# my pants are going to be to small...

Deep fried twinkies, why? because it's america and twinkies themselves were just not unhealthy enough.

# I thought

Someone told me that once, anyway.

# Very light
yellow sponge finger, filled with whipped cream which, being american, is sweetened to hell.

# It's this snack cake thing
with a creme filling that's horribly bad for you. They're very very good though. I think its origins come from back during the Great Depression in America, but even after the Depression, it stuck around!

yeah, they are really old. They cahnged the creme filling form bananna to vanilla over WWII because they needed bananna flavoring for there tanks.. i dont' know, they chnaged it for some reason. I guess theya re back to bananna recently, or they have two kinds, I don't eat them so i relaly don't know.

# There was a Hostess factory near where I grew up
where large amount of Twinkies were produced. I've never liked them, though - the sponge cake is somewhat rubbery and the filling is to sweet. Ho Hos are a different story.

# And?
sounds like the whole deep-fried mars bar thing, all over again... but with cakes instead of chocciebars.

3 years I spent out there, no more, all told - and I never once ate a twinky... and I feel absolutely no regrets. :-)

# maybe you would feel regret if..
you had eaten one in a previous life. But what do I know, I have never had one. But Yum-Yums..
