I don't want to think about it! Ohh, the pain! I am the junk food king, and they have
been my kingdom. What's next!? Dolly Madison has to start turning tricks?

^^ Little Debbie has been turning tricks for years. That's why she's more popular.

But yeah... kinda sucks that twinkies are leaving us. However... if you can't stay afloat in the fattest country in the world, you deserve to go bankrupt.

Yep. If they can't keep their chit together better than that, they need to make some changes. Hopefully this time they'll fire Twinkie the Kid. The guy's a dumbass.

The filling in Twinkies is whipped sugar and lard. When I saw that on TV my appetite for Twinkies dropped. They should have kept that to themselves and the world would have been a better place.
