I often scrape the filling off and give it to my kids, definitely pro cookie

Oreo Thins Will Make You Feel Less Guilty About Eating The Entire PackageThe Huffington Post | By Carly Ledbetter

Brace yourselves -- a new Oreo is hitting the shelves and this cookie has downsized. Welcome to the world, Oreo Thins:
Oreo announced the new, slimmer version of itself on Monday, though the new treat won't actually hit stores until July 13. Thins will come in three different varieties -- Original, Golden and Mint flavors -- with a suggested retail of $4.59.

The new Oreo Thins really do live up to their sleek name. The classic cookie is 12.5 mm thick, while this new cookie is 7.5mm thick. To get a better idea of how the cookies looks, from left to right, here's a Double Stuf Oreo, regular Oreo and the new Oreo Thins:

Despite its small size, multiple Huffington Post editors agreed that the Thin looks and tastes exactly like a regular Oreo, without feeling like a "diet" cookie (you know, those "fun" snack-sized Oreos that look and taste nothing like the real thing).

It may be hard to get over the somewhat-icky name, but the Thins aren't really a "diet" cookie at all, if that's what you're going for. According to the packaging, four Oreo Thins have 140 calories, 6 grams of fat and 12 grams of sugar, while three regular Oreos have 160 calories, 7 grams of fat and 14 grams of sugar. Either way you look at it, Oreos aren't ever going to be "healthy," but they will always be delicious.

I'd never heard of these until I saw them in the store last night and got a recommendation on them from a woman who was buying them. Tried the mint and the vanilla so far.

It's not an excuse to eat frosting that a regular Oreo is. Double stuff lovers don't try one expecting it to be. But outside of that I am liking them better overall. Same flavor, still sweet, but without that over-sugared sensation. I like the balance between cookie and frosting better if I just want a couple of cookies for a quick snack.

The mint one is pretty much like a Girl Scout Thin Mint. Including getting even better if you eat them out of the freezer.

Why did nobody page me?

I saw the news in July and thought you don't need an excuse to eat more Oreos.

Besides, the name is an oxymoron.

Tried the vanilla Thins out of the freezer. Like the mint ones, even better frozen.

Bite-sized Oreos coated with chocolate.

They are like ####### crack.  Not good for diets.  @Otis, stay away.
