I don’t think I’d eat anything named Hydrox tbh. Then again I didn’t think I’d love Mr. Christie’s creamy frosting this much…

Forget the name; try them when you get the chance (Cracker Barrel sells them). They taste more “natural” then Oreos and leave less of a corn syrup-y aftertaste in your mouth.
