Are you happy Atkins?! Twinkies bankrupt!

Meh. Zingers are better.

Who counts the calories in blow? I mean, if you’re going to get jacked up on nose candy, why would you worry about a couple extra carbs? It isn’t like it’s health food to begin with. It’s probably cut with Drain-o or something, and that is worse for you than any amount of carbs. Damn, that is pitiful. I wonder how the cartels are going to…

:: someone whispers in my ear ::

Nevermind.

Damnit.

Now I am craving twinkies at 7 o’clock in the morning. grrrrrrrrrrr

Thanks. :frowning:

It’s simple. We just need to come up with a fad diet based on Twinkies.

Duh.

NPR got the award for the Best Use of a Pop Song in a Serious Story when it used “Baby I’m a-Want You” by… wait for it… Bread.

The amusing part is that it has more “carbs” than Diet Coke.

This made me laugh out loud. (I originally wrote “snort with laughter” and realized I was making an inadvertant bad joke).

And now, this yackass will explian to all us dunces how to make a low carb Twinkie!!! Please enlighten us!

Booo…hisssss, to you. Go piss on someone else’s pity party.

Heck, the frigging beef industry was taking a beating for a long time because red meat was considered poison. How could they not come out with low-meat versions of beef? Dumbasses. :rolleyes:

The only way I’ll eat a Twinkie is if it’s been dunked in coffee.

My God! What will RJ do? :eek: Will the Strategic Twinkie Reserve sustain him?

For some reason my brain read it to the tune of the Stonecutters song from the Simpsons… and was disappointed when it didn’t all fit.
Who counts the calories in blow? Who makes Twinkies’ profits low?
We dooooo, WE do!
Who sells lies to the obese? Who’s the sweets and starch police?
We do, we doooo!

And to think…I just discovered Devil’s Food Twinkies.

Curse you, Dr. Atkins!

Wasn’t there a “Twinkie Alert” a few years ago? I remember everybody running off to buy twinkies, and they were selling on ebay for $20 per box.

I’ve never had a Twinkie, and never want to. Although I loooooooooove Ding Dongs, and Susie Q’s, and Snowballs, and Banana Flips

This actually could suck big time for Kansas City, where Interstate Bakeries is located. Lots of jobs lost if they shut down. It’s not just the low-carb craze, either, it’s the monumentally bad management practices the company has endured over the last few decades.

Okay, enough “reality” on to your ‘fun’ thread. :slight_smile:

OH, and I really like C2. Not because it’s lower-carb, either. I think it tastes great. Diet Coke tastes like chemical piss, IMeversoHO.

Note that the “low carb craze” is just a management excuse. The company has been mismanaged for a couple decades. If the stockholders fire all the top management and start over, the company can come back just fine.

Remember:

  1. When a company slowly goes south, management always blames someone else.
    1. is always a lie.

Interstate Bakeries may go out of business, but I bet the various Hostess brands (Twinkies etc.) get sold off to other manufacturers and stay in production.

Wasn’t that on some sitcom or something?

Are you thinking of the Great Asbestos Twinkie Recall?

No more Twinkies? How will Batman defeat the Joker this month?

Roger Bennati’s thirty-year-old Twinkie® just appreciated significantly.
