NO MORE TWINKIES
« on: November 16, 2012, 12:37:17 PM »
Hostess is closing their doors, better invest in twinkies soon
lest you are stuck with wandering the world over for that last Twinkie
 ala Zombieland (Woody Harrellson goes on for the entire movie
of how he  wants one... just one!!)

I'm all about those Faralos! Actually I heard that they lost like 360million$ last year, and if they didn't settle the strike they'd pack  it up. Let that be a lesson to the unions- push too hard, and you won't have a job. Thus, no dues coming in.

Let me see.
Yellow cake mix, or 50% corn starch + 50% wheat flour + Rumford Baking Powder + milk + Crisco or Oil + Eggs.
Light Whipping Cream, whipped and stiffened with Confectioner's Sugar, or better yet, with Whole Sugar.
Real Vanilla or milk chocolate for the Cream.
Optional Fresh Diced Strawberries for the Cream.

I'll be alright. :)

I also have this cool recipe for making Deep Fried Twinkies
complete with a sugared coating sauce and warmed Raspberry topping
 a whole one tops the calorie charts  somewhere around 1200
 425 for the Twinkie, about 500 for the coating
and another 300 or so for the raspberry topping!
Yummy! bet ya' can feel your arteries hardening just thinking about it
usually I cut it into thin slices and dribble the raspberry sauce over it
as it is w-a-y too sweet to eat by oneself

Twinkies will be back this summer as I understand. A buyer bought up the company at the bargain price of 400 mil$. Supposedly they'll be up by the summer- good news. Now you can get off that ledge and not jump.... :rolleyes:
