Remember those Hostess Fruit Pies? I loved me some Hostess Berry Fruit Pies when I was a kid. Actually, it's probably safe to assume that I still love them, but I made the mistake once of looking at the nutritional information label on one. A third of the total fat that I can have in a day, and HALF of the saturated fat? I can find tastier treats. Anywho, I ran into this crazy article on Wired.com today that explains what is actually in those things. Perhaps I should re-title this post "Innocence Lost".
P.S. Check out these recipes from the Hostess website. Gag me with a spork.

I used to buy those things from the vending machine in jr high. Ugh. I'm glad I don't eat them anymore. I had to stop myself from reading that article. Ugh!
you are just a fountain of very interesting, and sometimes useless information. (of course that is my favorite kind of info)
