For me the snacks are sort of fun but tinted with melancholy. Other than being impulse items aimed at kids Oreos with red filling or Christmas tree shaped Little Debbies seem made for the people who can't/won't bake or who have no friends or family who bake. But the fact that these people would choose the Christmas themed items over the plain is kind of endearing.
