P.S.

Chinese Oreos

Since I feel bad completely abandoning the reason I started the blog in the first place, here's something interesting I found out:

Oreos are the most popular cookie in China. No joke. It wasn't easy for Kraft to enter the Chinese cookie market. For one thing, Americans like their cookies super sweet and that just doesn't fly in China. They also had to repackage the cookies because the average Chinese person can't afford to buy three sleeves of Oreos at once. Kraft also changed the shape of the cookie (which seems like sacrilege to me) into a wafer stick that matched other popular cookies.

Sounds like I'll be writing more about food and culture... Have suggestions? Post a comment!
