I know we all love to eat stuff we really shouldn’t… But news that the “Tasty Baking Company,” makers of such gourmet treats as Butterscotch Krimpets and Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes, has just come up with a way to make its products even more lethal, might be enough to make you think twice. Because now, Tastykake fans can get twice the icing on Krimpets and twice the peanut butter filling in Kandy Kakes! If you go to their Web site you can find all kinds of nutritional information, including the fact that the single size TastyKake without the double icing and peanut butter contains 35% saturated fat! So what the heck does the supersized version have? Enough to kill a Brahma bull I imagine. While the list of ingredients they put in these delicacies looks like most of it came out of an oil refinery. But, if you’re desperate to get your choppers around this stuff, go to www.tastykake.com and good luck!
What if I just eat the 65% that isn't fat!
You just took all the fun out of my snacking, George! Oh well, my blood pressure will thank you eventually.
