Oh, man oh man oh man oh man oh man oh man...
I used to go to work with my father on some mornings, and these were all staples of my convenience-store breakfast. (Back when convenience stores were a fairly new idea!) But I especially loved that Dolly Madison apple pie!
And the cherry pie (backup for when they were out of apple) had actual [bleep]ing cherries in it!! (A concept alien to mass-market food now, apparently.)
No matter what or where I try, I still can't find a fried apple pie anywhere to compare to those.
The "Mexican" one wasn't bad.

...mine came with an M-14.

And, they are artificially flavored. YUM!
Such things have been re-purposed as tornado sirens in some places. Same sound, different kind of trouble from the skies.
The ones here are used when a chemical plant blows up or when a highly toxic gas is accidentally released.Such things have been re-purposed as tornado sirens in some places. Same sound, different kind of trouble from the skies.
