    my wife and oldest son still keep a supply here . My wife likes the banana flavor ones .
    as a kid it was a big deal to get a moon pie and RC on the weekends
    also the moon pies were big [^] not like the 1/2 size we get now [:(]
    as for me once it a great while I will still eat a moon pie if all the other junk food is gone [;)]

    I thought federal law required Moon Pies be consumed ONLY with R-o-C Co-Cola. [:D]

    I heard a story back in the 50's about two cotton farmers in Alabama. One had modernized his farm with all the new farming equipment; the other was still farming with a mule and manual labor. The modern farmer was always giving the manual labor farmer a hard time about hanging on to the old ways.

    One day the modern farmer was driving down the road on his shinny new tractor and saw the old time farmer sitting on the top rail of a fence. He pulled over to exchange greetings.

    The old time farmer asked the modern farmer how things were going with his modern machinery. He said "not too good right now, I threw a rod in my cotton picker and it cost me over five hundred dollars".

    The old time farmer was laughing so hard when he slapped himself on the knee he fell off the fence. The modern farmer looked down at him and asked "what's so funny about that?"

    The old time farmer said "I just threw a rod in my cotton picker and all it cost me was a R-o-C Co-Cola and a Moon Pie."

    I'm glad to see that someone still remembers how to say RC Cola the correct way.

    In East Tennessee you'd hear some people say "give me a Moon Pie and a yeller dope". They were referring to an orange soft drink. Soft drinks were called dopes by a lot of the old country people which was due to the Coca Cola Company putting Coke in their drinks in the early days.

    I go to Mardi Gras in Fairhope, Alabama. The Parades comes right in front of Moms house. There are no mammalian protuberances on exhibit. I have been to those parades in NOLA but they are scary...

    Speaking of Hostess Fruit Pies!

    For a couple of years I was addicted to the lemon fruit pie crescent wedges with the white sugary glaze! ohhhhhh them things gave me a buzz that I couldn't find from anything else!

    It took extreme cold turkey willpower to get off those evil things!

    And bye the way, just reading the list of ingrediance and # of calories contained, knowing that it would take an advanced chemistry set to duplicate!

    Took the sting out of my D T's.
