A couple weeks ago I cleaned out my cupboard for the first time in many years.
In the back of it was a box of Twinkies I had bought for my mother when she was still alive (she loved them). I figure it was three or four years old. I opened the box and looked at them and they looked to still be perfectly fine but I don't eat that stuff anymore (diabetes).
If only the Twinkies story had broken just a little sooner damnit. Now a box full of money sits in the landfill somewhere.

Come on. You didn't even take a bite? I would've had to. Even with diabetes couldn't you take just one bite? My Dad cheated every now and then. Then again, he isn't with us any more. It is your life and health. Didn't mean to butt in.

These symbols of cheap American decadence and artery paste will be right up their next to the Velveeta and Spam by summer.

And yes, you CAN make something with all three:

The above was the rage at the Iowa State Fair this last summer.

Deep fried butter on a stick.

Now I'm not exactly a gourmet chef but that doesn't even sound good to me... Oh well...

Actually it was my girlfriend. She won't even allow me to open a can which has an expiration date a week too long. I try to tell her that's all in her head but she's so stubborn that I get tired of arguing about it.

Well, if you're going to let a woman rule your world, go for broke!

It was something my Dad told me. Take from it what you will.

But, come on. You've been around the block. You know how to sneak sweets right?

OMG! Does your girlfriend read this forum?

Sorry.
