I could go for a banana Moon Pie and an RC Cola right now.   Yeah, definately.

Chocolate Moon Pie and a Cheer Wine was the hot ticket back during my childhood years in the NC/VA state line area.  The alternate approved snack was a Coke with peanuts, although a heathen movement was rising in town that put the peanuts into a Mt Dew, which wasn't bad either.

Right now I think I could go for any of the combinations mentioned in this thread.  But a Moon Pie and Cheer Wine sounds really good right now.

I brought a box of moon pies and a two liter of RC cola to work last month.  Shared it with my team.  They all reacted differently, but I feel it was overall a positive.

"R-O-C" cola is the proper pronunciation...growing up in Alabama, there was a local outdoors show called the Sportsman's Friend or something like that...they sat on a fake cabin porch and talked hunting and fishing. Then mid-way through the show, the host would slide over a cooler and they would enjoy a moon-pie and RC cola.

A woman from New York who had lived in our small Texas Panhandle town for over 10 years one day declared herself Southern.
I said, "we will see".
I gave her the quintessential Southern snack-an RC Cola and a Moon Pie.
Made her sick.
"Nope, you're NOT Southern"!

I was born in Chattanooga, most of my extended family is still there. You can get DC at Cracker Barrel stores, that's the only place I know of these days.

Actually, in most of Tennessee, you can get a Moon Pie at nearly any convenience store, Kroger, Wal-Mart anywhere.

In downtown Chattanooga, right on Broad Street, is the Moon Pie General Store.

They sell anything Moon Pie, obviously because Moon Pies are made in Chattanooga at the Lookout Bakery

Another good "coke" (soft drink or soda for you non-Southerners) from around the southeastern NC/SC area. It's loaded with ginger and newbies should start with the gold cap. The red cap is for true ginger afficianados and packs a double punch.

Salted Peanuts go in Coke not Pepsi

Moonpies go well with just about anything, especially good with coffee while hunting

My FIL worked in an RC plant in AL back in the day, said they came off the line or were stored at 34 degrees iirc and that was the only way he would drink them.

Used to kind of be a tradition after running section IV of the Chattooga, stop at the little store there at the Tugalo takeout and grab a Moon Pie and an RC or a Cheerwine.  Corn syrup ruined all of them.    The store is gone too.

Marshmallows are nasty, but tolerable with rice krispies. Frozen are extra gooder. I don’t think they even sell RC cola here so I go with ice cold milk.

RC Cola on the other hand was ubiquitous where I grew up. I probably drank a tanker truck full of it during my childhood.

Ours was Ring Dings, Devil Dogs and Wise potato chips.

Around here, just mentioning a RC Cola and a Moonpie in the same sentence will get you branded as a racist.

Something like racial stereotypes akin to fried chicken, watermelon, and grape anything.
