Hope you’re hungry — here’s a tribute to Hostess Choco-Diles! The snack cakes have taken on a cult following over the years, mainly because they’ve become so hard to find. If you live in a city that sells Choco-Diles, don’t take it for granted. You’re part of an elite minority. Promoted with the help of “Chauncey Choco-Dile,” the chocolate-covered Twinkies are a sadly obscured corner of junk food history. Review includes everything from a trip to the Hostess Bakery to old commercials starring “Captain Cupcake.”
