Hostess RANT


If you adore Hostess products and are indulging in one right now CLICK OUT OF THIS POST RIGHT NOW. You will not like what I am about to blog about.

First off, all this "HYPE" about the Hostess brand closing and the immediate need to purchase and consume these snacks is a bunch of bull poop, in my own opinion. I'll begin with the fact that most people know that Twinkies will last FOR YEARS! What's wrong with this you ask? Well it's a BAKED GOOD. Ever leave bread, muffins, cake out for too long? What accumulates in it? If you answered mold, then you are correct. For some odd reason Twinkies don't mold. I had a Nutrition teacher that had a Twinkie posted on his wall. Weird I know. Under the Twinkie was a sign that said "Since 19??" I can't remember the exact year, but it still looked consumable!

Secondly, ever read the back of a Twinkies label? Somewhere amongst the ingredients that you don't know what they are and can't pronounce you will see BEEF FAT (I have yet to find a Twinkie's box and post the picture of the ingredients). Yes I'm talking about cow fat. The stuff that you are supposed to trim off when you eat meat. I mean if you like eating beef fat then go right ahead. This should teach you to read your labels people!

Lastly, I checked out Amazon.com and a 24 count box of Twinkies is selling for $100. Hey fat ass clicking "Add to Cart" how about you do yourself a favor and delete it from your cart and invest in some healthy food.

You do the math. Healthy food = Healthy body. Crappy food = Crappy body.

I'm by no means a health freak. I'm still learning things day by day. But I know that Twinkies will be something that I don't like eating.

I'll spare my rant about gelatin/gummy candies until some company pisses me off. I also don't want to rant about gelatin because I love me some Haribo Gummy Peaches. Hint: If my boyfriend ever reads this blog, these will get you out of practically any fight. Just cram about 5 pieces into my mouth and I won't stop smiling for an hour or so.

  1. ROFL! I feel exactly the same way. I never liked Twinkies at any point of my life. They were always too sweet, even for me!

    This hype is ridiculous. AND don't even get me started about how some people bring politics into this by saying, "Hostess survived the Great Depression, the war this and that, and now it fails while Obama is president."

    I'm no way in hell posting my thoughts about politics, but that is absolutely irrelevant. Business is business is business. Gotta twerk it to keep people comin, nom sayin!?
