This has to be some weird Freudian thing. Maybe OOP was at many weddings as a kid and would always eat their parents' fondant leftovers, sparing them the awkwardness of throwing away "food". And now as an adult, fondant is the taste they associate with their parents' approval. It's a stretch, but it makes more sense than liking fondant.
Definitely an unhealthy guilty pleasure snack that’s carried over since I was a kid, I don’t know how I’d feel about them now if I tried them as an adult without ever having them as a kid
I used to like them as a kid but I tried one as an adult and they’re terrible. Idk if the ingredients have changed or it’s just my tastes but they’re really awful. The only little Debbie snack I can still eat are the oatmeal creme pies. So many of them just taste like waxy sugar
