Oreo creme sticks to the same wafer about 80% of the time, however you twist it. MIT engineers twisted 1,000+ cookies in 2022 and traced the cause to manufacturing, not habit: on the line, creme lands on the first wafer before the second is added, giving it extra bonding time.

Oreo's 'Double Stuf' doesn't actually have double the creme. In 2013, American high school students weighed the cookies and calculated the filling was only about 1.86 times the original—a ratio later confirmed by independent re-tests. The maker still insists it's exactly double.

Ancient Roman concrete lasts 2,000 years by healing itself. In 2023 MIT found the lime specks in it were deliberate, not careless. When water enters a crack, the lime dissolves into calcium that reacts with CO2, sealing it as Calcium carbonate.
