      I love those...and Hostess Cup Cakes as well.


      Mexicans' number one Americanized/commercialized sweet treats are Gansitos Marinela..owned by giant Bimbo corporation:

      Grupo Bimbo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

      You can usually find them in Mexican-themed markets...and you can even order them online:

      Amazon.com: Gansito Marinela Pastelitos - Snack Cakes - 10 Gansitos - 1 lb 1.63oz: Gourmet Food

      Mexicans have been eating them since the 50s...lol.

      60s commercial with Chabelo:

      YouTube - Anuncio Gansito Marinela - 60s Chabelo

      70s commercial:

      YouTube - Anuncio Gansito Marinela 2 - 70s (Mexico)

      80s commercial:

      YouTube - Gansito Marinela

      50th anniversary commercial:

      YouTube - Gansitos 50th Anniversary-60 Seconds

      They are great if you freeze them too.





      Mexicans LOVE them!!!

                    That's weird....around here in Maryland they were called King Don's. Just to make sure I wasn't having a bad memory, I looked it up and here it is

                      As a side note, I don't eat snack cakes anymore but I always enjoyed Little Debbie Oatmeal Cream Pies and Hostess Fruit Pies....I was partial to Blueberry.

                          I always liked Yodels -- eat the outside chocolate off first then unroll and eat the cake.
