There are two types of people in this world: people who love artificially flavored banana foodstuffs, and people who are just wrong. Over time, however, I learned to align myself with these banana haters. Their distaste, in the simplest sense, means more for me. More Banana Laffy Taffy. More Banana Runts. If it\u2019s banana-flavored and you don\u2019t want it, I\u2019ll take it.<\/p>\n
Therefore, I was very excited to see Little Debbie\u2019s new Banana Puddin\u2019 Creme Pies. Though Debbie doesn\u2019t generally stray much from her usual lineup of tried-and-true offerings, she has been known\u2014on a rare occasion\u2014to get a little frisky in the kitchen. And while I\u2019ve never found these dalliances to be very good, they\u2019re always worth a couple of bucks.<\/p>\n
I should have stifled my enthusiasm and saved my money.<\/p>\n

Opening the package, I had hope. The artificial banana aroma is strong, but that\u2019s where the magic begins and ends. The outer sandwich layer\u2014meant to mimic the classic banana pudding inclusion of \u2018Nilla Wafers\u2014had sufficient vanilla taste, but the cake itself was dry and lifeless, like a slightly mushy rice cake or a moistened piece of cheap toast. It\u2019s been a while since I had Debbie\u2019s Oatmeal Creme Pies, but those cakes\u2014in my mind, at least\u2014are moist and maybe even pleasantly greasy, true little discs of sugared beauty. These spongy cakes, on the other hand, were only slightly better than the thin layer of banana-flavored grit paste in the middle. The artificial banana flavor was present in the paste\u2014I\u2019ll die before I call this a \u201ccreme\u201d or \u201ccream\u201d or anything remotely close\u2014but it was beaten into submission by the bland tastes and textures around it.<\/p>\n

The idea of a handheld banana pudding creme pie is a good one, and I encourage restaurateurs to try their hands at the Southern-inspired sweet. Debbie, however, should stick to what she does best\u2014Fudge Rounds, Oatmeal Creme Pies, and the other things that\u2019ve been around for oh, half a century or more. She\u2019s never been much of an innovator, and sometimes, there\u2019s no shame in giving up.<\/p>\n
