When my great-granddaughter was 3, she was pretending to be a dispatcher when I offered her an off-brand honeybun. She took one bite, and without breaking character, she picked up her "microphone" and announced, "Rescue Emergency, I have a bad honey bun here!" 🤣
For those mentioning the boxes: They’re only on the table to show exactly what I’m eating and to place what I thought was the cake brand with the corresponding box. The cakes were plated in another room and placed in front of me in a random order. Only the producer Josh knew which cake was which.
Excuse me, Sir Matthew, I feel this comment of yours is strictly directed at me for my attempt at "professional corrective criticism". The video was still well worth watching. I mean, you are a comedic genius and we know that a fellow Alabamian will always be able to tell the difference between Lil Debbie's and ANY OTHER imposters. Just between you and me, the sole purpose of this video was to eat a snack cake (or three). 🤫 A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do so why not make a video and get paid. 👉😜👈 But, really ...... no Oatmeal Sandwich Cake? Be ashamed, be very ashamed !!! 😤
That confused me on the first go. I was like ‘there’s no way this man can’t see these box tops.’ I thought you were so confidently wrong, just like that mayonnaise taste test. But then you swapped um and I was over the moon. Great job.
I think if I was your producer I would have faked you out on one of them and given you two of the "real" kind just to see your reaction to them being identical. :D
I read your comment just as he said the "tastes like DG smells" part. And I once (only once) bought a box of Reese's Pieces that tasted like the dollar general.
That's a great description. Chances are, the GV cakes are on the aisle right next to the cleaning supplies at the Walmart store they were bought at. That aisle can have a Dollar Generallish smell.
"Hey past Jason, how many hours of your life do you predict you'll spend watching a guy you don't know taste-test different foods?" "Weird question. I mean, probably none?" "Hahaha. Nice try. How about hundreds?"
Growing up a "Little Debbie" as I'm only 4'11", I had my first LD in 1984 when I was 16. Love them a lot. Over the years they have gotten smaller and smaller, but I will never eat a knock off brand of these cakey goodness.
I honestly don't know how it's possible for one man to have so many amazing off-the-cuff one-liners in every episode. You told me that everyone loves Little Debbie so much that even the cardboard can't let go of the Swiss Roll. You have to understand that's the funniest thing anyone's ever said about Swiss Rolls or Little Debbie, but it's just like a thing you think and say. Unreal.
For those of us who don't buy snack cakes very often, we may sometimes wonder if it's worth it to pay the extra for Little Debbie brand - or if the store brand are just as good. Thank you for helping us to choose wisely!
There's a handful of foods that you just get the namebrand of, without question, because the alternatives genuinely just don't stack up. Oreos is my favorite example, because I haven't found an off-brand oreo that even comes close to the original.
@@MilwaukeeWoman yep, in the last year the price like doubled. I do buy walmart nutty buddy knock offs cause they really aren't that far off for the price differential tho this past month the walmart brand price went from $1.50 to $1.89.
I typically don't eat Little Debbies that much anymore. The recipe has definitely changed since my childhood. Cheaping out to meet a price point. I would happily pay 20 cents more if I could get the old recipes.
I hadn't eaten stuff like that in a good long while, saw some that I used to love as a kid, bought them.. They taste way waxier and cheaper than I remember. Dunno if my tastebuds have changed, or the recipe changed. Probably a bit of both. The peanutbutter bars used to be my fav thing in the world as a kid, now they are just okay-ish. haha. Dont even get me started on zebra cakes. I remember those being SO good as a kid. Now it tastes like mushy corn syrup bread with a wax coating
@@thewarlocke5303 I can affirm it's not just a taste bud change. The recipe now is way worse than it ever was. I've even noticed a difference since the regulations were relaxed in 2021 because of covid.
@@gaiasguardian205 Myself; Little Debbie brand used to use the name Nutty Bars, but changed it to Nutty Buddys somewhere around 2016. Something that was a little confusing to me because when I was growing up, Nutty Buddys were ice cream cone treats, similar to Nestles Drumsticks.
All this time I've been cutting corners and cheating myself of the authentic goodness. This video should be required viewing for all snack enthusiasts. Well done!
You're the reason I need a Swiss Rolls patch! I swear if you take one out of the box and just eat those two, you're super human and I must bow to your greatness! I however have to eat two two packs just to feel like I have enough in my stomach!
Was really interested in the honey bun results because I recently got the Great Value honey buns on impulse and they were decent. Also, I've never seen a Little Debbie come off the cardboard cleanly no matter how hard I've tried to do it.
My family shopped at ALDIs the other week and we got “Cosmic Brownies” I tried one and it was disgusting, I don’t think they’ve been touched ever since.
Matt, the world’s foremost Little Debbie expert. That’s your official title in our house 🤣 “Hey hun, did you watch that video by Matt?” “Which one?” “The world’s foremost expert on Lil’ Debbies.” Needs no further explanation around here.
i have a dairy allergy & haven't been able to eat little debbie in almost a decade, i could STILL tell each of them apart just visually. little debbie just makes that quality & distinct of a product.
Spent 15 years in a food factory. We did name brand and store brand products. Difference could be quality of packaging, thickness of sauce, amount of toppings/ingredients....it just depended on what the company wanted. What we made you couldn't tell much of a difference in flavor but it was there. Other products, ya....definite difference. I miss Little Debbie snacks. My body doesn't like them anymore, grrrr. Nutty Buddies 4-eva!
I LOVED the comment that tastes like Dollar General smells! I can not tolerate that horrible chemical smell inside of Dollar General AND Family Dollar. Literally makes me sick even wearing a mask. I go VERY seldom, only when I need something that I can't get anywhere else. And yes, some of those cheap snacks do taste like chemicals to me.
It's not the chemicals in cheap snacks, it's the odors of the store penetrating the food. I once bought a box of name brand Reeses pieces from a dollar general, and it smelled like the store. And DG doesn't smell unlike any other store smells.
@@ritasmith9553 We have 10 DG in our county hahaha and some carry different things than others. I know at my closest DG they have their version of the peanut butter ones covered in chocolate (Tagalongs?) and the coconut ones with the chocolate drizzle (idk the Girl Scout name, can’t remember) But I could go across town and find different ones. Good ol DG
Clover Valley Chunky Chocolate chips are like half the price of Chips Ahoy, and they blow chips ahoy out of the water. On the other hand, I bought a can of Clover Valley coffee, and the first time I made it I kept smelling diesel fuel and thought Id gotten some on my clothes in my workshop. Then I tasted the coffee. Only time in my life I poured out fresh coffee and threw the entire can into the trash. Clover Valley seems to be either outstandingly excellent or sucks the labels off of baseball bats.
@@corbinhbucknerjr558 The Clover Valley creamer isn’t good either. Good to know about the coffee. I won’t try it. We use Founding Fathers coffee that we get at a farm store in town. We get 80 pods for $20. Wish they carried the ground coffee bc I can drink a whole pot.
My wife and I were in our 30's (when we lived- briefly- in the NYC area) when we had our first encounter with Little Debbie. She's from Hawai'i, and I'm from Orygun (how it's said, not how it's spelled). But watching your stunning documentary, we both realized that we had the same experience, but with Hostess. And yeah, we both could pass any comparison test with the generic stuff. Of course nowadays we've moved to lower Alabama, and know how to engage in serious arguments regarding Conecuh, and Mardi Gras (heading to Dauphin Island for their parade tomorrow)… but I suppose our pre-diabetic allegiance will always be with the Hostess treats of the early 1960's (yeah, we're old farts). Even so, we get it. We hear you. And we KNOW.
Don’t know how old you are, but I’m from Oregon and in my late 40’s and have had Little Debbie’s my whole life. Mainly because Little Debbie’s are vegetarian and Hostess is not.
@@Grumpy_gurl are you of the Hillsboro Bensons? In fact I'm a retired old fart. And as for the whole 'vegetarian' thing, could you kindly try not to lean into the crunchy lib Orygun thing? …on the other hand, go ahead. I've gone to Alabama, where the greens come with a healthy dose of pork belly.
You know, either Matt absolutely loves Little Debbies to the point he has the texture, while still wrapped memorized), or so he could write a script went and spent who knows how much time feeling these before hand to get every nuance. Either way I can appreciate it.
The Great Value knock off for the chocolate hostess cream filled cupcakes are actually really good. I think a blind taste test might be fun. Although I know you’ll still get them right. ❤️
Matt: I don't know how to describe this... proceeds to give us the greatest, most specific, you-just-took-me-there description of all time: "it tastes like how the inside of Dollar General smells."
Matt love your content so much can't wait every time one of your videos comes on thanks so much for letting us know that we're not crazy well can maybe we are crazy but Little Debbie's definitely have a quality that nothing else has and we love it
I'm poor Matt, the only name brands in my house are little Debbie Swiss rolls and double stuffed Oreos. Thank you for tasting all that sweetness and sugar, I felt my heart palpitate...I can't imagine how you felt. Great and a bit hype afterwards is my hope!🤣 *Btw good job on nailing all three!!!*
Not much of a challenge for an expert such as yourself. There's a reason Great Value hasn't tried to replicate the Fudge Round - It's one of a kind and is the king of the Little Debbies.
I was just in the Walmart the other day and thought about this. I was going to buy the great value Swiss rolls but then I changed my mind and got the little Debbie…I guess I’m about to find out if I made the best choice or not! Get out of my mind!
I’ve loved Little Debbie’s since I was a kid. My dad used to work for Little Debbie and they are so addicting. Great value has nothing on Little Debbie lol
@@ritasmith9553 no I meant great value, he was comparing little Debbie’s to great value brand cakes from Walmart in the video and they are nothing like Little Debbie’s
Even as someone who only got Little Debbie snacks as a treat from school or at a friends house/lunch trade - as SOON as the swiss rolls came out I was like "no residue, not LD". I don't know why it's such a visceral memory for me, just maybe one of those dumb kid mind games you have with some snacks. Scraping the cardboard for that last bit is just an iconic moment lol
The fact that I'm watching you review Little Debbie snack cakes at 2 in the morning should tell you how hilarious I think you are. I would probably even watch you narrate golf and i hate golf. Glad you left IAST. Love your videos. ❤️
Debbie is a real person, my dad used to be the supervisor for their liability insurance carrier and has met her. Need to convince him to get Debbie to watch these lmao
I love some little Debbie but I will say the GV honey bun is much better. Debbie just has a strange taste. That's just me and I grew up on little Debbie when a box has 12 and cost less then $1
Love the comparison videos! I do think it's time you take on the big topic: mayo. Hellmann's, Duke, Blue Plate, generic (Great Value?), and Miracle Whip. Maybe on a banana sandwich!

Even as someone who only got Little Debbie snacks as a treat from school or at a friends house/lunch trade - as SOON as the swiss rolls came out I was like "no residue, not LD". I don't know why it's such a visceral memory for me, just maybe one of those dumb kid mind games you have with some snacks. Scraping the cardboard for that last bit is just an iconic moment lol
Smoked Little Debbie would be a good idea. Smokey Debbie 😌
Love these episodes!!!
Hi, this was a great video. Little Debbie snacks are amazing. I admit that I eat the Great Value homages sometimes but Little Debbie rules.
Yesss! Pure Goodness! In Little Debbie snacks!❤❤❤
For real, though, who else was disappointed that he didn’t eat the Nutty Bars by separating the thin layers and biting them individually?
My favorite way to eat them! Really brings out the taste of the peanut butter and the crisp of the wafers.
The fact that I'm watching you review Little Debbie snack cakes at 2 in the morning should tell you how hilarious I think you are. I would probably even watch you narrate golf and i hate golf. Glad you left IAST. Love your videos. ❤️
I miss you doing Bless Your Rank
Man that old school NBA jam in the background is calling my name! Let's go all or nothing for your box of little Debbie's!!!!
Girl Scout Cookies vs Store Bought?! Aldi's peanut butter fudge cookies are as good as, if not better than GS Tagalongs for a fraction of the cost!
When I first realized you had your own channel you had 64,000 subscribers. Now you are at 208k!!! That happened fast!!! Thanks for the laughs!
you gotta unroll the Swiss Rolls and eat the layers!
AMEN! Glad we
Glad we're not the only ones and take the layers part on the wafers too!
Debbie is a real person, my dad used to be the supervisor for their liability insurance carrier and has met her. Need to convince him to get Debbie to watch these lmao
I love some little Debbie but I will say the GV honey bun is much better. Debbie just has a strange taste. That's just me and I grew up on little Debbie when a box has 12 and cost less then $1
You have hit upon a new theme for videos! Knock off vs real thing on great southern products.
I just want to play those arcade cabinets
Let's go!
"This tastes the way Dollar General smells." 😂
You should try Dollar Tree's version of these. Now THOSE are knockoffs of the knockoffs!
They are gross. I think it's Mrs Freshly. That whole line is repulsive
What a great video. You should do Dollar Tree brand or Aldi brand next.
This is the information that youtube was made for
Love the comparison videos! I do think it's time you take on the big topic: mayo. Hellmann's, Duke, Blue Plate, generic (Great Value?), and Miracle Whip. Maybe on a banana sandwich!
Perfect pairing!
A lot of Honey Buns have a pretty samey flavor and texture. Impressed you picked out the LD one! Props to McKee Foods, much love to Collegedale, TN!
Thank you for your service, Matt! 😂
I lived on Hostess iced honey buns when I was in high school. They were incredible!
