The origin of the Oreo cookie
The history of this iconic cookie dates back to 1912 when the National Biscuit Company, now known as Nabisco, introduced it to the market. However, the inspiration for this delicious cookie came from another variant called “Oreo Biscuit,” developed by Sunshine Biscuits in 1908. Nabisco acquired the formula and adapted it, creating what we now know as the Oreo cookie.

Since its creation, this cookie has been known for its round shape and distinctive embossed design on both sides, with a creamy white filling inside.
Over time, the cookie has evolved and adapted to meet the tastes of its consumers. One of the first and most significant changes occurred in the 1970s with the launch of the double-stuffed version. Later, in the 1990s, the Golden Oreo was introduced, offering a delicious vanilla flavor while keeping the signature cream filling.
What is the white part of the Oreo cookie?
According to the ingredient list on the product packaging, the famous white filling that delights consumers is made from a blend of sugar, high fructose corn syrup, soy lecithin, palm oil and/or canola oil.
What does the Oreo cookie symbol mean?
On the design of the cookies, in the center at the top, there is a kind of cross with two bars, which refers to the logo of Nabisco, the company responsible for production in the U.S. and Latin America. However, this symbol is similar to the well-known Lorraine Cross.
The Lorraine Cross was an emblem used in the Middle Ages, symbolizing the triumph of good over evil or the separation between the two. It is believed that this same symbol was used by the Templars during their invasion of Jerusalem when they decided to launch a crusade to expel the Turks from the city.
