UPDATE, January 6, 2020:
Oreo made a promise and they delivered! Milk's favorite cookie announced back in November that they would be releasing caramel coconut and chocolate marshmallow flavors by January 2020 and alas, they have arrived.
Oreo posted an Instagram photo confirming the release, and in the comments section Oreo-lovers were asking all of the necessary questions. Although some of the answers were vague, "They're rolling out now to a cookie aisle near you!" it can be assumed that these cookies will be wherever you typically buy Oreos.
Another person commented asking the question we are all wondering: "Are these babies limited edition?" The brand commented back saying "They are indeed, so once they're gone, they're gone!"
There ya have it, folks! Oreos that taste like caramel coconut goodness and all the best parts of a s'more are out there, but be sure to get them before they're gone for good.

Are you prepared to totally freak out? Yes? GREAT, because we have exciting news. Oreo announced Thursday it would be releasing two new flavors in January 2020: Chocolate Marshmallow and Caramel Coconut. I KNOW.
Oreo quietly made the announcement with a video on its Instagram page, and people completely lost it, with one person making my favorite comment: "HELL yes. Now these are some fun new flavors!!!" Could not agree more!
We don't know too much about the now-highly anticipated new flavors, but I'm prepared to take a swing at what we can expect from each. First up! Chocolate Marshmallow appears to be a classic Oreo cookie filled with chocolate marshmallow filling. This was a bit of a surprise for me: When I first heard the name, I didn't realize the chocolate would be in the filling as well, but here we are.
The Caramel Coconut flavor also appears to be a classic chocolate Oreo cookie that's filled with caramel coconut creme. I am secretly hoping they'll come out with a Golden Oreo version of this cookie, too, but the classic version seems amazing.
We reached out to Oreo to try and get some more information on the cookies and will be sure to update this post if we hear anything back.
With the return of Most Stuf Oreos looming and the Mystery Oreo flavor still, well, a mystery, it's a pretty exciting time to be an Oreo fan right about now. It almost makes us excited for the new year...almost.
