A feature I hope to make a regular part of this blog is “Dollar Makes You Holler!” — stuff that’s interesting/weird/makes me LOL (is it even cool to use this acronym anymore? No matter, moving on…) and costs a dollar or less.
Choco Pies
My eyes just about popped out of my head when I spied these chocolate lovelies. Made by Lotte, a Korean supercompany, Choco Pies taste like Little Debbie moon pies, only lighter and fluffier. They are especially good frozen. Also, I have been told that when mashed up and rolled, they resemble a certain kind of bodily waste that rhymes with shmoo, which causes small children and immature adults of all ages to shriek with laughter as they eat them.
The last time I had eaten one of these I lived in South Korea. But what were they doing outside of an Asian country/funky-smelling store with grammatically odd signage? Ah, therein lies the mystery and beauty of the 99 cent store…
Found at the 99 Cent Store (2560 Notre Dame Boulevard, Chico).
