  • Tuesday March 6, 2012: Shawn Warren, president of Kraft Foods China, back row right, and children cut the birthday cake for Oreo cookie's 100th anniversary celebration in Shanghai, China.

   

  Happy 100th anniversary to the Oreo cookie! 

  
  

  There’s nothing more delicious, or more perplexing than an Oreo. 

  For starters, how in the world are you supposed to eat the thing? Do you much right into the middle of the cookie or do you follow the twist, lick and dunk method? 

  The Oreo was created 100 years ago at a Nabisco factory in New York City. And honestly, not all that much as changed. 

  The chocolate wafers still feature twelve flowers surrounding the Nabisco logo. The Oreo is 29 percent cream, 71 percent cookie. 

  And more than 345 billion wafers later, it is still the nation’s favorite cookie. 

  According to our partners at the Fox Buiness Network, the Oreo's owner, Kraft Foods, says the cookie brings in $2 billion a year in sales from around the world. 

  Oreos are sold in 100 different countries and are most popular here in the U.S., followed by China and Venezuela.

  The Oreo name has been shrouded in mystery – although there is some speculation the cookie derived its name from the Greek word meaning “pretty darned tasty.”
