As a kid growing up in the South, I had my fair share of Moon Pies. I grew up working on the farm and about mid-morning on a summer day, my daddy would bring those of us working in the field a morning snack. We had our choices of a candy bar, a pack of peanuts, or a Moon Pie and a drink. In the South a drink is the same as a soda or a pop. My drink of choice was usually a Mountain Dew.
Moon Pies are yummy little snack cakes, chocolate covered soft graham cookies with a marshmallow cream between the two cookies. I'd always heard the phrase "an RC cola and a Moon Pie," but I never really liked those colas. I'd stick with the Dew.
I a few years ago I discovered the Moon Pie Crunch, especially the yummy peanut butter filled crunchy cookies. I could have a new snack addiction, but I'm trying to restrain myself.
What's your favorite snack?

Good "m' choice. . . I'll take a mini one (but it's got to be "normal" flavor -> not vanilla or whatever non-traditional versions being offered.)
another thought too -> Mrs. Priss says Cuban friends love for Pullen Pilgrims to bring Moon Pies to share for treat with them.
