Vanilla Hostess Pudding Pie 1986


I beg to differ calling this 'disgusting.' From my perspective, it wasn't bad. To others, they may offer a second opinion which will contradict mine's. The product shown in this You Tube video clip is the Hostess Pudding Pie. It was definitely a favorite during my childhood in the mid-'80s. I can still remember the chocolate covered crust on the outside and the rich vanilla pudding flavor in the inside. Sure it may wind up to be a mess on our hands if we don't hold it with a napkin or the product's wrapper, but it's all worth it once we get a taste of it. Too bad it only came out for a limited time. Hopefully, Hostess can bring it back and make it a part of their regular line-up of their snack treats commonly found in grocery stores and convenience stores (i.e. 7-Eleven). I wouldn't mind having another bite of this delicious dessert, but I do not plan on eating a lot of these this time around, for health's sake.

For now, my suitable replacement to this is Dunkin's Boston Creme donut. It may not be pie, but it does retain some of the ingredients that does remind me of the snack from years ago.
