Courtesy of KFC and Oreo, a new dessert concoction has hit supermarket shelves. Over the years, Oreo has introduced several wild flavors that stray away from its beloved original cookie sandwich, including Fruit Punch, Pumpkin Spice, Waffles and Syrup, Limeade, Candy Cane, and Mint.
Oreo has practically sandwiched every known flavor between its two cookies, but its newest innovation may be the craziest one yet.
The unexpected cookie crossover debuted in China on July 31 as part of Oreo's limited-edition "Playful Time Travel" collection, according to China Insider.
Oddly enough, this isn't KFC's first international endeavor with Oreo. In April 2025, popular food blogger Snackolator shared an image of a "Kentucky Fried Oreo," a menu item that is only available in South Africa.
"You get the deep-fried OREO cookies with vanilla soft serve, fudge, and sprinkles," the influencer wrote before lamenting that the dessert treat is not available in the United States. "KFC is just playing with my emotions," he said.
Regarding the KFC-flavored Oreos, social media users had mixed opinions on the experimental snack.
"Just because you could doesn't mean you should," one user warned.
"F--- our health, apparently," one user commented.
Another user seemed disturbed by the bizarre collaboration, writing, "This just ruined my appetite."
"Who tf greenlit this?" said another confused user.
Another user joked, "Depopulation can happen in many ways other than bombs and war."
"I've been out big backed. Whoever thought of this is out of control and needs to be stopped," another user replied.
One X user wrote, "No offense. There aren't enough vomit emojis in the world to cover this. Hard pass."
While social media users seemed shocked by the cookie company's latest invention, this is just another day in the office for Oreo.
Earlier this year, Oreo introduced dill pickle-flavored cookies to celebrate April Fool's Day.
Last Thanksgiving, Oreo released Cranberry Sauce, Creamed Corn, Pumpkin Pi, Sweet Potato and Turkey-flavored cookies.
In pursuit of the perfect (or perhaps imperfect) cookie flavor, Oreo seemingly will leave no stone unturned.
