This Ding Dong Isn't for Ding Dongs

Warning: What I'm about to say may come as a surprise, but, Ding Dongs are NOT GOOD FOR YOU.

Turns out that even though I'm craving the chocolaty snack cakes fortnightly, the chemicals involved in cookin' up these Twinkie cousins are, ahem, more likely to come from a mine than from the earth.

Luckily, Portland's local Elephant's Deli has whipped up the perfect solution to my cream-filled cake addiction with their homemade Ding Dongs. Unlike the Hostess version, these babies are made with gourmet dark chocolate and hand whipped vanilla cream to create a decadent, much better for you (ha) alternative to the traditional treat.

This is good news since I'm pretty sure that without a viable alternative I'd be hard-pressed to resist the temptation, rocks or not.

So…thanks Elephant's for lookin' out for me in these dark willpower-challenged days - Viva la Ding Dong!
