Their research found it must have something to do with manufacturing, because the cream always sticks to the same side of every cookie in a package. It doesn't matter how you twist or pull them.

If you want to win a bet by predicting the side the cream will stick to, just test one Oreo in a pack, and then bet accordingly.
