(2,282 posts)Would seriously be tempted to break my diet:
Hostess chocolate cupcakes
Ding Dongs
I'd probably be tempted:
Fruit pies (apple)
No problem saying no:
Twinkies (although I might be tempted to try a bite of a fried one)
Sno balls
The rest I've never tried, but really have no interest in.

(81,266 posts)Passing off a fruit pie as dessert is fraud in my book.
Once my mother made a cherry pie instead of a cake for my birthday and
I thought the world had ended. I had looked forward to having cake for months.
I just stared at the fruit pie like it was liver and onions.

(4,560 posts)Most of those I've never even tried, and those that I have was over 40 years ago. Didn't like them then, know I wouldn't like them now.

(81,266 posts)I had no idea what she was talking about but it didn't sound very nutritious.
Of course when I was young I liked a big coke and bag of popcorn for lunch.
So I suppose I cannot talk her choices.

(81,266 posts)Is it chocolate? Is it more like a cake or cookie?
Skittles
(171,713 posts)and chocolately - like I said, I should be all over it but I find them very dry and surprisingly not very tasty

(7,669 posts)vending room for a snack. I used to buy a fruit pie and an ice cream sandwich, eat the cookies off the ice cream sandwich, heat the fruit pie in the microwave then put the remaining ice cream on the hot fruit pie. Tasted great at about 2am trying to get the trucks loaded out. Dont touch any of them anymore.
