So who would have thought the Cheese Doodle was Julia Childs favorite snack
" Morrie R. Yohai, 90, the creator of the crunchy, finger-staining orange Cheez Doodles snack, has died.

Yohai died of cancer July 27 at his Long Island home in Kings Point, his son, Robbie, said today"...

For a long time, he kept a picture of Julia Child eating a bag of Cheez Doodles with a caption that called it her favorite snack, Yohai added.

When the family vacationed in California in 2004, he said, they went to a museum that had a room-size installation by artist Sandy Skoglund called “The Cocktail Party,” a work made entirely of Cheez Doodles.

“The whole room was made of Cheez Doodles, the table, chairs, glasses, the people's hair,” said Robbie. He said his mother was very excited and “proceeded to tell everyone in the museum that my father was the creator of the Cheez Doodles.”...
