When is an Oreo not an Oreo? When it's a Chinese Oreo.
No, that isn't a racist joke, at least not as far as we can tell. It's just our take on the Chinese version of the iconic chocolate-sandwich snackable. Branding or not, the stacked chocolate-wafer cookie that's masquerading under the Oreo name in the world's most populous country isn't an Oreo, or at least not the Oreo Americans have been horking down by the boxful for nearly a century. It's still a pretty damn good cookie, though.
The Chinese won't eat an American cookie but if they steal if and make a ripoff version and make it their own. They'll eat it. How patriotic!
