Etymology
Oreo was created as a brand name for Nabisco's sandwich cookie in 1912, and people are not sure exactly why they chose it. A helpful way to remember Oreo is to picture two round O chocolate wafers holding white cream in the middle, so the name now stands for the chocolate sandwich cookie with a sweet cream filling.
