We just watched the moon piece drop here in Mobile. There's a really cool moonpie store on Royal st. The banana ones are my favorite. I seriously have a box of them on my pantry shelf that we got from the moonpie store. Also, at the Marriott Downtown they put moonpies on each pillow instead of chocolates, no joke. Great video, thank you.

They are still two of my favorite treats. There is ALWAYS RC in my fridge, but I had to stop buying the pies because I have no will power where they're concerned, 🤣. My little brother went the opposite; he always has Moon Pies, but gave up the RC. Every now & then, we make a deal 😋.

I grew up on a rural dead end road in southern WV in the sixties and seventies. Only 8 households. My Dad was a miner but we had livestock and big gardens as well, as did most of our neighbors. The last place up (head of the holler) was another miner's family. But he took livestock to the next level, including four chicken houses with 500 chickens per house. 2000 chickens. Needless to say they were in the egg business. Me and some friends would sometimes help our buddy who lived there feed the chickens and clean the houses after school. Hot, suffocating work, especially in hot weather. Our pay? A big ole moon pie and a RC, sitting on the bench in the shade behind one of those old houses! True bliss. A time etched in my memory, gone forever!

Couple of thoughts... 3rd Saturday/Sunday of June, traditionally, has been "The" weekend for family reunions and get togethers, in the South. I am 63 y/o and for the life of me, and for as many Moon Pies as I have shoved down my gullet, I never once noticed or paid any attention to the word "Lookout" on the Moon Pie packaging, until your video! Was I laser focused on just the sweet satisfaction of the moon pie coming my way or was I suffering from Attention Deficit Disorder by not noticing the word? Probably the latter 😎. Video was great and a blast from the past, enjoyed it. Now, could I interest you in a "grap" soda and some 4 corner nabs?

Then he’d take his empty bottles to return for the refund and buy some more. It helped us a lot that we had a bottling plant in our small town of Pulaski, VA. Sometimes he would bring home a jug of lemon syrup to make us some lemonade. How I miss the simpler times in life.

I remember at school in the '60's they were BIG and thick with super soft delicious biscuits . The whole thing epitomised quality, taste and value. Later, the bean counters got involved and ruined the darn things, but that's" EXPERTS " for you. They're still sold but are small and come in a packet of a dozen or so. They're OK, but disappointing if you've had an original. I'm guessing Moonpies were equally as delicious. I can't imagine anything better.
