As a food science enthusiast with a keen interest in ingredient analysis, I can provide you with an informed answer regarding the composition of Oreo cookies.
Oreo cookies, which are produced by the Nabisco company, have evolved over the years in terms of their recipe. Historically, lard was used in the original recipe due to its properties that contributed to the flakiness and texture of the cookies. However, in response to changing dietary preferences and health concerns, Nabisco has made modifications to the Oreo recipe.
For many years now, Nabisco has not used lard in the production of Oreos. Instead, they have replaced it with vegetable oils, which are considered more healthful and are in line with contemporary dietary guidelines. This change helps to reduce the saturated fat content and aligns with the preferences of consumers who seek products with lower levels of animal fats.
It's always a good idea to check the most recent ingredient list on the packaging or the manufacturer's website to ensure you have the most current information, as recipes can sometimes be updated or modified.

Oreos were made with lard. Under the Jewish dietary laws of kosher, pigs, the source of lard, are a forbidden food. Once Nabisco had removed the lard, mainly for health reasons, going kosher became possible.
