Well, I think it is important to say that Snack Cakes are never better than right off the line. For example, a Hostess Apple Pie right off the line????????? Baby!!!

But back to the next fav Factory Tour. I went to Memphis, Tenn to see the plant there. Keep in mind that IBC also owned Dolly Madison. Soooo, in Memphis, they made bread AND Honey Buns for Hostess and for what they called Bear Claws for Dolly. Now, I will tell you this. If you have never had a Honey Bun warm, you are not living right. So, my advice to you, if you buy a Honey Bun, is to warm it. But think of this, a Honey Bun/Bear Claw is a Yeast Raised product that when Deep Fat Fried, is, well, Well, WELL, you gotta have it!!

So if you are in The Plant, you see these Honey Buns just out of the oven get Icing Glazed. They are about to head to the "cooler" so they can be packaged, BUT, if a feller is there and can GRAB one just after the Icing Glaze............... Warm yeast raised structurer, cinnamon and sugar for taste and then topped with white icing????? Get it before it is cool!! It is like swiping a freshly baked Cookie from Momma's counter. Hide it!! It is Toooooo Good!!

Sorry, I got a bit lost there. Best B.

Love the honey buns, but I would put them in the freezer and eat them frozen. Same with the cupcakes, eat them frozen.

yep Cockroaches & Twinkies will be the only thing left,
after we're all gone

I loved them as a kid. Had one about 5 years ago, and like everything else tasted very little like they did in 1975. The cream had a chemical taste. Would be interesting to compare the ingredient list from today to the wrapper on a 1975 model.

Ditto

I noticed today , over at my sisters house for Fathers Day

That a Spotted Cow in a aluminum can tastes terrible compared to a Spotted Cow in a bottle

Honest , no Joke

And I sampled many just to confirm

Whoa Buck.!

That was Twikie.

I like the twinkies in the blue forum.....

Back in the late 70s-early 80s I worked a few blocks from the STL Wonder bakery (former Hussmann plant). It didn't smell like they were baking bread there.

That was Twikie.

It was intended as a play on words.

Well, I just had one.

I can only say that I don't think I have been missing out on too much by not trying one up until now. I guess they taste a bit better fresh from the factory.

Now I just need to get a set of 100 Plastic soldiers in a Footlocker, just like the ones on the back page of comic books I read as a kid.

Forget about the Sea Monkeys.
