HAPPY BIRTHDAY OREO COOKIES!

'The Oreo cookie was born March 6, 1912, when the National Biscuit Company sold its first batch to a grocer in Hoboken, N.J. Today, the delectable treat is sold in 100 countries around the world, topping $2 billion in annual revenue.

First launched as the “Oreo Biscuit,” the name changed first to “Oreo Sandwich,” and then, in 1937, to “Oreo Cream Sandwich.”

The basics of the cookie have remained the same — vanilla cream filling between two chocolate cookies — though the design has been updated and variations such as Double Stuf, Cool Mint, Banana Split and Strawberry Milkshake have come and gone through the years.'
