So I heard not long ago that twinkies came back. There's been a lot of fuss about it for a while. I personally had not tried a Twinkie before so for the first time I decided to pick up a pack when I was at the store. It was not a good experience for me lol... Only a couple mins after eating my first one I felt sick, my stomach hurt and was growling. So then I picked up the pack and saw 290 calories for 1 Twinkie! I was like holy shit that's like an entire meal for me! Well twinkies are back and they have a decent taste, but a little too much sugar for me and getting sick wasn't fun :(

I'm sure worse things have passed through your lips. But my thought turned to a film made in 1970 which I am assuming could never be made or released in these less permissive times. It even has a cast of Jack Hawkins, Trevor Howard, Honor Blackman, Michael Craig, and of course Charles Bronson....the schoolgirl Twinky was played by Susan George who was about 19 at the time.

I find that I usually assume that junk food will taste great before stuffing it in my face. Then I realize that it tastes like crap and that I'm still hungry. I find KFC the worst for this.

I blame the excellent marketing, nostalgia and the fact that I can't cook haha.

I normally eat fish almost all the time. I don't like steaks, they are too heavy. Every once in a while I'll eat some lean turkey cuts. I barely ever eat chicken, maybe once a month.

Its kids food and if you dont start young you will probably never get a taste for processed creme filled pastry cakes. But they were originally designed with kids who played outside all day and came home to otherwise balanced meals in mind.

I don't know if the newly released twinkies taste the same and till I try one I would not be sure. But the originals were quite tasty as a cheap snack especially if they were kept in the fridge.

I like cajun style steaks. Regular steaks I really don't care for though. Even then it's a lot for me to eat. Maybe a special treat once a year xD.

Well special treats are nice once in a while. I think we could all agree on that one.

Yeah ,Hostess Bakeries went bankrupt and they sold off the rights to their brands
to other bakeries ,which eagerly gobbled them up! Including Bimbo Bakeries ,here in Los Angeles.
Bimbos ,HoHos , DingDongs ,Twinks ... it's so hard to decide!
