I waited 40 years to try a Twinkie. They used to be advertised in Marvel comics back in the 70's and 80's and they seemed delicious. They sadly are not. They are like sugar infused shaving cream wrapped in an over sweetened bath sponge.

Dated stock is my guess, as always with b&m

A Twinkie is the only treat that will survive a nuclear holocaust. I doubt being out of date would be a problem on something this artificial.
I often say these are not very nice, they taste as artificial as they look and I wouldn't ever buy them for anyone else. But at this price, I encourage people to try them and make their own mind up as you will probably never find them cheaper. Heated for the price even though they are not for me.
