They mailed the snacks in two regular boxes, inside a inverted box of the same thing. This was my childhood snack growing up, and I wanted to know if they still taste good.

Spoilers: meh. It was better when I was a kid.

Preemptive hail corporate - I wish I was getting paid to eat garbage.

Tasteykakes have progressively gotten shittier and shittier over the decades. At this point they're the same goddamn "hydrogenated oils" formed into shapes resembling cakes like every other snack cake. They all have that same fucking taste and consistency now. Same with Little Debbie.

They're owned by a publicly traded holding company in Georgia (state) now and since 2011. Thst should be enough information to know why it's gotten worse.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
