Oh goody goody - got to start shopping at walmart now that they will have one of the leading favorite of the American obese's psuedo-foods on the shelves.

Thanks

This was the scariest part to me:
The more you hear about these new and improved Twinkies, the more they sound like a food to have around in case the end of the world is promised again. They've been newly created to last three weeks longer than the original Twinkie, they have an expiration date of 45 days away from the day they're package.

Hostess said it is freezing some of the Twinkies so some stores can put their own expiration dates on the packages when they go out on the rack. These improved snacks sound like they would fit very nicely in your cabinet next to canned goods, which last a good while in storage. They might be the only snack food fit for a stockpile of emergency food because of their new longevity promise!

Thanks

Is that even legal? Aren't they supposed to have an expiration date? BTW the idea of 3 more weeks? They almost CERTAINLY use hydrogenated oils, or psuedo foods. EITHER are NOT healthy!

Pre-made sweet cakes like that do not interest me. Give me some fresh-made cake instead, please, and hold the crappy icing. Fresh fruit on top tastes a lot better.

I LOVE strawberry shortcake using Twinkies as the "shortcake".

April,
I don't eat that crap either.
I am a sucker for homemade brownies and German chocolate cake though.

Even bakery cake and cookies don't taste as good as they used to. Well -- Krispy Cremes are awesome. I usually don't eat sweets other than cheesecake that aren't homemade. They just don't cut it.

I can't believe I forgot the Walmart launch date for the Twinkies. Now I'm going to get out in this outrageous heat and humidity. As sweet as I am I know I'll melt down; before I can get the Twinkies back to the house.

You'll be okay as long as you rub a Twinkie all over yourself before you head back to your house. You won't be allowed to expire until 45 days later.

Well, I took a lot of my college courses while still in high school. But you are right, I have led a pretty sheltered life. But...

That doesn't mean I don't know how to have fun. I'm just not sure that fun involves peanut butter, dogs and a surprise party.

Can someone please send me a pack? I really want to test how they taste.

Meanwhile, can you please share you best Twinkie memory if you don't mind?

I shore can! Many moons ago I asked ole Twinkie Thadpucker for a date and she accepted. We went down to Stumpwoody Lake and parked our truck thar under the moonlight with the crickets a providin a nighttime chorus. We climbed into the back of the truck and sat down on the couch and looked deep into each others eyes.

First thing you know we commenced to kissin. It commenced to gettin real warm when we swapped tabacky and I started to feel tingly all over! Twinkie turned to me and said, "Thad" (she said that cause that is my name)... she said, "Thad, I shore would like to get into yore pants!" I said, "Alright Twinkie" and I commenced to take my pants off and give them to her. She got into them and we commenced to kissin again!

I think I had best stop there cause this forum is mixed company and I don't want to say more that I am supposed to.
