Oh my god I'm about to demolish so many fucking oreos
That explains why they taste like cardboard.
Plenty of processed crap with animal products tastes terrible too lol. I don’t think the vegan nature makes the difference
Brexit prompted a lot of treat manufacturers in the UK to cut animal byproducts out of their stuff iirc, have to think there's more of that on the way
I eat so many oreos that I'd be fat if I didn't fast so much lmao
But they taste fucking terrible
the peanut butter pie ones taste good

Holy fuck. Don't hate the oreos. They are the only reason why I have a reason to live.
im gonna go out and get a big pack to happily om nom down on
Yeah, baby. You just nom that shit.
and I was wondering why oreo filling had this gross powdery texture and a weird taste
when you learn about powdered sugar your world will turn upside down
it's clearly not powdered sugar. They are probably using some cheap dry milk substitute to make these
Powdered sugar icing has pretty much the same texture as oreo filling, except oreos are shelf stable. They are actually not substituting milk at all, but lard. You can just read the ingredients list. Hope you're not doing the antivegan thing where once you find out that something has no animal products, you decide it tastes bad.

no, I just always found oreos disgusting and couldn't figure out what was wrong with them. It's not hard to make a vegan cookie that tastes good
also I've made frosting with powdered sugar before and the texture was just fine
It's vegetable shortening. Icing doesn't contain milk, there is no need to substitute milk with anything cause it's not part of the recipe anyway. The issue is generally butter. The powdery texture is cause it's dry and full of powdered sugar. It's not whipped cream.
I keep looking at A1 steak sauce and as far as I can tell that stuff is vegan too
