    Are breakfast tacos not common in your area?

    We have them where I live, but probably not where I go for my volunteer vacation job. It's a small casino town on the Nevada/Utah boarder with not many dining options. And I have to be at my job a half hour from the hotel as the sun is coming up, so I don't really have time to pick up something like that even if it were available. Really Pop-Tarts or Hostess Fruit Pies work best for working and eating one-handed, so I welcome the return of Hostess products even if I can't stand the Twinkie or Cupcake.

    I think Marinela Gansitos are much better. They aren't as sickeningly sweet. You can get them at most WalMarts.

    You're joking? Anything Hostess makes is far, far sweeter.
