...Oh dear, we've been invaded by Internet silliness, haven't we?

Invaded?

No, my friend.

We are the sillies!

Did you know that Oreos are actually a knockoff of a little known cookie called Hydrox. Oreo was launched in 1912 as an imitation of Hydrox. Hydrox was actually started in 1908. Though they aren't super well known, you can still buy them.

Where can you do you know?

[Tohopekaliga]

Some grocery stores carry them. I think I saw Hydrox at Publix, but I don't normally buy that sort of cookie, so I might be remembering wrong.

Maybe it was Winn-Dixie.

lol I was actually quoting a Steam Powered Giraffe song. "Scary World".

[Potironette]

Ohh I read about Hydrox once. But I had no idea they still existed! Although, "Hydrox" is a pretty bad name for a cookie ^~^'

[Tohopekaliga]

It's a very 1908 idea of a good name.

The name is refering to hydrogen-oxygen: Water. Because they wanted to evoke images of purity.

...Weird choice for a cookie, but that's the early 20th century for you.

[Athilea Majiri]

Honestly, I think it sounds like the name of a boss in World of Warcraft. XD

As far as where to buy them, I don't know. I've never seen them in a store. I have seen where you can buy them online though.

[Potironette]

Ohh, hydrogen-oxygen. dihydrogen monoxide?
...I guess hydrogen and oxygen didn't sound like detergent back then x'D

[Tam I am]

I am a scary thing.
