Goodbye Hostess..

Don't like Twinkies, but I have a soft spot for the cupcakes, and that spot is getting rounder everytime I eat one,lol

Never had a Twinkie but my lad once brought me a Hershey Bar from the US and I found it to taste like.....lets just say 'nothing very pleasing to the palate'.

Hostess is to cakes as Hershey's is to chocolate.

Hey! I like Hershey's.

Of course I also like eating spaghetti and chili out of cans...

Yikes almost $5.00 per pound. I never thought about it from that standpoint.

My very favorite Hostess quality snack back when I was hungry at a 7-11
in LA back in the 90's.

This could really fill you up and drain a big Gulp at the same time.

I always liked to hold them by the frosted top and eat the cake and filling first. The tops are fairly hard chocolate so it's easy to eat them last.

I'd do just the opposite. First a quick nibble around the edges then i'd peel the top right off, eating the cake last. Dark chocolate mmm mmm!
