WHAT?!?! If you like chocolate, you must try them. BUT...when my kiddos were young, all I bought was Hydrox. Very similar, but made with dark chocolate. When they created their own homes, they complained that Oreos didn't taste the same. They will tell you that they don't like dark chocolate, but that's the difference. Now Hydrox cookies have to be special ordered.
