Got a link for this awesome twinkie recipe???

I LOVE twinkies. Too bad they would probably survive a nuclear attack with all those preservatives.

You only know because you are reading it straight off the box!


As for me, I have never really liked Twinkies.














Ding-Dongs, however...

I like Twinkies, but I'm not a really big fan of them. My dad is, though.

For his birthday a few months ago my sister and I found a copy of "The Twinkie Cookbook" (no kidding...they really do have one). We made him a six-course meal of Twinkie dishes. Most of the dishes were pretty good, but after six courses we were all feeling pretty tired of Twinkies! I don't think I'll be eating another one for quite a while. (It was a lot of fun, though!)
