[EAN: 9781589808577], Neubuch, [PU: Pelican Publishing Company], Paperback. "Moon Pies are a way of life." So begins this ultimate resource for everything you ever wanted to know—and perhaps much, much more—about the beloved MoonPie. First developed more than ninety years ago by a little bakery in Chattanooga, Tennessee, the MoonPie consists of a thick layer of marshmallow sandwiched between two cookies, all drenched in a generous coating of flavored chocolate, vanilla, banana, lemon, orange, or strawberry frosting. This loving homage to the tasty pastry includes hilarious and offbeat nibbles of information. From advice on how to use the MoonPie to entice a lover or raise a child, to recipes and entertaining and craft ideas, this clever tome is filled with a little bit of history, a little bit of instruction, and a lot of laughter. Dozens of cartoons depicting everything from Marie Antoinette downing one of the heavenly cakes to lively depictions of folks from every walk of life enjoying the pies round out this volume as unique as the sweet treat it celebrates. The only book ever written about the popular treat, this MoonPie manifesto presents the sweet Southern snack in all its toothsome glory. Starting with a history of the MoonPie and its conception in 1917, MoonPie enthusiast and devotee Ron Dickson dishes up a hilarious, thoughtful, and downright silly study of the tasty tidbit and its great impact on the American South, the country, and the world. Filled with Sam C. Rawls' ironic and expressive cartoons, the chapters range from studies of MoonPie etiquette and arts and crafts ideas to stories of spiritual enlightenment, romantic adventure, and media frenzy all brought about by the magic of the marshmallow-filled pastry. Recipes, entertaining ideas, and even tips on how to use MoonPies in rearing children and other wild animals are among the delicious and ridiculous nuggets of wisdom in this endearing tribute to the great MoonPie.
