How long have Oreos been around? In 1912, NaBisCo (National Biscuit Company) released Oreos with the simple idea to put crème filling between two thin chocolate cookies. Since the release of the classic cookie, there haven’t been any major changes to its design.
What’s in the name? The name has shifted from “Oreo Crème Sandwich” to “Oreo Chocolate Sandwich Cookie”, but most of us know them as simply Oreos. Unfortunately, the origins of the name are still unclear. Some at Nabisco claim that it’s a play on the French word for gold (“or”), since the original Oreo package was gold.
