I've seen Tastykakes at my local Walmart, but I don't really need to make friends with any other sugary concoctions. TastyKakes market will continue to slowly expand to cover all of the East Coast. The company hubby works for bought them & are expanding the product to new markets based on when they acquire new plants to make the product.

They're past the East Coast, I'm on the Gulf Coast They've been here a while, I've just resisted the temptation to try them. About the only temptation I've managed to resist.

Poutine without the cheese curds, essentially.

Scrapple is us? I thought it is German...oh, yeah...pretzels are German as well Yuengling! WOW! My fav even before I knew it is us! Pennsylvania Dutch has a lot of influence on the regional foods. When I first saw you use the word "Tastykake!" in an earlier post, I missed the exclamation point. What I saw was 'Tastykakel'. I thought it was some type of Japanese food word like teriyaki or sukiyaki.

When Flowers bought them, they started making them in their Georgia & Alabama plants. when they bought the Wonder bread/commercial bread products from Hostess, they also got plants that they added Tasty Kakes production to.

A Phila.-based client sent our department a box of goodies from there last Christmas and the Tastykakes were barely touched. I finally threw them out in March when, despite the preservatives, they started to develop mold. And here's what I miss from my roots, despite living in an area famous for its BBQ. Fortunately a powdered mix which is a decent imitation is available.

They are french fries served with a side of chicken gravy. Perfect for PMS, colds, flu, etc.
