One of the most wonderful desserts ever invented was the whoopie pie. It is found in New England, mosly in Maine. Every little store carries these tasty treats. I grew up addicted to them. Happily, Amish and Mennonites also make whoopie pies, so being in Ohio does not deprive me entirely. Maine whoopie pies tend to be sweeter and MUCH bigger (I have seen whoopie pies that were almost as big as a dinner plate). While I have not had any of the HUGE whoopie pies yet, I have managed to consume 5 or 6 smaller ones (ones about the diameter of a normal cupcake). This is quite restrained of me. I will get some of the bigger ones when I can.
For those who may ever be in Maine, the best whoopie pies to be had are at Moody’s Diner in Waldoboro. Boy, are those good.
You ARE bringing some back for your twin, aren’t you? Oh, and my lovely wife…
By the way, not all Mainers agree that Moody’s Diner has the best whoopie pies. They’re good, but I wouldn’t confir the title of “best” on them…
Admin2 and Admin3 would be willing to taste test a variety of whoopies and confer a objective title which even SNMu would find peace with. (Remember, that is two of each kind in contention, one for Admin2 and one for Admin3…)
