Even the 100th Oreo Includes a Gay Twist

[William769]

It turns out that even the final Oreo in its campaign of 100 clever designs includes a gay reference.

Already the 100th anniversary ad campaign, called "The Daily Twist," had created headlines by including a rainbow-colored cookie in its ode to gay pride. Then it launched designs to celebrate gay artists, and even a tribute to Project Runway.

The much-anticipated last image, just released today, celebrates the anniversary of the first high-five. Few realize the high-five was very likely invented by a gay man.

Los Angeles Dodger Glenn Burke was the first player to come out as gay after leaving the Major Leagues. And during a game on Oct. 2, 1977 versus the Houston Astros, he thrust his hand in the air to greet a teammate rounding the bases for a home run.
