Scientists create the “oreometer” that serves to divide an Oreo cookie with the same amount of filling

This will have to be tried at home

Villa del Batido.- Some scientists have managed to create a device to divide the Oreo cookie with the same amount of filling on both sides.

And it is that if there was (or is) a mystery in the world of Garnachas, it is that of the Oreo cookie filling, which could not be divided exactly in half no matter how hard you tried, something that had even been proven by the science as unfeasible.

Meaning, no matter how you open (or divide) the two parts of the cookie, there will always be one side that gets most of the creamy, diet-friendly filling, and this has even been driving scientists crazy for years.

The mystery of Oreo cookies has finally been solved

The reason for this situation is given precisely by the process of how the cookies are made, since the automated machines first put the filling in one half, and then place the other by “crushing” the first, so that the consistency is creamy. there is always more attached to the “original” side.

That is why researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Sciences created a device called an “oreometer” that allows dividing the cookie without fracturing it and obtaining the exact division between its parts (thus, in scientific terms to make it sound more immammable).

The investigation of “Oreology” (yes, that’s how they called it) focused on the possibility of creating a method that would allow dividing the cream in equal parts”, points out the researcher Crystal Owens, who still proudly published his achievement.

“This has always seemed like a mystery to me since I was a kid, and even though as a kid I preferred the half with less cream, I didn’t understand why both sides didn’t come out with the same shake number,” adds Owens, who is paid by the institute for valuable research.

And in case you missed it: a guy took a DNA test and found out that his “uncle” was actually his father, and they must be royal.
