Oreo
An Oreo is a popular type of cookie manufactured by Nabisco Corporation, introduced in 1912. It is very similar to Sunshine's competing Hydrox cookie, introduced in 1908, which having lost market share to Oreo for years, was withdrawn in 1996. The modern design of the "Oreo" was developed in 1952 by William A. Turnier. It consists of two circular chocolate wafers with a sugary white filling (commonly referred to as "cream," although it is technically not) sandwiched between them. Originally, Oreos were mound-shaped; hence the name "oreo" (Greek for "hill"). The modern design of the Oreo allows it to be eaten in several ways. Many people twist apart the wafers and eat the filling first; others eat the cookie without taking it apart.
