Twinkies Are Not “Nuclear Foods”

You know that if a nuclear calamity were to occur, you need to shelter down with enough supplies, ration, and food to last you and your family. Of course, getting food stuffs that have a long shelf life is preferred. Hence, the idea of stocking up on Hostess snacks like Twinkies which I call “nuclear foods.” Sadly the sweetest comeback ever is not really nuclear food as shown here.

Twinkies don’t last forever?!

Call It a Comeback

Sorry, LL Cool J, but this indeed is a comeback with Twinkies returning to the shelves in mid-July. Heck, even the boxes will be emblazoned with the phrase:

The Sweetest Comeback In The History Of Ever

So go ahead and indulge on those Twinkies you stockpiled. Don’t worry about that 45-day expiration window – still good, especially when stirring coffee.

How Do You Stir Your Morning Coffee?

After a day of continuous eating and giving thanks followed by a night of Black Friday (online) shopping and story watching, there is only one way to stir your morning coffee – with a Twinkie.

My Twinkies Advent Calendar

I have a new advent calendar this year, thanks to the prospective demise of Hostess.

Hostess Twinkie Advent Calendar

Enjoy one golden sponge cake each and every day of December leading up to Christmas. Who needs Christmas with a Twinkie a day? Wonder if these Twinkies advent calendars would sell on eBay?

Because Every Kid Needs to Know…

It’s just not right that kids of the near future will not know what Twinkies, Ho Hos, and Ding Dongs are. Because of Hostess’ bankruptcy and impending liquidation of assets, the future of Twinkies looks bleak (or does it?). I’m not taking chances and stocked up for one last sugar rush so that my kids and nieces and nephews know the lore of a Twinkie (also, these make for a fun stocking stuffer).

Currently, Sam’s Club is well stocked.

I’m also glad I bought my Twinkie the Kid shirt when I had the opportunity.
