Oreos

Dark discs, pale center

Oreos are sandwich cookies consisting of two chocolate wafers with a sweet cream filling between them.

The brand name has become nearly generic for this style of cookie.

As a racial slur, Oreo describes a Black person perceived as acting white—black on the outside, white on the inside.

The term is offensive whether used by outsiders or within Black communities.
