Taking a short break from their stunt-casting of new flavors, Oreo will unleash a much thinner version of their signature cookie.
Oreo Thins, surely designed to make larger Oreos feel bad about themselves, appear to be borrowing from an Apple playbook. The new cookies are minimized, thinner, faster, and better than your feeble Android cookies.
The thin Oreos are catered to adults, who may not be looking to separate and dunk their Oreos. So, basically, for people who are doing it wrong. Anyways, Oreo Thins will be available in golden, original, and mint flavors starting July 13th.
If you’re really into fried chicken, then perhaps you already fancy Colonel Sanders some type of superhero. Now, the KFC founder and mascot is actually immortalized in comic book form, with The Colonel’s Adventure Comics.

Hard copies of The Colonel’s Adventure Comics will be made available to this year’s Comic-Con attendees in San Diego. Others who love origin stories, can keep watching Spider-Man reboots, or check out a digital copy of KFC’s comic here.
