moon pies:

Follow

I'm surprised how many "what's a moon pie?"s we've gotten already

@Felthry looks like it's a US thing and not even in the entire US?

@noiob yeah I guess it is! but it's like. one of those things that's always been ubiquitous in our life so it's weird thinking that people have never heard of them

food 

@Felthry huh, from pics I thought they were like, regular-sized cookies, but Wikipedia says 4 inches (10 cm), that's pretty dang large

re: food 

@noiob they come in various sizes! these mini ones we have right now are more normal cookie sized, maybe two inches across

@IceWolf It's a thing with like

two soft cookies with marshmallow sandwiched between them, the whole thing coated in a chocolate candy

you can also get them in vanilla and banana flavors

@Felthry Sooo it's like a chocolate-covered Oreo? :3

Huh, sounds tasty! *licks fangs*

@IceWolf No, the cookie part is really soft, between a soft-baked cookie and a cake, and it's actual marshmallow filling, not the sugar cream that oreos have

@Dogwood @IceWolf sometimes I forget just how local of a thing they are, hah

@Felthry @Dogwood Honestly, I've heard the name! But had no idea what they were, beyond some kind of food.

@IceWolf @Dogwood tasty is what they are! I highly recommend getting some to try sometime, you can probably get them online if you can't find them locally
