    Oh no! Who makes Funny Bones? Hope it isn't them. Gotta check. Okay Drakes makes them. Whew!

    Remember how Archie Bunker loved Twinkies?

    I admit I do partake of these type things on occasion. There are times when I just barely make it through the work week and head to the A+ Sunoco for junk food.

    We will have to find you a replacement for the Twinkies

    Oh My! I rarely eat any of those little cakes anymore but I used to eat them alot. It's hard to choose my fav, probably Snowball or Twinkies. I'm diabetic and really shouldnt ever eat them again but they sure did taste good to me. I bought some Twinkies at a bread outlet a month or so ago when clerk said Twinkies etc was closing... thought I'd have some for old times sake... sad for everyone involved. I hope some company takes over and makes all of them again.

    Oh dear. I should have researched this better.

    Well, I make a pretty darn good Hershey's cocoa cake from scratch with peanut butter icing.

    I won't miss any of these sweets because I never ate any of them before. I love sweets but I just never ate any hostess sweets. I'm sure that there are plenty of things out there to help fill the void for all of the people with a sweet tooth.

    Don't know if I can live without Snoballs, especially the holiday colored ones. I have a box of globalls, they're orange for Halloween. The rest I could live without.
