NATIONAL OREO COOKIE DAY
I am so excited to let you know there is a National Oreo Day which is March 6th. Everyone has there favorite cookies and Oreo Cookies are mine and both Suzzane and Charlie love them as well.
I would like to ask you if your ready to celebrate this Holiday by having your glass of milk handy. Although if my mom was here she would like a glass of Coffee to dunk her cookies in.
This day is recognized across the nation each year on March 6th. Now, all I want to know is why didn’t I know this when Suzzane was alive so she could have celebrated with me?
Here is some information for those that haven’t ever had a Oreo sandwich cookie. They are made up of two chocolate disks containing a sweet cream filling. The Oreo cookie has become the best-selling cookie in the United States.
Here is a fun tidbit I would like to share with you. The National Biscuit Company (today known as Nabisco) first developed and produced the “Oreo Biscuit” in 1912 at its Chelsea factory in New York City. Today, the block on which the factory was located is known as “Oreo Way”.
- The name “Oreo” was first trademarked on March 14, 1912.
- The first Oreo cookies in the United States sold for 25 cents a pound in clear glass topped novelty cans.
- In 1912, the Oreo Biscuit was renamed to “Oreo Sandwich”.
- In 1948, the Oreo Sandwich was renamed to “Oreo Creme Sandwich”.
- William A. Turnier developed the modern-day Oreo design in 1952 to include the Nabisco logo.
- Nabisco’s principal food scientist, Sam Procello, developed the modern Oreo cookie filling.

Grab a glass of milk and a handful of Oreos to enjoy and use #NationalOreoCookieDay to post on social media.
I have a question for you do you use Oreo Cookies in recipes you create? If so what do you make with them? What is your favorite beverage to have when eating a Oreo Cookie and why?
