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 funneled the dough and jam into two separate channels which then produced an endless tube of dough encasing jam. This tube was cut into smaller pieces.
