Did you eat them a whole bunch? I ate pizza rolls too much and stopped liking them. Right around the same time I discovered Nutty Bars.

One thing I really like about Nutty Bars is the layers. I would alternate between biting them whole or separating the layers.

Me too! In fact, toward the end of my love for them, that was ALL I did when eating them. Separate and munch. I do think that they had become a far too prominent choice for me to snack on at the time. That probably contributed to my change in taste.

I can't eat Little Debbie stuff because of the chemical preservatives they use.

That's a shame.

Little Debbie products, including Nutty Bars which were my favorite for sure, and pizza rolls both came into my life via my first year of college when I lived in a dorm. For some reason, out of what the building's convenience store had, those two items appealed to me most.

Much later I had this job that was just brutal. It was up to 64 hours a week of nonstop movement. Lifting, stacking, pushing, and walking. I was very good at it but my whole life was nothing but eat, sleep, and work. Little Debbie was a tremendous help. What I would do is, go to this convenience store and stock up on all my aforementioned favorite items. I would take the box off the shelf that was most empty and fill it with my assortment. I would also get a sixpack of vanilla SlimFast. All the guys on job laughed when they saw me drinking that stuff. They said I was already skinny and the wind would blow me away like a kite. Well I was using it like a protein shake, for energy. They didn't laugh at how I did three times as many orders as anybody else, every night. Anyway, I would have one LD thing at each break. One more with the SlimFast and a "prison sandwich" (turkey, bread, and...that's it, just meat and bread) at lunchtime.

I wish I could have a job like that again, except with more normal hours. Also the pay would have to be more. With all the overtime it sure seemed like a lot of money to me at the time but I need a little more leisure time than that.

I like them, but I haven't had any myself in quite some time. Let's see, that job was ten years ago. Since leaving it, I've probably had fewer than 10.

Which reminds me...

Yeah, those are good too. In 10th or 11th grade I would get one (I think a different brand, not LD) and two 20s of Hawaiian Punch every morning on my way to school.

Oatmeal creme pies, swiss rolls and banana twins which I can never find anywhere!

Woah. I don't know if I've seen those around here or not.

Now you can get Cosmic CUPCAKES as well as brownies...
