Yes, all of that stuff is awful… until you eat a gummy, then it becomes your life force.
When I was little Zebra cakes were my jam. I tried them again a few years ago, and they did not hold up
Palm oil ruined most of these. Leaves that greasy film in your mouth.
All of this is a superdose of ultra processed additives rolled in preservatives and denatured carbs artificially flavored with the metal parts used for pouring and assembly. Nothing was lost.
I will eat toasted Poptarts once in a while, but I think I enjoy the aroma more then the taste.
When I was a kid I LOVED oatmeal creampies. Now that I’m an adult I still love creampies, just not the oatmeal ones.
I tried twinkies because of zombieland.
Major disappointment.
A lot of the US stuff really is an acquired taste. If you didn’t grow up with it, there’s a fair chance it won’t work for you.
I can’t and I don’t anymore. My sweet treat is frozen blueberries with 2% milk, nuts, and cinnamon.
Nothing in this picture is worth getting fat over. And, it all tastes so fake once you start paying attention. Yes, disgusting.
I thought those little debby Swiss roles were disgusting when I was a kid.
I loved all of the hostess stuff but I haven’t bought any in over a decade because fuck Union busters.
Always has been 🧑🚀🔫👨🚀
Never heard of any of the products in this picture, except I’ve heard of Twinkies but only because of Zombieland guy that was obsessed with them. I’d probably try one if you gave me one for free, just to see if it was any good.
None of it looks very appetising though tbh. I like real food not this fake american shit
Yeah exactly, tbh even as a kid I probably wouldn’t have been that interested in those, I was always more into my cheese and my saucisson, only exceptions I go rabid for at any age on the sweet side are kinder and Nutella lmao.
I still have a problem with pastires from the bakery. So it’s a good thing the nearest bakery is 50 miles away.
But yeah, I have little tolerence for sweet anymore.
I can only handle the nutty buddy.
I wouldn’t say disgusting but definitely not as good as one remembers them to be. I don’t know if that is your palette getting more nuanced and things getting more shitty.
Ho hos / swiss rolls / ding dongs hold up
someone gave me a twinkie on halloween… wow… not sure if it’s enshittification or nostalgia but goddamn, greasy as fuck flavorless foam snack jfc
I’ve been attributing it to enshittification. At a minimum, changing recipes
When the Twinkie brand was bought out from bankruptcy, I tried it again for the first time in a long while. Had the same reaction as you
In the 70s I seem to remember twinkles having a banana stuffing that was infintielty better than the shitty vanilla. They have been enshittifying for decades.
now we have two points. soon we’ll have data!
