Wikipedia: Newtons (cookie)
Newtons are a Nabisco-trademarked version of a pastry (biscuit in the UK) filled with sweet fruit paste. Fig Newtons were the most prominent (fig rolls filled with fig paste). They are produced by an extrusion process. Their distinctive shape is a characteristic that has been adopted by competitors, including generic fig bars sold in many markets.
