(December 4, 2008)—New York City’s Times Square has its glittering crystal ball, but in Mobile, Ala., a giant electric Moon Pie will drop to mark the beginning of 2009.

The maker of Moon Pies also promises the world's largest pie for New Year’s Eve partiers to eat.

The exact figures haven't been released, but the bakery is talking about a 60-pound Moon Pie, that's four-feet across.

For the uninitiated, Moon Pies are a Southern favorite combining chocolate, graham cracker and marshmallow, and connoisseurs say it should be washed down with an RC Cola.
