About Moonpie

MoonPie is a classic American snack originating from the Southern United States, first created in 1917. This treat consists of two round graham cracker cookies sandwiching a layer of marshmallow, all coated in a flavored outer layer, typically chocolate, though flavors like vanilla, banana, and others are also popular. MoonPies are an iconic part of Southern cuisine and nostalgic comfort food for many. While MoonPies provide a quick source of energy from their combination of carbs, fats, and sugars, they are not considered a health-conscious choice. A single MoonPie is high in sugar and contains refined carbohydrates and saturated fats, with minimal nutritional benefits like fiber, protein, or vitamins. Enjoyed occasionally as a treat, they can be part of a balanced diet but are best consumed in moderation due to their high calorie and sugar content.
