Attention Oreo Buffs – It’s Cookie WAR!!
Did you know that today is National Oreo Cookie Day?
True Story: The sandwich cookie we now know as Oreo was originally invented 4 years earlier by the Sunshine Biscuit Company. Known as Hydrox, the cookie has more chocolate, no unhealthy oils (unlike Oreo), no corn syrup (unlike Oreos) and a better flavor than Oreos.
Hydrox became super popular, attracting the attention of Nabisco who stole the Hydrox concept and substituted in lesser ingredients to make a bigger profit. That’s when the cookie war between Hydrox and Oreo began.
Because of its superior ingredients and flavor, Hydrox was winning the war until the 1950’s, when Oreo told grocery stores that if they carried Hydrox, they would not be allowed to carry ANY Nabisco brands whatsoever.
The Mom and Pop Hydrox struggled after that, winning several lawsuits against Nabisco but getting buried in a pile of legal debt and rulings that were not enforced.
These days if you want to try Hydrox, you’ll have to checkout Amazon.
