At my first desk job when I was 25 at lunch time I would go to the nearby convenience store and bring back Twinkies to eat in my office. The secretaries were aghast. They were into sprouts and raw broccoli. They decided I was too young for the job, so the boss thought that way too. I learned a lot and after that job I never had office politics problems in any future jobs. Twinkies taught me a lot about how to handle clerks and I am forever grateful.
Oh I have........ I've hooked up with BeerBoy's wife and sister............... at the same time! BAMS FAMS!
That's funny....I heard that HCP was a big fan of Ding Dongs, and that he's known as "Little debbie" on the inside. Who knew?
"Just at my first Twinkie" I assumed you were exaggerating, but it occurs to me you aren't. Your parents really never bought you a Hostess Twinkie? You never bought any yourself in your afterschool junior high snack expert days? Wow..most people ate their first one at about age 5. Used to fill up my hand. They must have downsized them in the 80s. I haven't changed a bit since I was 5. All these old people around me. What happened to the girls in pigtails?
Never really cared for Twinkies, but I had a deep fried Twinkie at the fair last year and that was pretty amazing.
You ate kingspeed? That sounds disgusting to me too . . . although not finishing makes me feel a little for speed.
I'm not cool because I don't think up gay food icons to gawk at, but I vaguely remember Hostess really made those for a short time. Even if not, they have always been made by home cooks, like for kids' birthday parties, using angelcake or sponge cake or something else sweet. Related: House of Pancakes had a pancake wrapped around a hot dog and maybe still does. You put syrup on it and it was good. I take that back. I'm pretty cool. I always dance around as I walk, snapping my fingers.
OMG, that was my best response post to an original post all year and not one rep or response. I know I have a low bar when it comes to "best response post to an original post" but still I thought my twist on the post played out perfectly line for line with his post. DC how do I rep myself?
When I was in reform school we had a nightly snack, and on Fridays it was candy/sweets products. There was a vegetarian in our group and she would often times on these days get a twinkie. One day she decided to read the ingredients list and found out there is animal fat inside twinkies. I felt bad for her, but her reaction was priceless. Alas, on future Fridays she scorned her once beloved Twinkies.
