When I met my mom, Sister #2 and her husband in New Mexico in 2017, I brought my mom a bunch of junk food. The Twinkies didn’t make much of an impact on her, but when Sister #2 gave her a chocolate cupcake, my mom’s approximate words were, “OMG, this is the best thing I have ever eaten in my entire life.”
