Many Oreo devotees swear by the double-stuffed. They want more frosting, more cookie, more Oreo.

But, as summer months bring about concerns about maintaining a beach-ready body, some might be shunning their favorite sandwiched cookies for fear of over-indulging. That’s where the brand-new Oreo Thins come in.

According to an Oreo spokesperson, the new cookie will be 7.5mm thick, compared to the original cookie, which boasts a 12.5mm thickness. However, the circumference and creme-to-cookie ration will be about the same as a regular Oreo, as to not throw off the balance you’ve come to know and love.

Though it’s not being marketed as a “diet” Oreo, the new, thinner cookies will only set you back 140 calories for 4 cookies, compared to the original, which contains 160 calories in 3 cookies.

So, if you’re like us and tend to eat 6… or 8… or 10 in a single sitting, these will definitely be a new grocery godsend.
