They just don't taste the same and they are smaller. Same with the Ding Dongs. The Twinkies are still good but not quite as good as the old days.I haven't had one in a really long time. What changed?

Those orange ones look so good! I can't remember trying one of those. Definitely not when I was young. They do look like I might have seen them before. I just looked them up at Walmart; they still carry them. Very tempting. For nostalgia value.I liked other Hostess cakes better. My favorites were the orange cupcakes
If I saw them in a double pack I'd definitely get them, but I don't need a whole box of them.Those orange ones look so good! I can't remember trying one of those. Definitely not when I was young.

Speaking of MoonPies, @Feelslikefar , do you know they have banana flavored ones now? They're mini and the calorie count isn't as terrible as the full size.. pretty durn good.Can't remember eating Twinkies grewing up, being a 'Southern Boy', lived on 'Moonpies'.
The famous "Ten-cent Lunch" of the Depression was a Moonpie and a RC Cola.Can't remember eating Twinkies grewing up, being a 'Southern Boy', lived on 'Moonpies'.
My back up was a bag of Lance peanuts dumped into a bottle of RC Cola.
With that diet, wonder how I made it to adulthood...

I can't remember ever having more than 2 or 3 Twinkies in my lifetime... I wasn't impressed. I have always been a Little Debbie girl for some of those products, though... mainly Star Crunch and Oatmeal Pies. For cupcakes I like the TastyKake chocolate with the buttercreme frosting and chocolate stripe.
When I was young, Twinkies were one of my snacks of choice. Oily, sweet, sticky, soft and full of chemicals. Yum!
I haven't eaten one in a long time, but I've been thinking of them lately.

Anyone else enjoy Twinkies in their youth?
It was just the same for me, until I was maybe 13, 14. In the same period, I also bought small packages of very salty pretzels and loved those.Hostess Cupcakes for me. How could you not love such a rare, exotic treat as a child? As an adult, it makes my stomach turn just thinking about them.
Yes that’s them!Don't know what that is, so I looked it up. Is it this? This one is filled with peanut butter creme.
