The Effect of Type of Oreo Cookie on the Mass of the Filling
Purpose
This lab aimed to determine if Double-Stuff Oreo cookies were really “double the stuff” of a regular Oreo cookie. In this lab, we compared the mass of the filling for both Oreos to determine if the mass of the Double-Stuff Oreo’s filling was twice that of the regular Oreo’s filling. The independent variable tested in the lab was the type of Oreo cookie. The dependent variable in the lab was the mass of the stuffing in grams. Two control variables are the scale we used and the same brand of cookies. My hypothesis was if I measured the mass of the filling in the Double-Stuff and regular Oreos, then it would show that Double-Stuff Oreos do not have “double the stuff” because the mass of the Double-Stuff Oreo’s filling would be less than double the mass of a regular Oreo’s filling. My group chose this hypothesis because we believed that the filling in Double-Stuff Oreos is less than twice the mass of the filling in regular Oreos.

In trial 2, the mass of the filling in the Double-Stuff Oreo was 1.9 times the mass of the filling in the regular Oreo (Lab Data Table). In trial 3, the mass of the filling in the Double-Stuff Oreo was 2.1 times the mass of the filling in the regular Oreo (Lab Data Table). The average mass of the filling in the Double-Stuff Oreo was 2.1 times that of the filling in the regular Oreo (Lab Data Table). Additionally, Anglia (2022), claims that Double-Stuff Oreos have “ just a little more than twice as much” filling compared to regular
