When I was a kid, Kentucky Fried Chicken was better, because it was freshly made to order. You'd have to wait 10 minutes for them to cook it. The pressure-fryers made it possible to cook it that fast. When the big conglomerate that bought the company from the Colonel cheaped out by using a mix for gravy, and replacing the 11 herbs & spices with 3 (salt, pepper, MSG), the Colonel was so disgusted that he moved to Canada. Because the Canadian owner (Scott's Chicken Villas) still did things HIS way, and listened to him.
I was born in 1985. I grew up eating hostess snack cakes since I was a little girl. I love the hostess chocolate cupcakes, Ding Dongs and the hostess fruit pies. I like the hostess apple and Cherry fruit pies, but I also love the hostess snack cake commercials from the 1980's. Thank you. I love the 80's commercials. I am also a huge 80's fan.
You can make your own, and they'll taste better than those Hostess ones ever did. Make the pastry shells, and bake them empty. When they've baked and completely cooled, use a piping bag to fill them with chilled pudding.
This was way before my time ( born in 94 ) but there's something so magical about these commercials, that the newer ones seem to lack. That main component being soul.
Fast food back then was more like home-cooked food. Portions were also much bigger, compared to today. A large Pizza Hut pizza was the size of a extra large New York style pizza in the 80s.
