I originally had this queued up to go live on Valentine&#8217;s Day (because it&#8217;s red) but then we sampled another JSFR which is really a much better Valentine&#8217;s sweet.  So I decided I should swap the reviews around and post this one now and that one later.  Besides who wants to open a package full of omelettes for Valentine&#8217;s Day?  Especially&#8230;Strawberry <strong>Omelettes<\/strong>.  That&#8217;s kinda weird yet amusing and I really would like to have sat in on the promotional brainstorming for this over at DaHu.   I might have suggested Blintz as a better name but then I probably wouldn&#8217;t have gotten these as a Christmas gift from oft Guinea Pig DQ.<\/p>\n<p>Strawberry omelet.  Hee.  LOVE!<\/p>\n<p>Strawberry Omelettes are more or less akin to the rolled cookies we&#8217;re had before in <a href=\"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/?p=387\">Gookie<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/?p=339\">Flute Wafers<\/a>.  Basically, these are round flat crispity cookies that are rolled up into a tube.  The difference with the Omelettes is that they start out a much bigger round flat cookie that is then rolled up.  I&#8217;d say they were half again as big as the other tube cookies.  The Strawberry Omelettes are also less crispity and more airy with a light crunch.<\/p>\n<p>They are just as messy though so be prepared to do a little crumb dusting if you pick up a pack of these.  Or to blow out your keyboard if you happen to put them on your laptop.  Speaking of packs, each behandled box (and yay for the packaging) contains 3 packs of four cookies each.  Not shabby.<\/p>\n<p>As far as taste, the Omelettes are not so sweet at all.  They have a little sweetness but they are more eggy and strawberry tasting than they are sweet tasting.  I kinda like it.  The strawberry is a decent but light strawberry which goes well with the somewhat eggy nature of these cookies.  I&#8217;d say it was more a crepe egginess than an omelet egginess but to each their own.  Perhaps they were going for crepe and missed slightly with omelet.  Whatever the story, the Guinea Pigs and I liked these enough to give them a<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/?page_id=2\">Rating<\/a> of <strong>3.5 wasabi peas<\/strong> out of a possible 5 wasabi peas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11,28,21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-733","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-35-peas","category-cookie","category-sweet"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/733","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=733"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/733\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=733"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=733"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=733"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
