selling a new "mystery" cookie that looks—but doesn't taste—like the classic. And they're enlisting fans to guess the secret creme flavor for the opportunity to win $50,000.
Yes, you can snag mad cash just for eating cookies. It's the dream, we know. According to Oreo, the limited-edition product is hitting stores September 16. And "super-sleuths" will have a chance to crack the case; they're just not going to make it easy on you.
"Ready your mind and prepare your taste buds because the Mystery Oreo could be anything, from a combination of two current Oreo flavors to an entirely new flavor," a rep for the brand told Delish.
I know this sounds like a nearly impossible feat, but the folks over at Nabisco are going to drop hints. "While the first hint is in the taste of the creme, Oreo is releasing three different Mystery OREO packs with different clues on each," the spokesperson continued. "Collect all three to be sure your flavor profile adds up." You can also find more secrets during Oreo's new Facebook series #MysteryMonday.
The sweepstakes will run through November 10, 2019, but you're welcome to enter new flavor guesses every day. And for every correct one, you'll score a submission for that 50 grande.
We got our hands on the cookie a little early, and while I don't think any of my personal guesses will win me the cash, here's what I can say: They're filled with some sort of wonderful cinnamon, snickerdoodle-esque creme and I can't get enough. Now, BRB, I have business (i.e. eating a lot of Oreos) to attend to.
