The Log. Now go eat a bunch of Vachon chocolate cupcakesFelt like having a twinkie lmao, so stopped by a convenience store and this Billet Log thingy caught my eye. Never heard or tasted before so bought it. And wow! I have a new favourite! Move over Twinkie. Welcome Vachon Billet Log!
What do you guys prefer?
They were great as a kid and teen but now I find them disgusting. Go to your local bakery and buy fresh baked. Plus it sticks it to the corporate overlords who want to pollute your body with preservatives and kill your sperm count.
I had SPAM the canned meat when I was kid and then had it when I was about 25 years old and nearly puked. Had the same reaction to eating Slim Jims. The fat content was just stomach turning. No a fudgecicle is yum yum!
I never liked SPAM and find it too salty. Same with Slim Jims. But anything sweet? Am game! Nowadays my go to junk food is Samyang Buldak Hot Chicken noodles or Indomie Mi Goreng noodles, with a fried egg on top! lol.

Try a fried SPAM with onion and tomato slices on a toasted Brioche bun.
I can see that working out with the sweetness of the Brioche countering the saltiness!
The bakery counter at Starsky's o Dundas has great pastries. The Polskas sure know how to bake too!
They tasted better because the were better. They were hand-made back in the day and each one was a bit different. Sometimes the chocolate was thicker, sometimes there was more caramel. Same with the Joe Louis, thicker chocolate, more cream filling. Now they are mass produced, completely uniform and with minimal amounts of the good stuff.
When Howard Carter opened up King Tutankhamun's tomb for the first time, he found a Hostess Twinkie inside.
Have you seen those things called "ice cream sandwiches" which, if you leave them on a counter top for 4 hours, do not melt.
