A Fig Newton is a soft cookie filled with fig jam made possible by a machine invented in 1891.
James Henry Mitchell invented the machine that funneled the dough and jam into two separate channels, producing an endless tube of dough that encased the jam.

Called initially "Newton," its name was later changed to Fig Newton after the Massachusetts town of Newton.
