Sunshine Bakers were the originators of the Hydrox cookie years before Nabisco copied them. Nabisco's Oreos are made with high fructose corn syrup, artificial flavors and other garbage ingredients. I don't buy Nabisco products. I can't wait for the Hydrox to become available again as they were all natural before they disappeared.
It looks like your only choice is Amazon. They are not sold in stores. They sell six 13-ounce packages for $28.57. That's $4.76/package, definitely in the higher price range, but I'll get at least one order.

Yes, but I saw my first one in NY. As a kid, I remember thinking. Wow! What a perfect name!

Jerry, I just don't know where you come up with this stuff, but you do. I can add a few facts. In the summer of 1972, I worked for Sunshine Baking company in NYC as a special assistant and a photographer. (After High School and before College). Sunshine, at the time, was the main competitor to National Baking company, better known as NABISCO. Nabisco made OREO and Sunshine made Hydrox along with stuff like Cheez-It (still made and sold but by a different company). Didn't really follow Sunshine after that, but it seems others bought some of their brands. Small world.

We always preferred Hydrox over Oreos and then there were none! I guess it all falls to not how good your product is, but how well it is marketed. Good to know, and thanks for sharing the information.

Oreos used to be good before they changed the recipe to eliminate those terrible trans-fats...
Before they got rid of the Crisco filling.

That varies by state. Fortunately, we are allowed to dunk in New York. That's why Dunkin' Donuts began here.

[quote=Triplets]Where was Dunkin donuts originated?
And according to my mom, Will Rosenberg started by selling donuts to factory workers in and around Quincy before opening that first restaurant. Oddly enough, Mr. R and my mom shared the same doctor treating obesity. The doc held clinics in North Carolina at NC State or UNC... Can't remember.
Jelly, Please!

Oh, and let's not forget Zwieback toast to dip in your hot chocolate! And the Alaskan commercial fisherman that will remember Darigold canned butter.

A little bit of additional "anti-Oreo" info. For years, Nabisco had a plant on Rt 208 in Fair Lawn NJ where they made a number of products including Oreos. As a long-time resdient of Fair Lawn, we would sit on our front porch in the summer and get a suger high just from the smell of the cookies being backed.
Well, Mondelez, the corporate parent of Nabisco, decided that it would be better to close the NJ plant as well as one n Georgia and move their operations to Mexico. Their reason for doing this is "They say the decision comes as the company focuses its "U.S. biscuit manufacturing footprint to better meet changing consumer needs and growth opportunities." So as of Friday, July 16, your cherished Oreos are now made alongside nachos somewhere in Mexico. And to add insult to injury, 600 former Nabisco employees are now without a job.
