Does anyone know how many calories are in an Oreo cookie?

Just the cookie part without the white part in the center...lol

I don't eat the middle part cause it tastes yuckie... so when I enter 2 or 3 cookies on my foodlog, it's always going to be inaccurate.

I say go ahead and be inaccurate. A few extra calories that you didn't really eat will make up for any calories you're underestimating.

well, if you really want to know..i'd say to weigh the oreo cookies with the cream, scrape it off and then weigh the cookies. So, if they weigh 28g each for example and without the cream they weigh 24g, then the cream weighs 4g....4g of sugar is 15calories, so that would be 15 calories less per cookie if you didn't eat the cream.

I think the best thing to do is either eat the cream, or just overestimate the calories in them by counting it as a regular oreo.

Hope this helps.

I don't like the creamy filling either -and it is probably the higher calorie part.  I buy chocolate animal crackers, which are fairly similar to the cookie part of an oreo.  Here's the nutrition facts for them: http://www.fatsecret.com/calories-nutrition/s tauffers/chocolate-animal-crackers.  I would weigh the oreo part that you eat, and enter in the nutrition fact for the animal crackers for the same weight.

Wait, I just found nutrition facts for the oreo without the cream: http://www.thedailyplate.com/nutrition-calori es/food/generic/oreo-cookie-without-the-cream

Cool!

wow i didnt think the chocolate cookie would be that low in cals/fat

I didn't either, but I know the cream has to be pretty high - it tastes like shortening with sugar mixed in.  And really, it is not that big a portion...but I don't know how trustworthy that site is, so...go with what you feel, I guess.Wink

there are plenty of cookies that you can buy that're just like the oreo cookies w/o the filling, why not just buy those?

Thanks everyone!

Thanks for that website, puh8suwrux. I didn't think anywhere would actually list an oreo specifically!

I live in an area with kind of small options in biscuits/cookies/crackets compared to the US, so the oreo is really the only dark chocolate biscuit I can get. There are cookies that are kind of dark, but not as dark as the ore & completely different texture. They are super crunchy and thick & big, not like the oreo at all!
