If you’re like me and have a perpetual sweet tooth, then you know the struggle of always searching for that perfect snack. Here are a few of the many reasons why keeping a box of Oreos around is always a good idea.
1. They’re a classic.
When it comes to fashion, black and white never goes out of style, so I guess we can say the same for the Oreo. Whether it’s the basic chocolate and vanilla or red velvet, the simple round cookie will always be an American staple with a long history.
2. There are a variety of flavors.

No longer is it just Double Stuf, but cookie dough, birthday cake or even mint. Whatever flavor you’re craving, Oreos got your back.
3. They’re vegan…so they must be healthy, right?

Regardless of their health benefits, they’re delicious and that’s all that matters.
4. They go well with all different kinds of milk and milk alternatives.
