I've always loved hostess fruit pies, but until recently I hadn't eaten one for a very long time. I read a lot of negative reviews on here, and based upon some of them being so negative, I was hesitant to order these pies. They also seemed to be a bit expensive. But I love apple pie. Some might not know this, but America's greatness is in part, due to apple pie. I won't say anything more about that though. You'll just have to look up this vital information yourself, buy a box, and make America great again. Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah, so anyway, some of the negative reviews in here cut me to the quick, but I went ahead and ordered. I got two boxes of 8 pies, with no damage to the packing at all. And actually, if you check around, the price really isn't that bad on Amazon. About three dollars a pie, but that's just what these heavenly things cost these days. To make a long, boring story short, these were JUST AS GOOD as I remember them. These are absolutely delicious. The crust is perfect and has a thin glazing of some kind of sugary sweetness, and the filling is maybe not as much as years ago, but there's quite enough of it for me. If you love apple pie, this is a no-brainer. Be a patriot and buy some. Amazon is selling similar Hostess fruit pies, but they are bite size, and I don't think they're worth the money. But these fullsize ones are. So when ordering, please make sure you're getting the big pies, not the little ones. I still can't believe the negative reviews here. To each his own, but I was most pleasantly surprised by how good these still are, and just ordered two more boxes of eight. I haven't tried the cherry ones, but will soon because I also remember them being great too back during my wasted youth. Don't let the bad reviews fool you. These are GREAT! 😋

they good

Throw in for 30-60 sec depending how powerful your microwave is. Make sure plate underneath bc filling will pop out. After that, makes the pie very good although very sweet if you are sensitive to sugar. The other reviews are right on the pie being hard etc before putting it in the microwave.

Wouldn't pay full price but would buy again if a deal pops up.

These Hostess pies brought back pleasant memories. But they really aren't as good. In my opinion, the crust is too thick and it could have more filling. Otherwise it tastes good enough. What I really want to see are the berry pies. Always liked those. They were fresh - no complaints there.

I didn't find these offensive like many others here did; I thought they were really sweet and a touch cinnamony. They were not out of date, nor rubbery inside. Mine seemed quite fresh.
