Do Americans really?

Little Debbies are dangerously cheap

How do you make crispy rice?

>>14305605
My friend is in the army and told me about when he was in boot camp there was a black guy with bad acne and all the drill sergeants called him star crunch.

For me

I like these but they are sickeningly sweet

I loved those oatmeal cookie cream sandwiches as a kid, but as an adult it's too soft and sweet. Little Debbies are for little kids.

>ITT fatties.

You're a fat retarded numbskull

>>14306981
calm down clem nobody is trying to take away your refined processed sugar.

Why does every food in America either taste extremely salty, extremely sweet, or extremely synthetic? There is no nuance when it comes to food. It's just an extreme blast of one flavour with nothing else discernible even though the ingredient list is gigantic.

you forgot about swiss rolls!

It reflects Americans' black-and-white mentality on every other matter. Capitalist or Communist. Christian or Atheist. Liberal or Conservative. Narrowing the range of thought to be a more distracted proletariat.

>>14307034
Because these are cheap mass produced confections, and every nation on the planet has copied the business model

>>14307034
it doesn't. god damn you foreigners keep posting this seething bullshit it's so fucking pathetic and boring

>>14307040
That does make sense. I also notice that Americans love "cherry flavoured" things but they taste nothing like actual cherries. It is the same artificial blast of something that only they consider cherry flavoured. Pic related is a prime example. Everything cherry flavoured tastes like whatever chemical abomination they use in this.

>>14307040
super obsessed

>>14307048
It's artificial cherry, retarded gook. Artificial cherry out of all the artificial flavors, is actually one of the closer ones. The ones that taste nothing at all like the real thing are grape, strawberry, and watermelon. And of course "blue raspberry" which is just a completely made up flavor.

I dreamt of the original hostess fruit pies last night, the fried ones with the magic man on the front. Feelsbadman.

Baste

There used to be a Hostess outlet in my hometown RIP in Piece

when I was a kid Star crunch used to be nearly twice the size they are now and you could buy giant ones that were as big as a moon pie.

Moon Pie sux

>>14305605
I ate these up as a young fat child. I had one not long ago however and they were pretty bad.

>>14305867
The walnuts definitely made them better but I ate a lot more of the cosmic variety

>>14310952
lel
my ex loved them but I never understood it

>>14310968
I thought these were absolutely fantastic when I was a kid. I never wanted to be this person, but now that I'm an adult I think they suck. They barely have any flavor.

>>14305650
Fucking hilarious

I miss these

>>14307934
>>14305874
Where did it all go wrong lads? We have to go back

>>14311821
Because people are retarded and thought baked pies are better for you... except if baked you can eat 60 of them and they taste like utter shit. I tried making them at home before keto and they looked like pus-ridden tumors.

>>14305608
I swear, they were the same price for 20 years. It was bizarre.

>>14305605
You mean these

>>14312772
No you are right. From the 80s all the way to the mid 00s they were 25 cents. They had it printed on the label.

>>14305605
these are better

Step aside for the one true king plebs

One of my earliest memories as a kid was going to a friends house to play and while we were having a tea party (on "real" china) she suddenly asks me if I'd like cake to go with my tea and I followed her to the kitchen and she pulled out a box of Star Crunch and they blew my little 4 year old mind right out of my skull. Especially when she microwaved them for a few seconds to heat up the caramel.

I had totally forgotten about this memory. Thanks OP. What a weird thing to remember.

>>14313114
And then you fucked right?

>>14313162
.....yes.

>>14310952
Yes it does I was just saying that Star crunch used to be as big as one

>>14307029
Thanks I needed that

>>14305883
