Mind = blown...I was yesterday years old when I learned that Little Debbie is a real person! 

Via @blackwaxcafe on Instagram, here are some fun facts about one of the most faces in food: 

Debbie McKee-Fowler is best known as the original Little Debbie - hers is the face of Little Debbie snacks! She was born in Tennessee and she's also the executive vice president of McKee foods, a company that was founded by her grandfather, O.D. McKee & his wife, Ruth. The company was founded at the hight of the Great Depression. 

Debbie's face began appearing on McKee snacks in August of 1960. In 2017, Debbie was honored for her charitable contributions to her community at the 30th Annual Chattanooga Women of Distinction awards ceremony. Her family has an estimated net worth of 1.4 billion dollars. 

(Let's also take a moment to acknowledge Debbie's contributions to society in the form of oatmeal creme pies, cosmic brownies and Christmas tree cakes!)
