Mm Mm Good?


Hungry, I headed down to the vending machines, and happened upon a Jumbo Iced Honey Bun from Cloverhill Bakery. It was so white I wasn't sure whether it was over-glazed or in a colored package. Turns out it was the former.

After it popped out of the vending machine, I flipped it over to check out the "nutrition" information.

Nutrition Facts

Wow! All that for just $.70!

Unfortunately (but not surprisingly), it didn't taste as good as it looks. Of course, I didn't heed their advice ("Delicious Microwaved!"), but I think the nasty chemical-esque after-taste would present itself regardless. But what do you expect for a baked good that has a 30 day shelf life?
