June 16, 2010: RC & Moon Pie
Whenever we feature one of these, uh... unique cultural events, UT favors so much, it's always after the fact.
Now I can just hear the gnashing of teeth, tearing of cloth, and wailing in the night, because you missed them. Cheer up Bunkie, you're getting advanced notice on this one. This coming Saturday, June 19th, bounce your butt down to Bell Buckle, Tennessee, for the annual, "RC--MOON PIE FESTIVAL" ![]() There will be a 10 mile run, parade, hog callin', contests/games, and of course the crowning of Queen Moon Pie and King RC Cola. Looks to me like last year, the Miss Moon Pie wasn't thrilled with the Prince RC's attention to Miss Goo Goo Cluster. ![]() ![]()

I'm a little frightened by the Goo Goo Cluster Valkyrie.

You had me at 'hog callin' contest'
To be honest, you had me at Bell Buckle Tennessee. The presence of moon pies and RC "Coca Cola" (That's the way you order one: "Gibme one of them RC coca colas ya got back there,") is just the icing on the cake.

The first two things I noticed about this picture were the left one and the right one.

Somehow, I just can't imagine "10 mile run" and "Moon Pie" at the same event.

a moonpie is marshmallow sandwiched between two graham cracker cookies with the whole assembly being covered in chocolate. I'm not sure what you have over there that resembles a graham cracker.
Goo goo clusters are a regional thing. I;ve never had one, but they look like this: http://www.candyrageous.com/2009/01/goo-goo-cluster/ ![]()

addendum to squirrel's post: the moonpie is NOT as good as it sounds.
they are always stale and crumbly and taste like cardboard.

Goo Goo clusters are awesome, but in the "if round is funny" category of regional chocolately gooey treats my fave is the Bun Bar. Try a maple bar. They're fresh.
That's two movie quotes (or para quotes) layered in there (with caramel!), one you should know and one you won't, but that's ok, eat some chocolate and forget all about it. |

You are buying them from the wrong people, then. I don't find that with the moon pies I get around here.
