The thing I miss most of all is the Mrs. Baird's French Pastries. I think they quit making them back in the 1990's but boy they were good. It was a soft chocolate cake about 4" across and it had a hollowed out center that was filled with lots of cream. Then the whole thing was coated with a chocolate shell and there was a sprinkling of pecan pieces on the top. Don't even like pecans but the whole thing just worked. I tried a Ding Dong the other day but it was too dry and bland and nowhere near enough cream inside. Sadwalk
That pastry sounds delicious and probably just enough for one, right?

I haven't had a Ding Dong in years! It's my understanding that they're smaller than they used to be. But, I'm really partial to jelly donuts especially when they've just been baked. So nice and fluffy. I love it when they're really loaded with extra jelly. Licklips

If you're willing to pay shipping from Seattle, I don't mind looking for them. If you're on the East coast, the shipping might be too much and kill the deal for you.
I gotta calculate some potential weights. We have a discount with UPS at work. You could always give them to shuri and he can hand deliver them to me Big Grin

I saw the strawberry Twinkies last night at Target. They're also at QFC, which is Kroger in other parts of the country.
We have the strawberry twinkies here. It's the strawberry cupcakes that are sorta hard to find. Coverlaugh

I saw them at Publix.
Hmm don't have a Publix here, but I'll keep looking, I'm not in a hard look because well it's not good for my health. Blush2

Not sure I'd trust shuri to get them to you. He was supposed to meet BH and me for lunch but he flaked at the last minute. Annoyed

Tell me what you want and I'll look for it. As soon as they have a nice weekend in Vancouver we're going up there.

Pepperidge Farm Cappucino cookies. I think they were under the Brussels line. Still can't come to grips with there not being enough demand for them... yet Mint Milano lives on.

And no, the Marbella ones are not the same.

Nah, they've gotta be fresh from the bakery.

I seldom go into the WalMart here. Nasty. We don't have a Meijer's. Perhaps I'll find one when I leave here. Happy trails. wave

Fanta Birch Beer. It's root beer. There is one resteraunt in Florida called Charhut that serves it in there fountain. I live in Kentucky now and can't find it anywhere. So addicted.

Mayfield snow cream. Seasonal. Wish I could get it in the summer. Would be perfect.
Birch Beer is amazing. It is definitely not root beer though. It's made by steeping wood from a birch tree.

There is another company that makes it that seems to be easier to find (at least in central Illinois). It's called Sioux City. It doesn't seem to be quite as strong as others I've had, but it is still pretty good.
