What's in a Twinkie?

Ever wonder what's in a Twinkie?

As a kid, I ate several, along with other processed cakes and pies, usually in the lunch I carried to school. I haven't given Twinkies a lot of thought since then, but they are still on the market, and our kids (and adults) are still eating them. All sorts of stories have been told about Twinkies. Like how if you put one in a landfill it would still be there a decade or two later, still ready to eat. (I'm wondering who did that experiement if it's true).

Here's an interesting and scary article today on the Twinkie and its ingredients. Be sure to click on the links too.

Gulp! Take a gander at a Twinkie’s 37 or so ingredients

we have to be careful with what we eat. there are so much out there that we have no idea whats in them. some places are better then others but check the label
