Yeah that's expensive as fuck, but it's cheaper than most people are buying them for. Would rather buy them now and have them than crave one in a couple weeks and not be able to get one.


I got 10 boxes for that btw. So it's not like I paid 50+ for them. And honestly in a couple weeks people will probably be paying hundreds for them. Figured they last forever so YOLO


That is all. At the mountain when I go down to the lodge for lunch, I'll be enjoying a nice golden twinkie, jealous yet?

I've never had a twinkie. In my entire life. You must feel my pain, i'm sure of it.

You must send me a twinkie in the mail. In return, i'll grant you something most valuable for your efforts.

I've been selling them on eBay for insane prices.
Hostess wasn't above capitalizing on America's obesity problem and neither am I.

Yikes... I don't see how people can honestly think these things will appreciate in value.

They wont stay fresh for over a year...

There is a sucker born every minute.

But seriously stuff doesn't stay fresh that long these days. Don't you idiots know this?

Even canned stuff tastes funky once you get to the sell by.

And I won't buy certain things if the sell by is within the next month (crackers or chips something you want crispy and fresh.)

Bud and Bud Lite taste like butthole if not drinken within the recommended 90 days of brewing or close.

Bud and bud light always taste like butthole. Your argument is invalid.

I usually hate when people make comments about english, as I don't give a fuck about proper english but "drinken"?

God I hope you're just fucking with me.

I'd rather make a grammatical error than spend 250 on crappy junk food.

I don't know whats worse that you purchased them for your own consumption/as an investment.

Twinkies aren't even good. All those things suck.

searched "zinger" on ebay and this is the first thing that came up: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Penis-Enhancement-Enlargement-Silicone-Blakoe-Ball-Zinger-Male-Testosterone-/170853448186?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27c7a8b9fa&_uhb=1#ht_2891wt_1208

Quite stupid that people are willing to pay 50 bucks plus on something you can still get at a supermarket. I like twinkies but think of the infinite amount of things that are better that cost 50 dollars.

Twinkies are disgusting.

Plenty of other awesome Hostess products. But man, Twinkies are ass.

People pay more on ebay because they do postage too. Do u really think someone who eats enough twinkies that he has to buy off ebay will be fit enough to make it to the store?

Twinkles weren't my favorite treat by hostess. It doesn't even matter though because I'm going to go any buy them once another company buys al their recipes.

The same can be said for McDonald's fries. That doesn't change the fact that they "spoil" by the next day, despite technically not having decomposed.

You drink budweiser. You pay twice the price of other equally shitty beers because the amount of money they spend advertising, had made it appeal to you.

Just saying.

I actually generally got these in my lunch to go skiin at them mountains. A ton of pbj, and a pack of those guys. That would keep me alive considering I was at the mountain from 7 am till 10 at night everyday I didn't have school in the winter. And got dropped off by the bus 3/5mid week days.

to be honest, I never liked any of hostess's products. they just gross me out for some reason. I think it might be because I ate a ton of twinkies and ho hos once and threw up. Whenever I eat something and throw it up it's ruined for me forever.
