The Scooby Snack Question

The Scooby Snack Question assumes the following:
- When you were a young sprout, you watched Scooby Doo. (Not that one with Scrappy Doo, he sucked.)
- You witnessed, many times, how the consumption – or even promised consumption – of a Scooby Snack treat would cause the normally cowardly Shaggy and Scooby to perform feats of derring-do and bravery to aid their teammates.
Now quickly, without thinking about it too much, answer the following question to yourself:
What do Scooby Snacks taste like?
Got it? Now, the important followup: No matter what they taste like, given the opportunity, would you have eaten a Scooby Snack?
Other peoples' answers after the jump…
| The Nature of the Scooby Snack | Would they eat them? |
|---|---|
| Ginger snaps. | Of course. They must have been delicious. ("Didn't those things give them powers or something too?) |
| Tiny Teddies. | Yes. |
| Chocolately dog treats. | Of course. (Desired result: "special powers".) |
| Peanut butter sandwich cookies. | Yes. |
| Brown. | Nope. They're dog snacks. |
| Decline to state. [Reason: not a Scooby fan.] * | - |
| Dog Biscuits. | "I have eaten dog biscuits." |
A summary:
- # people who think they're cookies: 3
- # people who think they're dog treats:3
- # people who would eat them even believing they're dog treats: 2
- # people who are Bootylicious who would eat them even believing they're dog treats: 1
- # people who believe they would be granted some type of magical power after eating said treat: 2
- # of people who are Bootylicious who also want magical dog treat powers: 1
As you can see from this data, Scooby Snacks are widely held to be delicious, no matter what they taste like, and everyone seems to have a different assumption of what that taste actually is. Also, Bootylicious' eating habits and mental health are in question.
* This answer was returned by my mother, who clearly did not know Where It Was At as a young girl.

I had this as a trivia question once when playing trivial pursuit (I think). Scooby snacks actually (according to Hanna Barbera) taste like butterscotch.
