You may love Oreos [1], whether dunked in milk, crumbled over ice cream, or crumbled into pie crust. Despite the vast ways you've learned to enjoy the cream-filled sandwich cookie, have you ever stopped to think about its rich history? These fun facts will allow you to see the cookies in a whole new light.

1. The origin of the name "Oreo" is unknown. Although, one Oreo exec says the name mimics the two O-shaped cookies [2] that make the sandwich. Others claim [3] the "re" comes from the "cream."
2. Oreos are a total ripoff of Hydrox [4], the original cream-filled chocolate cookie, which came out in 1908. Oreos weren't released until 1912 [5].
3. Double-Stuf are actually 1.86 times more stuffed [6] than regular Oreos. Do you feel slightly cheated?
4. To date, Oreo [7] has over 42 million Facebooks followers. In comparison, The New York Times [8] has 13 million.
5. Oreo's first crazy flavor was Birthday Cake [9], released in 2012 for its centennial celebration. Since then, the company releases new flavors quarterly, but our favorites will always be cotton candy and marshmallow crispy [10].
