Hostess Chocodiles are back!

CHAUNCEY SAYS: "IT TAKES A WHILE TO EAT A CHOCO-DILE"! Chocodiles are back my friends! Well, they've been back , but they seem to be stocked sporadically throughout the year (at least in my neck of the woods). Chocodiles fell off the scene for awhile and reappeared in 2014 as 'Chocodile Twinkies'. I was fortunate enough to stumble upon the latest incarnation while placing my weekly grocery order online. As you can see, Chocodiles have now been re-branded as Fudge Covered Twinkies. 'The Chocodile' appears in a smaller font directly underneath the Twinkies logo as if the Chocodile brand name was an afterthought. I can see why Hostess still wants to throw the name in there, as plenty of people like me who see it, scramble to immediately grab a box. Two great 15 second Chocodile commercials from the 70s.. I remember the Hostess company offering tons of different snack cakes back in the day. Twinkies were pretty much the...

Little Debbie Cherry Fruit Pie review

So I moved forward with my search for a cherry fruit pie that is reminiscent of the old Hostess Cherry Fruit Pies . This week I ordered some Fruit Pies of the Little Debbie variety. Right off the bat, I saw that the picture on the box looked promising (they always do) but I didn't see many cherries in the pie filling. I thought this was kind of strange, because snack cake companies always boast about their pie filling. Pictures on packaging normally reflect a boat load of cherries ready to spill out of the pie, even though the product usually doesn't live up to the hype. Impressive! Little Debbie dedicated 80% of the the panel on the back of the box, to showcase the Michigan cherries they use in their pies. It seems like they are super proud of the product they source. I was getting excited to see what they are working with in these pies. I knew these fruit pies were going to be a bit smaller than your typical fruit pie, but WOW! I placed a Twinkie next t...

Hostess Limited Edition Tiger Tail Twinkies

A friend gave me one of the limited edition Tiger Tail Twinkies the other day and I've got to say I was impressed. I'm a sucker for orange flavored snack cakes, and the orange creme filling was divine. The low key contrast of the sponge cake was a perfect match with the filling. It kind of reminded me of an inside out creamsicle, in soft fluffy snack cake form of course. These are not the Tiger Tails from years past. Those classic but since discontinued snacks were basically a Twinkie with raspberry jelly stripes on the outside, and sprinkled with coconut. The current incarnation sadly only has stripes featured on the packaging. I really do hold out hope they may someday re-release the classic version, but I'm not holding my breath.
