It was known to be fact that the Twinkie could last for eternity and remain edible

Actually this is an urban legend, they last about 10 days in package, about 24 hours out of package (stale). That's it. Actually, perpetuating the lie that they last forever, because they are made out of chemical soup, is a big part of the reason why Interstate Bakeries has gone bankrupt.

TWICE.

But now I see into the heart of the political right.

Bankrupt banks - good must save them at all costs - too big to fail

Bankrupt insurance companies - good must save them at all costs - too big to fail

Bankrupt junk food manufacturer - good must save them - oh no an American icon - the Twinkie!

Bankrupt automotive company - DIE! DIE! DIE! Not that the Impala, Camaro, GTO, Charger, 300, Challenger, Daytona, were EVER American icons.

You do realize that the 12,000 Interstate Bakery employees are EVIL UNION EMPLOYEES OUT TO KILL YOU AND EAT THE BRAINS OF YOUR CHILDREN!!!!

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
