The Cross of Lorraine design gave rise to the Nabisco logo, which eventually became the European symbol of quality. On the cookie you can see this logo as the circle that contains the brand name Oreo and a line crossed off by two dashes on top. Mind blowing, right?
Even the four triangles surrounding a dot is a pattern that was associated with the Crusades. It was called the Cross Pattee. This symbol distinguished the Knights from other soldiers when they embedded it on their attire.
There is whole debate as to how our favorite cookie got its name. Continuing the Templar association, some claim that Oreo is made of ‘Or’ and ‘Eo,’ the former meaning dawn or light in Hebrew and the latter meaning the same in Greek. Another theory proposes that ‘re’ is pulled from the word ‘cream’ and then inserted between the two O’s of ‘chocolate.’ Thus, O-RE-O. Interesting, correct?
Well, you can buy whichever theory best suits you, while I go and buy another packet of Oreo!

You will poop BLACK for a spell...
Me dino ate two leftover porkchops today. Later today I bought three more. Those are in the freezer because yesterday I bought barbecue pork ribs alaredy cooked at~wait for it~PigglyWiggly!
Ribs are in the fridge. All I got to do is microwave them until hot tomorrow,
Elmer Fudd speak reminds me of spending a highschool year at a military naval academy. A kid that was a cadet ensign told my class, "You will obey all miwatawee wules and wegawations."
On the first day another kid with a speech impediment told my parents, "I just wuv it here at Admiral Fairygut Academy." That's Farragut~not Fairygut! But Mama thought he was cute.
Those were the only two kids there with a speech impediment but that was not the only reason I didn't care to spend another year there.
At least it kinda prepared me for being drafted into the Marines when they were doing that during 1969. Yeah, that's when I was wondering what the Navy Department had against me.
Besides her metal nose hose, she has a horizontal tattooed line of some kinda weird writing near the back of her neck.
Got to thinking maybe she's an AI android. Instead of coffee, she just needs a 9 volt zap to get her up in the morning.
But if she is indeed human, me old dino has no idea why she thought it smart to screw up her looks.
I wonder if somewhere on that oreo cookie is the answer to your question: AI android or Human, . . .which way will the cookie crumble?
In some cases, I've heard a couple admit that they wanted to be less "pretty". The stories I've run across talking to people personally. From grandfathers, to uncles, to step fathers, even real fathers... And the scars it leaves behind... We will burn for what we have allowed to happen to children... (Sorry, that took a dark turn...)
If I had to pick a favorite it would be the Clinton one. Obviously, he has had too much Bud Light.
Crypto-reo Demons.and Tracking Cookies?
From now on, put your oreos in a metal bread box . . .
I thought you were the kind of food experimentalist who would try to fry Gatorade.
That would align with my baked Jell-O experiments.
Also, (for those old enough to remember the commercials) I've held M&M's long enough to refute that the milk chocolate melts in your mouth not in your hands, and I ate just one Lay's potato chip, timed for an hour not to eat another one.
OMG!!! Some of your best -
