What a funny name! How many snacky cakes can we name? One per post, please. Hugs, Devlyn
I had to look those up on Google images. I've heard the name before but was never quite sure what, exactly, they were.
You folks sure do have some strange names for things, lol.
Whilst looking through there though, I found this, and had to do a bit of a double-take. Is this a joke product or something?

I don't like anything cake or dessert based, so I'm really not au fait with the brands.
You did well, carnivore! Since this is another post, Sno-Balls! Hugs, Devlyn

OMG Ho-Ho's!!! No, they're not a joke, they are yummy!! I used to have those pretty often, until they (like all Hostess products) went over a dollar per package (Ho Ho's had 3 inside, most other Hostess things had 2...Cupcakes, Twinkies, Sno-Balls, etc) Now they're about $1.49 where I live (Seattle), too much $$$ for fluff.
Outlet stores FTW!!
And Zingers are Ok, but I preferred the original Hostess "Tiger Tails" (raspberry Twinkies, with a coconut spiraled outside) Can't find them anymore....

Assuming that's not a photoshop, that lady didn't get that way because of sweets. I forget the name of that condition, but notice how her legs are huge, compared to the rest of her? There's a medical reason for that. I knew a woman once who, from the waist up was a total model...but from the waist down she was HUGE (although not this big).
Bonus question! How many squiggles on a Hostess cupcake? Hugs, Devlyn

In southern California we have several bakeries that cater to the Hispanic population
One popular brand is:

I've seen those...they're called "Suzy Q's" in my neck of the woods...

And these are called "Ding Dongs"!
(https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimgsrv.bigcountry100.com%2Fimage%2Fkolv%2FUserFiles%2FImage%2FBob%2Fhostess_ding_dong.jpg&hash=a6d81b9eaddcc502852182c9c29f08a6f8f3d02e)
There's no difference between the flavors...Cupcakes, Ding Dongs, Suzy Q's, Ho Ho's...the chocolate cake, the frosting, the creamy filling...only difference seems to be the thickness and placement of the parts. (Ho Ho's have the thinnest chocolate shell, while the cupcakes have perhaps an excessively thick shell. Suzy Q's don't have any chocolate shell, it's just straight cake and filling)
Drake's was a New England/New York-based baker, which is now owned by Interstate Bakeries Corp, which also owns Hostess.
Does this Drake's product look familiar?

I'm at the store today and Funny Bones are on sale, so I grab a box. At the checkout, the kid says "These are awesome if you freeze them." Sounds smart to me, I like frozen deliciousness! Hugs, Devlyn
