Dominos Oreo Dessert Pizza...ever had it?
I've seen the ads lately and it looks decent, I don't know if I'd like it though. Nor do I like Dominos out of the chain pizza places...

Anybody here tried one already and can comment on it?

But it sounds like something concocted in a pothead’s dorm room VERY late at night.

This is heresay, so take what you will from it.
Two of my friends, with whom I have frequent lunches and dinners and therefore know their tastes, tried it last week. They reported that it was sickeningly sweet and not at all what it looked like in the commercials.
As an aside, you can make your own dessert pizza in the time it would take to deliver one to your door. Roll or press flat a tube of sugar cookie dough onto a cookie sheet. Add toppings (including Oreos if you like, although I would scrape out the filling or it'll end up too sweet). Bake for however long at whatever temp the package says. Ta da!

My fiance' and her best friend encountered one of these so-called "dessert pizzas" first hand and said it looked and tasted utterly disgusting.
I cannot imagine pigging out on Domino's pizza only to chase it down with a couple slices of this culinary masterpiece.

Ditto. When I first saw the commercial my reaction was, how dare they use the words Oreo and pizza in the same sentence ! The whole point behind eating Oreos is the thrill of separating them, then eating the frosting inside by scraping them with your teeth. This is followed by eating the now bare, chocolate cookie. Everyone knows this !!!

While these methods both seem to be widely accepted practices of Oreo consumption, I think it is safe to say that not too many folks are keen to ingest their Oreos in crumbled form, on top of greasy pizza dough and slathered in pasty, overly sweetened icing substance. @:-)

A coworker of mine had one recently and brought leftovers in for lunch. He loved it, but his idea of fine dining is a fist full of white bread and a hunk of Velveeta.
Personally, I would not ingest that slop.
