On our trip to Russia, we became quite fond of Choco-Pies. Our liking for them started on the Trans-Siberian railroad, when they would come with our tea (for an extra charge, of course). We developed a love for the chocolate-coated spongey cakes filled with marshmallow. The phrase "Я Люблю Choco-Pie" even became a bit of an inside joke. On returning to the States, and subsequently moving to England, I had forgotten about the brief summer affair with the mass-produced pastry. Today a friend asked me to go shopping with her at the local(ish) Japanese grocery. Much to my suprise, I found some Choco-Pies there, sitting on the shelf and begging to be purchased. I complied, and am now happily reunited with the junk food.
