Summary

With double the cream filling versus the original Oreo, the sugar load is even higher, and the deck stacks high fructose corn syrup, palm oil, soybean/canola oil, alkali-processed cocoa, and artificial flavor.

Risks
High omega-6 content may promote inflammation when consumed in excess.
High fructose corn syrupVery Bad
