Reply:The Fig Newton was created in 1891 by Charles M. Roser of the Kennedy Biscuit Company, a Massachusetts-based bakery. The company named many of their products after surrounding communities. The Fig Newton was named after nearby Newton, Massachusetts. It was first simply called the Newton, but the name was changed to Fig Newton in 1898.

Reply:Charles M. Roser was a cookie maker born in Ohio. He won fame for creating the Fig Newton recipe before selling it to the Kennedy Biscuit Works (later called Nabisco).

A Fig Newton is a soft cookie filled with fig jam. A machine invented in 1891 made the mass production of Fig Newtons possible. James Henry Mitchell invented a machine which worked like a funnel within a funnel; the inside funnel supplied jam, while the outside funnel pumped out the dough, this produced an endless length of filled cookie, that was then cut into smaller pieces. The Kennedy Biscuit Works used Mitchell's invention to mass-produce the first Fig Newton Cookies in 1891.



Originally, the Fig Newton was just called the Newton. There is an old rumor that James Henry Mitchell, the funnel machine's inventor, named the cookies after that great physicist, Sir Isaac Newton, but that was just a rumor. The cookies were named after the Massachusetts town of Newton, which was close to Kennedy Biscuits. Kennedy Biscuits had a tradition of naming cookies and crackers after the surrounding towns near Boston. The name changed from Newton to Fig Newton, after the original fig jam inside the cookie gained good reviews. Later the name changed to Fig Newton Cookies.
Reply:isaac newton definitly did not invent fig newtons!!!!!!!!
Reply:No
Reply:yes he did....it is thought that an apple fell on his head, but it was a fig branch
Reply:no.

there are actually other kinds of Newtons. the "fig" part is just a flavor/filling. I know because we currently have "Strawberry Newtons" (but nobody in our house has dared try them!)
Reply:OK, you can't invent gravity maybe discover but not invent and no he didn't invent fig newtons I believe Nabisco did
Reply:1. He didn't invent Fig Newtons.

2. He didn't invent gravity. Just like Benjamin Franklin or Thomas Edison didn't invent electricity. He just created the laws of gravity. It was always there, he was just the first person to study it.
Reply:tell your cousin he is an idiot and then tell him that tell him that Abe Lincoln invented Lincoln Logs. (by the way they were really invented by Frank Llyod Wright's son, John L.)
Reply:Gravity has been around since day one, so how in this wide world did Sir Isaac Newton invent gravity?
Reply:haha don't listen to your cousin anymore
