An Ultra-Cool Oreo Separator Machine That Looks Like A Mini Ferris Wheel





In its latest campaign for the popular Oreo cookie,—“ Cookie Vs. Creme”—Nabisco has invited “the world’s best roboticists, artists and tinkerers” to create Oreo separator machines.



Considering that billions of man-hours have been wasted on the simple task of splitting apart Oreos, these machines are a serious attempt to make the world a better place with more efficient cookie-eating.



The third machine in the series is the brainchild of conceptual artists from the London-based collective Dentaku, who created “The Oreo Wheel”, which looks like a miniature Ferris wheel.



Using the rotating motion of the wheel and a pair of simple blades, the machine successfully separates the chocolate cookie and creme parts of Oreos—after many rounds of trouble-shooting.
