Has anybody-anywhere-ever bought more than one Hostess fruit pie at a time?? I mean, even during my pot smoking munchies faze, one Hostess fruit pie at a time was more than enough!!

You spotted the underlying subtext of that last story!
Those ruffians note that those teenagers look "loaded", and thus must have some good food for the munchies!

You sir, are on to something! I also could only handle one during my past (and occasional) booze-soaked, drug-deranged days!

I have never eaten a Hostess fruit pie. We were strictly a Tastykake™ family, back in the day.

Jeepeers, Cobie and rhino! Clearly it takes years of frequent, steady drug abuse of the sort typical of criminals (or the tween/teen Pov) to develop the level of munchies required to consume large numbers of Hostess Fruit pies!

I've never been able to eat more than one. I had the least nutrition conscience mother in the world. She used to let me Hostess Fruit Pies and Hostess Chocolate pies for breakfast! I was recently in a convenience store and picked one up. I read the label and almost fell over. Surely these are the least nutritious snacks on the planet?

The only Hostess Fruit Pie I thought was even passable was the french apple one that had cinnamon and raisins in it. And that was ridiculously rare. It was like finding a gold doubloon.
Cherry was the worst. I suspect that red Sterno would have tasted more like 'cherry.'
(The lemon was pretty vile as well, but I don't even like real lemon, so I probably wasn't the target audience for chalky yellow semi-fluidic congealed petroleum jelly pretending to be lemon.)

Unlike the fruit pies, I never had any trouble eating two to four Twinkies in a setting. Not so much on the kelp, Kelp.

Don't be ashamed! I had the same habit when my kids were teens! And I didn't even have drugs or anything as an excuse! Well, except I had two teens! :smile:
And unfortunately, my husband likes them, too.
