Join Chris and Jill as we serve up a slice of nostalgia (and maybe a heaping spoonful of science) with everyone's favorite childhood treat: Banana Cream Pie Cookies!

But before we dig in, we're taking a trip down memory lane to explore the fascinating history of banana cream pie. We'll uncover its surprising origins (it's not as old as you might think!), and trace its evolution into the iconic dessert we know and love today.

Then, we sink our teeth into the science behind these delectable cookies. What makes that banana filling so creamy and dreamy? We'll be dissecting the magic of Cool Whip, uncovering the clever chemistry that creates its light and fluffy texture. Is it just whipped cream in disguise, or is there more to the story?
