Okay- I admit my guilty secret- I used to love Twinkies.
In junior high school, I suddenly had school lunch money to spend for the first time. Coming from a household where candy was a 4 time a year treat and all baked goods were baked from scratch by Mom, I spent all of 7th grade spending my lunch money on Tab, Twinkies, and Hostess Fruit Pies from the vending machine. ( I hope my Mom doesn't read this- she still doesn't know :wink:)
Might explain alot about my warped personality.... :lol:

I prefer Little Debbie's, the few times I eat them, that is! And my grandmother, who lives in South Jersey, brought my family TastyKake Butterscotch Krimpets at Christmas.
