There's a yuppified version of these that I like to buy at our local co-op. It's so damn pricey that I can only justify the expense by splitting one with mr_cleome-- maybe once every ten days or so. Oh, well. At least it's a local manufacturer.

How do I know its a yuppie target? Notice the wonderful link at the bottom that gives advice on pairing wine with food? I've not clicked the link so I can't be certain that the wine that goes food comes in a 5 litre cardboard box.

The first time I saw him doing stand up, he goes:

I'm indulging in one right now. It's been a long day. They don't actually sell the spinach pie variety where I shop. Maybe I should email them and whine about that.
(Sadly, not a paid endorsement.)

Looks like you could make your own, and it would probably be highly palatable, if you've got a hand with pastry. Although that defeats the purpose of this kind of food - fast, convenient and only mildly disgusting (as opposed to borderline toxic).
I saw a sign yesterday advertising one of these slushy summer drinks that convenience stores sell: "100% Unnatural". The backlash to the healthy food movement has arrived, something like the Roseanne show proclaiming that we're proud to be ignorant.
On the other hand, perhaps there's a yuppie Twinkie, or yuppie versions of other crappy food. The organic Twinkie is a long-standing joke.

I have tried an actual upscale version of a certain popular snack cake, which I dare not name given all the connoisseurs of double entendres that populate this space. Whether it was capital-O "Organic" is anyone's guess.
It was okay. I'm still more a Parisian macaroon woman myself, finances permitting.

I've come to the conclusion pretty much all pre-packaged foods should be avoided. Event he delicious but apparently shrinking Amy's pot pies.
The treatment they use on paperboard to keep it "freezer friendly' is apparently highly toxic and traces are being found in oceans, waterways and fish everywhere. NOT GOOD.
