Ron_B Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Wanted to add this to the Food Inc. thread, but Kathy probably would have freaked. Today is Twinkie's 80th birthday!!! All together now... "Freedom's just another word - for - 40 pounds to lose" (*Chicago Trib) Link to comment
Twisties Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 When I saw the thread title I was really wondering which board member this was gonna be about. Iffin' it was gonna be Tasker, then I figured there would some real trouble brewing. Link to comment
Paul Mihalka Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I guess I missed all the posts from Twinkie... Link to comment
Les is more Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 The best part is that there is likely a Twinkie out there that is actually 80 years old, still on a grocery shelf and fresh as the day it left the factory! Link to comment
Kathy R Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 The best part is that there is likely a Twinkie out there that is actually 80 years old, still on a grocery shelf and fresh as the day it left the factory! and no doubt somebody here would EAT IT To suggest Twinkie has a birthday is to suggest it's alive. Ya, and I hear polyester is grown in Illinois. Link to comment
Quinn Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Although an 80 year old Twinkie might count as a green vegetable at this point. --- Link to comment
Nice n Easy Rider Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 The best part is that there is likely a Twinkie out there that is actually 80 years old, still on a grocery shelf and fresh as the day it left the factory! and no doubt somebody here would EAT IT To suggest Twinkie has a birthday is to suggest it's alive. Ya, and I hear polyester is grown in Illinois. First it was "fat is bad". Then it was "carbs are bad". It's only a matter of time until someone finds something good that can be attributed to eating a twinkie. Link to comment

tallman Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Diminished capacity doesn't mean you feel bad. If it did, all the politicians would be so sick they'd need excellent health care. "A Twinkie is not a cigarette, you know," Mrs. Obama said at a forum on obesity, sponsored by Newsweek. "And what parents need is just information about what's in the Twinkie and how much of this we can eat". Will was misquoted. He really said, "I never met a Twinike I didn't like. Link to comment
