Fine in a portion — worth keeping an eye on.

A standard serving of three Oreo cookies has about 14 g of added sugar. The cream filling is largely sugar and fat whipped together, and the dark wafer, despite its bitter cocoa look, is also sweetened — both parts contribute roughly equally.

The serving size on the label (three cookies) is smaller than how most people actually eat them — a sleeve or a full row of six doubles the total fast, and dunking in milk adds more sugar on top if it's flavoured milk.

They're fairly close — the cream filling is mostly sugar and fat, and the dark wafer is also sweetened despite its bitter cocoa colour.
How much sugar is in a full sleeve of Oreos?
A full row of cookies can easily run 25-30 g or more, since most people eat well past the three-cookie label serving.
