Hostess cupcakes and HoHo's?!


Question: Hostess cupcakes and HoHo's!?
I bought box of HoHo's recently!. I was so excited to share these with my kids since I hadn't had one in a loooong time!. I was quite disappointed though!. They didn't taste anything like I remember!. They weren't as chocolaty tasting and the frosting didn't have a nice firm snap I remember!. The most annoying thing is that they have this little "tail" on them now instead of being rolled completely in a jellyroll!. I guess the fast equipment can't handle the job to tuck the tail under!!

I feel the same about the cupcakes!. Just not as chocolaty or as satisfying as I remember!.

So what do you think it is!.!.!. do you think my adult palate is just not satisfied with this type of treat anymore!? Or do you think Hostess is cutting corners and making a substandard product!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

A hersheys candy bar used to be like 6 inches long and 3 inches wide!.!.!.!. nothing has the same taste anymore as not only like the other answer said about cutting corners they also now change many ingredients because of fat and dyes etc

i guarantee you that hostess has cut corners in their product!. most eveyone has, cost of living goes up, they gotta make their money somehow!. more preservatives and less of the good stuff!. its sad but they are hostess so they can get away with it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
