Oreos are a popular treat among young children, but pre-teens and teenagers are less likely to enjoy the sugary snack, so the creative team at Dimension Plus came up with '[Oreo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oreo-twists-lab) Vinyl' -- a musical iteration of Oreos aimed at appealing to young people's passion for music.

Through this campaign, the [classic treat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oreo-dippers) is converted into a tiny, [working record](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samra-origins-vinyl-caf), which when paired with a specialized record player that accompanies it, plays different variations of the Oreo theme song. To achieve a record-like sound, the cookies were engraved with specially formatted grooves that replace the classic branding.

This inventive campaign offers consumers a box of six cookies, each containing a different song, as well as the accompanied record player.
