I am so excited to share that I've learned the Oreo cookie includes an historical Easter egg that is key to understanding THE HISTORY OF ALL COOKIES.

I'm serious. I need to figure out how to really amp this up in the next video, because my head is spinning right now.

Interesting that the cookie has retained the symbology that is part of the Nabisco logo even though Mondelez now owns the Oreo brand.

The founder apparently "found the symbol in a catalog of medieval Italian printers' marks, where it was said to represent the triumph of good over evil." Kinda crazy.

Putting a sleeve of cookies down without having eaten the whole thing in a sugar-fueled manic fugue state is a triumph of good over evil any day 😇
