Have you ever wondered which is better, a Swiss Cake Roll or a HoHo? Wonder no more. When we were grocery shopping last week, this suddenly hit us. What really is the difference between the two? How is it that there are virtually identical yummy treats with different names from different companies? Well, we decided to buy a box of each and compare them side by side to see if there was a difference, and if it was great enough to even tell the difference blindfolded. yes, we were very scientific about this experiment.
And the winner is...
The HoHo.
And we're very surprised about how many differences we found once we did a true comparison.
First of course, taste: the chocolate part of the HoHo is more chocolatey.
Size: HoHos are slightly bigger.
Nutrition: HoHos have few calories, fewer fat calories and fewer trans fat than Swiss Cake Rolls.
Packaging: HoHos are wrapped individually, so you're not obligated to eat two at a sitting, like with SCR.
We did not see that Swiss Cake Rolls were better than HoHos in any way.
So now you know.
In other news, I can no longer fit into about half of my pants. At first glance, that might seem like a result of eating too many HoHos and Swiss Cake Rolls. While I'm sure that does not help, it's really not the main cause.
