Little Debbie's Fall Party Cakes Are Even Lazier Than I Am

     I recently picked this box up to sample.  I figured since I have an obligation to review fall snacks, why not?  Well it turns out there's nothing fall about them.
     Take a look at that box for a second.  Seems pretty standard, right?  A mix of orange, yellow and red.  Autumnal colors.  Maybe some pumpkin flavor?  A little apple, butternut?

     Wrong.  It's just fucking chocolate and cake.  What is fall about that?  What is party about that?  I could just buy a fucking Ring Ding any time of year.  I don't need to wait until October to be suckered into buying a snack food with special colors on it.
     You can literally replace the writing on the box and it could be a hundred different things.  Take away the orange and it becomes the Belgian flag.  Did that just blow your mind?  Goddamn right it did.  Look at this prototype box I drew up:
     A different box and goes from being a 'fall party cake' to Belgium's national snack food.  There's nothing fall or party about these cakes!  I don't even know what a party cake is!  I don't bring cake foods to parties.  I'm a selfish blogger, sue me.  I'm keeping bad boys like these all for myself.
     They're pretty good though, don't get me wrong.  But false advertising is a bitch.  5/10.

PS- During my research for this blog I found out that Belgium uses a 13:15 ratio for their flag instead of the standard 2:3.
