Though I'll Admit I Would Have Tried The Key Lime Oreos
-
It is not your imagination: Oreo has been cranking out more and more weird flavors lately. Nobody actually LIKES the new flavors, yet they're cranking out 10 to 14 new limited-edition flavors each year. Why? Because they know you'll talk about it on social media, so much so that they're soliciting ideas for new flavors in a hashtag contest. And it gives them free market research, since they're pretty much crowdsourcing ideas. Also, the number of varieties is leaving people a little overwhelmed, and maybe less likely to bother with Oreos at all. (New York Times)
