Oreo Breaks Out a New Flavor for Thanksgiving

Gingerbread Oreos[1]Now that we’re past Halloween, foods will be taking a seasonal turn toward more wintry holiday fare.

That even goes for Oreos.

The latest confection from Nabisco — one of the snack brands under Kraft spinoff Mondelez‘s (NASDAQ:MDLZ[2]) — is a gingerbread twist on an old favorite[3].

The specialty flavor is far from the only wacky Oreo combination; the cookies also have come in Peanut Butter, Cool Mint Crème, Birthday Cake and Candy Corn. However, Oreo fans hoping to get their hands on the latest edition can only do so at Walmart (NYSE:WMT[4]).
