FAIR LAWN Randy Rauco was in awe on the very first day of his new job at the Nabisco Brand Factory in 1987. He was a young man, in his 20s, and had never seen anything like it.
The giant tower, visible from outside, where the raw materials are stored. The huge mixers that prepare batter for the molding machines. The immense ovens, the length of a football field, that send the aroma of baking cookies to surrounding neighborhoods.

A Must-Read for Patriots: ‘The 1776 Report’
This past fall, President Donald Trump founded the 1776 Commission, charging its members with the task of “cultivating a better education among Americans in the principles and history of our nation.” On Monday, Jan. 18, the commission released its “1776 Report.”
