Oreo unveils three flavors for 'My Oreo Creation' contest

There's a science behind dipping cookies in milk, and researchers at Utah State University say they've figured it out. They spent two weeks in search of the ideal dipping time for an Oreo cookie. They tried dipping a variety of cookies — everything from graham crackers to Nutter Butters and, of course, Oreos — several hours a day, for two weeks. They wanted to understand how cookies absorb liquids and how long it takes to get to maximum capacity.

Nabisco just unveiled the three finalists in its "My Oreo Creation" contest.

Those flavors are: 

  • Pina colada, which Nabisco describes as having a pineapple-coconut creme filling
  • Cherry cola, which features chocolate cookies and a dual-layer, red-and-white creme filling
  • Kettle corn, which features icing studded with puffed millet pieces

The new flavors will not be available until May, then fans can vote on their favorite.

The creator of the winning flavor gets a $500,000 prize.
