Thread: Twinkies, anyone?

I've been hearing about this "new" Twinkie. Remember when Hostess filed for bankruptcy last year, eventually shut down, thus ending the production of all those yummy, sugar-laden snacks we grew up with, including the famous Twinkie!?!

Well, Twinkies have made a comeback! They returned to store shelves earlier this month and I heard they're still as good as the originals.

So...will you be trying a Twinkie soon? I'm contemplating it myself...

Sadly I haven't eaten a Twinkie in years. Maybe once school starts I will buy some for a surprise snack or something for the kids but they have never even eaten one in their lives yet. My gawd that makes me sound like a horrible mom! Course, the 4 year old who doesn't like donuts to begin with may not even like twinkies. Hahaha who doesn't like donuts?!?! I mean really?!

@cali~jenn, i haven't had a Twinkie in years too! I'm planning to p/u a box this coming weekend tho. Your 4yo doesn't like donuts?! whaaaattt???!!
@Desert Sky, my, my, somebody is ahead of the game!

I know right? She insisted before our last camping trip she try them again cuz she likes them now. I bought a dozen random donuts... Se didn't like regular frosted with sprinkles at all. Said she liked the apple filled bear claw but I think she was trying to like it more than she liked it. The cream filled, same thing. Last time she had donuts before this, was about a year ago and she cried cuz she didn't like them so much!

I don't like doughnuts either, I also don't like things like Twinkies, or Joe Louis', I used to buy them for my kids when they were young, but they don't really eat them now. I have them in the house sometimes for my grandson, and h likes them, and donuts too. Lol. I'm more of a salty snacked, rather than a sweet snacker, I prefer popcorn, nuts, or pretzels, but I'll have to admit to loving chocolate covered almonds, or pretzels. Yum

Ok, cannot find twinkies anywhere!! I'm gonna see if Walmart has them today. Gotta get me a Twinkie!
