Description
Dagnabbit, you're right...orange was available at one point in Boston at least! I can still remember the taste, slightly orangy and a little creamier taste than the chocolate Big Wheels. Loved Big Wheels!!! I lived on them!!! I remember the bright yellow wrapper with Chief Big Wheel on them -- two cakes per pack as I recall.

I absolutely LOVED Hostess Big Wheels. I used to eat them everyday when I was a child ( NO LIE ). Hostess tries to say they are Ding Dongs now but, Ding Dongs DO NOT TASTE ANYTHING LIKE BIG WHEELS. I honestly think Hostess had change the ingredients. To me Ding Dongs taste like they have cheaper ingredients like, equal sweetner instead of real sugar. I would love it if Hostess brought back Big Wheels with the original ingredients that they were made with.

How about the original Twinkie - they changed the creme inside those bad boys... remember how they used to have that grainy sugar taste... not the current fluffy cream which is absolutely nasty! I used to love the Big Wheels too - and agree they had a distinct taste... I grew up just North of NYC in the 70's...
