Here is a bit of classic Philadelphiana and the reason i was not terribly upset at the demise of the Twinkie. TastyKakes were a staple element in the lunchtime menu of generations of Philly kids and they are still going strong. Chocolate KandyKakes (which used to be called TandyTakes) were always my favorites, followed closely by Chocolate Juniors and Butterscotch Krimpets. I may need to get a couple of boxes to take back to Chicago with me.

Ah, local traditions! I'm interested in the lemon cupcakes, the butterscotch krimpets, and the spice cake krimpets. Nice!
