Limited-edition snacks are both a blessing and a curse. While it’s always a delight to try a new flavor, it can be so hard to say goodbye when they disappear from grocery store shelves at the end of their short run. All too often fans are left wanting more, yet their demands aren’t always heard.
However, once in a while brands give the people what they want — and that is exactly what Nabisco did for fans of the beloved Blueberry Pie Oreo Cookies. The flavor once believed to be long gone is back for the first time since 2017, and fans are so excited.
The @snackolater Instagram account announced the return of the fan-favorite flavor, citing July 7 as the release date. While these Oreos are still a limited-edition flavor, they will be available at all retailers nationwide. It just goes to show that asking nicely sometimes pays off— even if it takes eight years.
Blueberry Pie Oreo Cookies are extra special and unlike any other Oreo cookies we’ve seen before — except for the last time they were available, of course. The limited-edition flavor features graham cracker-inspired Oreo cookies with a sweet blueberry filling.
“These were really good. Hopefully they’re the same as the original release ❤️,” wrote one commenter on Instagram. “Nice! I remember getting them from Target at the time,” said another. “Cut it outtttt I have been waiting for these for years lol,” commented a third.
While there’s no official date for when Blueberry Pie Oreo cookies will disappear from grocery store shelves once again, we do know the limited-edition flavor won’t be around forever. If you’re one of the many people who have been patiently waiting almost a decade for Blueberry Pie Oreos to return, now’s the time to stock up before they’re gone for good.
