Visit Visit our website This 1970s television commercial for Sunshine Biscuit products features Hydrox cookies, featuring pure vegetable shortening instead of lard, and “thin“ Krispy Saltine Crackers. Both feature the tagline: “Sunshine tastes better and you can prove it.“ Hydrox is the brand name for a cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookie manufactured by Leaf Brands. It debuted in the United States in 1908, and was manufactured by Sunshine Biscuits for over 90 years. Hydrox was largely discontinued in 1999 three years after Sunshine was acquired by Keebler, which was later acquired by Kellogg’s. In September 2015, the product was re-introduced by Leaf Brands. The similar Oreo cookie, introduced in 1912, was inspired by the Hydrox. We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!
