One man putting on lipstick like a woman and effeminately clinging to another man. RITZ Crackers is attempting to normalize the transgender lifestyle by airing a commercial that has absolutely nothing to do with selling crackers.

Credit the group One Million Moms with spurring me to brave covid-19-struck Washington, D.C., and make a beeline to the grocery store to purchase some Oreo cookies.

One Million Moms is out of sorts because Oreo has joined with the nonprofit PFLAG — an organization of supportive...

The latest Oreo flavor has arrived - and it's a bit fishy. The new flavor has been rumored on social media for a few days, with many speculating the Oreo packaging was nothing more than an impressive Photoshop job -- but, lucky for us, it's the real thing. An Oreo representative confirmed to Delish the fishy cookies are only being sold at Kroger grocery stores (and, of course, you can get some of the cookies on eBay). While early reviews have been mixed, Swedish Fish fans should probably shop early and often, as the cookies are a limited-time offering. Mondelez...

Oreos are getting a skinny new look, and its maker says the new cookie is a "sophisticated" snack for grown-ups that isn't meant to be twisted or dunked.

The cookies look like regular Oreos and have a similar cookie-to-filling ratio, except that they're slimmer. That means four of the cookies contain 140 calories, compared with 160 calories for three regular Oreos.

Oh, oh, oreo. Ever feel like you could eat the whole bag yourself? According to a new study — you’re not a glutton, you’re addicted. A student at Connecticut College found lab rats that ate oreos were just as strongly associated to them as lab rats that were injected with cocaine or morphine. (Via WNCN) And, this sounds even more dangerous — eating Oreos activated even more neurons in the “pleasure centers” of rats’ brains than those addicted drugs did. (Via YouTube / Oreo)

The portrayal has its roots in American slavery, with defenders...
