I am bad...do not eat sweets...and my girls and son will only eat home made cakes and such. They are spoiled!!! They will not eat jar sauces nor boxed potatoes...everything from scratch

My mom use to make the best cupcakes in the world, I miss my mom.

I only want hostess but I think that the twinkies don't taste good anymore. I remember LOVING them as a child but everytime I try one now I'm disappointed in the taste. Anyone else notice a difference?

Yes I can tell the knockoffs!!!! I tried the cheap version of Little Debbie's. Not the same!!!!

Food - definetly original

Cleaning supplies - knock offs (except clorox)

Hostess is my preference, but I will eat either...yum yum

When we were kids it was Dolly Madison cakes. My dad loved the big pink fuzzy one's with coconut toppings. I just liked the fact the Peanut Characters were on the packages. Wish I had one now, Charlie Brown's Christmas is on in a few, and it's time for a snack.

I used to be able to get them at Harris Teeter, but that was perhaps three years ago then they disappeared.

matters on what the item is. Some knock-offs are fine but give me Hostess Cupcakes over the knock-offs everytime. Slurpees are 1000 times better that Icees. Food Lion Diet Cola tastes as good as Diet Coke.

SteveCrisp, I've only seen Drake's up north in New England and New York areas. I don't think they make it this far south.

I almost never use knock-offs. Always brand names. And that holds especially true for my cupcakes.

By the way, a company called Drake's used to make little coffee cakes, but I haven't seen them in a while. Anyone know where to get them?
