When I was a kid, my sisters and I couldn't wait until Christmas Eve. That's when we'd tune in to TV and radio stations to listen for sightings of Rudolph, the reindeer and Santa's sleigh. Well, sightings of Little Debbie holiday snack cakes start flying in during the month of October- signaling the unofficial start to the Christmas cake season.

But, did you know just how many Christmas-inspired snacks that Little Debbie offers? There's a pretty big list and it's one you should check out twice!
