You can still buy Hydrox Cream Filled Cookies.

Hydrox is the brand name for a cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookie currently owned and manufactured by Leaf Brands.

It debuted in the United States in 1908, and was manufactured by Sunshine Biscuits for over 90 years.

In 1912 when Oreos hit grocery store shelves, they were actually the second chocolate sandwich cookie to do so, because Hydrox cookies debuted in 1908.

The latter was manufactured by Sunshine Biscuits, while Oreos were and still are manufactured by Nabisco.

The Hydrox cookie is more crunchy with a stronger chocolate taste, while Oreo cookies are a little more crumbly but with more sweetness.

The similar Oreo cookie, introduced in 1912, is an imitation of the original Hydrox.

The Hydrox name came from combining the words hydrogen and oxygen, which Sunshine executives thought evoked purity.

Others thought it sounded more like a laundry detergent.”
