Are Oreo Cookies Really Just a Knockoff Brand?

Weird History Food is opening up a bag of the history of Oreos. Oreo cookies are one of the most recognizable cookies in the world. We're going to show you the entire history of Oreo, not to mention its rival Hydrox, and explore every flavor combination that Oreos have to offer. Get yourself a glass of milk, because there are a lot of Oreos here to eat.

This channel is criminally underrated. Such high production value for a small channel, I respect that greatly.

Would love to see a video about Cheez-It and it’s rival Cheese Nips

The fact Hydrox was actually the first is kind of crazy, we really do see it as an off/value brand

As a kid in the 60s, I loved Hydrox and thought Oreos were too sweet. I liked the fact that they had less filling.

I always thought Hydrox (cookies) tastes better than Oreos.
But I grew up around my grandparents and they always bought what they knew.

I've seen a lot of tubers take on the history of Oreo and Hydrox and I think this was the most informative. Well Done! 👏👏👏👏

If the Weird History videos are voiced by anyone else, I simply don't watch. Your voice gives the videos a completely different feeling - informative yet comedic. Keep up the great voice lol

Hydrox reigns supreme! 🎉 They should have pivoted to international sales… now Oreo is everywhere

[AwfullWaffle]

You skipped the fact that the brothers had been screwed over by the board of nabisco and left to start their own conglomerate after. That is when they made the hydrox and began a century long rivalry that only ended a year ago when nabisco changed the Oreo recipe to make it kosher which was the last thing the Hydrox had going for it.

As a kid, mom would often by Hydrox. I remember them tasting distinctly different from Oreos, especially the cookie part. Of course, I may be getting them confused with the store brand oreo knockoffs.

[BiggerJohnTheSnorlaxGod]

They just make me wanna try Hydrox even more. 😂😂😂😂

Was it really necessary to take deliberate steps to squash a gimmicky (and most likely limited) re-release of Hydrox cookies? Seems like a really petty and childish move by a company that clearly holds the entire market for sandwich cookies.

"The one and only Oreo cookie."

Well, except for that other one. 😁

(Do one on the Fig Newton!)

[the_hiroman]

I'd buy Hydrox if only I could find them anywhere (living outside the US).

I gotta say, not a big fan of Oreos BUT the mint Oreos are FANTASTIC. Have you ever had a mint Oreo Blizzard??? It's life-changing.

🥺❤️ I miss the red velvet Oreo cookie. They were so delicious, like a delicious dream!!!

[lindacoolbaugh]

As much as I like Oreo's, I really loved Hydrox. I just thought they tasted better. As usual, great video!

[tiasmith]

Archway cookies use to be sold loose then they started packaging them. I remember getting the windmill cookies from the cookie bin and bagging them myself in late 80s.

[BitAlchemy]

My Mom actually grew up with Hydrox cookies, so when I was a kid she used to buy those and lemme tell you, they were truly superior...oh well Oreo's are still great!

You know if Hydrox didn’t focus on being the original they probably could’ve surpassed Oreo, but instead they drowned in the ocean of salt
