Report: 89% Of Suzy Qs Never Make It Out Of Gas Station Parking Lots

WASHINGTON—According to a Commerce Department report released Friday, nearly nine out of every 10 Hostess Suzy Qs—the crème-filled devil’s food snack cakes—are consumed within 30 feet of the gas stations where they are purchased. “While 64 percent are eaten on the way back to the car, a full quarter of all Suzy Qs are eaten in the gas station itself,” the report read in part, noting that many of the cakes are ingested in the checkout line before they are even paid for. “The only time any part of the average Suzy Q exits the parking lot is when cake residue is still present on a wrapper that has been tossed on the backseat of a car.” Commerce Secretary Gary Locke later told reporters that he foresees similar results for upcoming studies on Ring Dings, Zingers, and “those fruit pie things that come in the wax-paper wrappers.”
