    The title is redundant. Any fact about Twinkies is automatically a Fun Fact.

    Do you have any idea when and why they started making the creme more watery? It seems like sometime in the early 90’s. Im not sure why they changed the classic forumula. Any ideas??

    I’m English, so I’ve never even had one. They look pretty nice though.

    “I’m English, so I’ve never even had one. They look pretty nice though.”

    Well, as the consumer of numerous Twinkies in my younger days, let me assure you that while they are perfectly edible, they do look better than they taste, LOL.

    In my opinion, twinkies should not be allowed to be sold. I do not care if people think they taste good, just look around. Do you see all the obece people in the world today! Well now you know why they are like that! And by the way, Anon, you should be happy that you have never had a twinkie, the picture on a computer, truck, or a commercial isn’t even a real twinkie anyway. It’s just styrofoam that has been spray painted and/or is computer generated. Take that into consideration miss I want a pool of twinkies.

    I totally disagree with Sam!In my opinion twinkies are the best at the fairs and theme parks. The are a very good snack,but I DO agree with Sam because they are bad for you so only eat then once in a while! That goes for you Shelby! They are not as good as they used to be. Well anyway, Miss Sam is my older sister! And she is a girl who likes the following: Star Wars,Eragon,Harry Potter,Dragons,Horses, and her boyfriend Drew! so anyway i disagree with my oblivious, and quite odd sister! so My point is dont eat to many twinkies or it could be the DEAD END of YOU!
    Thanks for reading!

    As a result of the greed mad industries out there , sadly Twinkies are no longer even worth the plastic they are in. Like , where is the filling these days ?

    i have a theory.. and the dude who eats a crap-ton of twinkies might be proof of it… i find it odd that the rate of obesity and heart disease has raised significantly in last decades, but so has life expectancy. so has the use of preservatives and fake ingredients in our food. i think that because of the overuse of these products are LITERALLY preserving our bodies and halping us live longer.. anyone? not saying i’m right, but it seems realistic.

    Twinkies are awsome. I mean come on it has been around for generations. As for it being non nutritional fuck it… anything good is either bad for you or not moral. But you know what……. twinkies rock.

    first twinkies are the best… i dont know how you can all diss twinkies they taste great

    second, the idea behind industry is to earn a profit and they do that by finding cheaper ingredients that replace the role of more expensive ingredients that are more likely to spoil, would you pay for a twinkie if it cost more and spoiled in three days?

    third, preservatives dont make you live longer, they are primarly there as antimicrobial agents and most are digested by your body and are neiher harmful or beneficial for your body, but it is good for the twinkie because it stops the growth of mold and bacteria that can harm you… the reason we are living longer is we have access to better diets and better medicine available in first world nations

    fourth, im not fat and i eat plenty of twinkies, in fact i wrestle so i need to make weight and… being obese is a choice, it is in no stretch of the imagination forced down your throat, yes some genes have been proven to play a role in obesity but there are plenty of nutritous foods and diet plans as well as simple exercise will keep your body metabolizing your food and burning calories keeping you in shape and the proper weight so every once in awhile you can have a comfort food like a twinkie in MODERATION

    and lastly you should be more informed before making such comments… if you want some good reading on what is in your twinkie i highly reccommend “Twinkie, Deconstructed” by Steve Ettlinger, it is worth sitting down and reading…

    Twinkies are a gift of the Gods. I also loved Hostess “Lil’ Angels.” There was only one better than the aforementioned…Hostess “King Dons.” Oh man, I loved those little chocolate enrobed gems. I once ate eight two-packs of those at one sitting. (drunk) I also loved Tastykake Coconut Juniors.

    I agree with All of you. Sometimes they taste good sometimes they taste bad. Depends on what kind of mood I’m in. As for being unhealthy ..Yes.. Most junk food is. If you want something sweet to eat that is healthy dont go in the snack isle looking for it. As for the comment on cigarettes, they ARE disgusting! And people who smoke em smell really bad! No matter HOW many times they bathe. The smell is always there with them when they smoke. and so is that disgusting yellowish stain that comes with it. Enough of cigerette bashing. Twinkies are the subject. Like cigs everyone has their own opinions about em but mine is the best!LOL

    People, Twinkies aren’t the #1 cause of obese. EVER HEARD OF MCDONALDS?!?!? And….they are DELICIOUS. I do agree that Twinkies are unhealthy though. They are good to eat though every once in a while…

    My wife and I are going to the Chicago area next week. We saw Twinkies being made on “Good Eatd”. Would like to take our granddaughters to see the plant. Can you give us any details as to tours and address?
    Thank you.
