You have got to be kidding me.

I’ve never once, except as a quote, heard the name of a cookie employed as a racial insult by a white person.

I’ve heard the name of a cookie employed to imply insanity, of course. Who hasn’t? That doesn’t seem to be limited by anything except being of the right age.

Anyone else remember cookie brand names being bandied about?

In one of Barbra Streisand’s movies, she is in a duo with someone and their duo is called Oreo, or The Oreos, or something like that…if I remember correctly.

That’s the first time I heard it in connection with race. (I think the other person was black. It’s been a long time though, so I would appreciate correction if I have this wrong.)
