Choco Pies are our newest fun food. They're like a Whoopie pie with a marshmallow filling but dipped in chocolate. John and I first discovered these when we watched the Korean movie "The Way Home". This is an absolutely endearing film is about a little boy who is unexpectedly dropped off at his grandmother's house in a remote village for what seem like several months. The boy is spoiled and a brat but slowly begins to learn about love and humility from his grandmother. The choco pies remind me of the grandmother's self sacrificing love of the little boy.
I found these at the local C mart in Chinatown and my Korean neighbor, Sookie, recognized them as Korean, remarked that she hadn't had one in ages, and immediately wolfed one down.
