Oreo Cookie Birth - The Place

I said I would follow-up, a little late, but I found it.

As it turns out, The Oreo was born in Manhattan, like many other legacies. According to one Nabisco employee, oreo cookies were first produced in 1912 at the National Biscuit Company facility in Chelsea.

Pyramid its Legacy in Cancun

After cruising down the Hotel Lane in lovely Cancun there was no doubt in my mind that the Mayan pyramid has played a major role in the architectural designs of Cancun's finest buildings (all Hotels); many of which were destroyed in the fury of Hurricane Wilma in 2005.

The tourist moguls of Cancun capitalize and exploit the legacy of the Mayan people. The locals, which I found out where mainly implants from different parts of Mexico and the world (yes, there is a lot of migration to Cancun) survive on the backbone of tourism. Everything in Cancun is for the tourist, the American or Foreign tourist. It's about selling the product of paradise with a mix of a long forgotten past that they hardly know anything about, and if it weren't for the fact the images speak enough to incite most to pay a hefty sum for the sake of 'culture' they wouldn't make as much money as they do.

Now if they could only sell some decent Mexican food, I would go back more often.
