Some snack food flavors are only introduced for consumers in a specific part of the world and Oreo is now giving Americans the chance to get a taste of the China Six Flavors series.
For four years, Oreo has teamed up with Tmall Super Brand Day and this year it is introducing the co-branded cookies that were created with China's Palace Museum Food Company. As well as being able to discover intriguing new flavors like Red Bean Cake Flavor, Lychee-Rose Cake Flavor, Green Tea Cake Flavor, Spicy Pepper Pastry Flavor and the Chaoshan-style BBQ Pork Pastry Flavor, American consumers will also be treated to Chinese-style packaging.
At landmarks in New York City, models in traditional Chinese clothing invited people to experience the taste of the Oreo cookies that have never before been available in North America.
