Road Runner Posted August 12, 2016 Share #1 Posted August 12, 2016 When I was a kid (mid 20th century), the banana flavor was almost tolerable, but in fact, the MoonPie was a poor substitute for the magnificent Hostess Twinkie, the most desired of all packaged snack treats back in the day.

Zealot Posted August 12, 2016 Share #6 Posted August 12, 2016 I never cared much for twinkies. But I did like the chocolate moon pies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted August 12, 2016 Share #8 Posted August 12, 2016 We didn't have moon pies when I was growing up. Our big treat was a Drakes Yodel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changes in the recipe, for whatever reasons, have resulted in a modern Twinkie that doesn't taste nearly as good as the original Twinkie of my youth. Chocolate MoonPies, OTH, have always looked and tasted liked crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralphie ★ Posted August 12, 2016 Share #10 Posted August 12, 2016 Those crème filled chocolate cupcakes with white frosting were the best. You're right, RR, Little Debbie's are a very poor substitute for Hostess. Even the TastyKakes so much lauded in the Philly area fall a little short of Hostess, IMNSHO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
