It was an ordinary day. Searching for a few packs of Hostess Twinkies to dunk in a glass of milk. Most of the shelves in the local grocery store have been emptied by food and dessert hoarders due to the ever present threat of the Coronavirus. And...today is no different...since there are NO Twinkies on the shelf. What can I do about my sugarvirus? My taste for the old-time Twinkie was recently rekindled when "Reminisce" magazine featured a story about the sweet treat. They had a headline that read: GOLDEN OLDIE STILL FRESH AT 90 - Fit for a wedding or a murder trial, Twinkie delights! Years and years ago you could always find a single pack or a value party pack somewhere in a kitchen cabinet, but with the advent of a variety of other new and interesting treats, Twinkies were only purchased about once a month.
The Twinkie was developed as a budget snack cake due to its inexpensive price. The Twinkie achieved a status high enough that it was placed in the Millennium Time Capsule. That was until a few staff members who were packing the time capsule decided that the sugary treat might eventually draw rodents, grabbed them from the capsule and devoured all of them.
How can you NOT like one of these? |

Buffalo Bob Smith, Howdy Doody and Clarabell Clown pushed Twinkies on TV. |
