That’s right, I didn’t throw the Twinkie away! Instead it’s been living in the back of my closet for over a year and the results speak for themselves. I give you, the Twinkie Aged for One Year Plus Several Months in all of it’s glory:
Ok, I realize the Twinkie looks exactly the same, but it doesn’t FEEL exactly the same. It’s gotten a little firmer, like it’s slowly drying out. Of course, this means that it’s doing the opposite of turning to liquor but that won’t deter me, mostly because I have barely put any effort into this experiment in the first place. So I guess what I’m saying is that I will check up on the Twinkie again in another year or so to see if anything has changed.
…unless that triumvirate of Twinkies overwhelm my resolve. Then I don’t know what I’ll do. So I guess mark you calendars now for the Twinkie Aged for One Year Plus Several Months PLUS another year or several months or maybe I’ll never mention it again. There’s really know way to know at this point.
Well, it’s been two years now: how’s the twinkie? (^_^)
It’s resting comfortably under my bed with a significant amount of other random items. Once I find the physical (and mental) strength to rescue the Twinkie you will be the first to know, I promise!
I have a 6 year old Twinkie in my desk drawer. I bought a pack when Hostess was “going out of business” in 2012 figuring it would be valuable. It is not. I have not decided if I will eat it or not. Maybe next year.
I think the real question is: has the Twinkie turned into liquor yet?!?
I’ve marked it down on my calendar, I’ll be back here in a year…
Be prepared for amazement and horror! Or more likely mild interest in the fact that the Twinkie will probably look pretty much the same.
It’s been a year. Come back.
You’re right! The time has come to update the world on my Twinkie experiment.
Oh I totally forgot about the twinkie! Will you drink the dry, stale filling with a straw?
That’s the plan! Since the Twinkie is getting more stale by the day I’m not sure how drinkable it will be though…
Silly customer! You cannot hurt a Twinkie!
Sadly you can, they’re a lot more destructible then you might think.
How do you think that would taste if someone ate it?
Probably very stale and very dry. I know there are rumors about Twinkies lasting past the apocalypse but based on my limited research I don’t think that will be the case.
