The Twinkie Afterlife

So... you forgot to take that Twinkie out of the back pocket of the jeans you've been wearing for the last three days. It's smashed. The plastic has popped. The spongy cake-like substance's last barrier of protection has been compromised and the pocket lint invasion has begun. It borders on the unrecognizable with only the Twinkie logo distinguishing it from a curiously elongated bag of well aged scrambled eggs. What is to become of this once cherished food product?

Twinkie Tacos

Items Needed:

  • 2 Hostess Twinkies (mashed)
  • 2 Flour tortillas
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Sugar
  • Marshmallow whip
  • Maraschino cherries

DIRECTIONS: Fry tortilla in buttered frying pan until crispy and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Spread mashed Twinkies on tortilla and top with warmed marshmallow whip and colored cherries! Ole!

You can find this and many more quasi-food creations at Planet Twinkie. I must say the Sushi looks.......... intriguing.
