Twinkies back in stores today.

[Werewolf]

Head to Walmart for your retro Junkfood fix. Some stores get them as early as today with a full retail rollout starting the 15th.

Meh, i'd rather have my old standard - Tastykake Kandy Kakes

Awesome, great news!

I'm going to buy a 12 pack, and eat the first one whole, the second in one bite, and slowly enjoy the third, lol.

The taste is pure nostalgia, it takes me back, I realize there are superior quality pound cream cakes, like the ones at Whole Foods, those taste heavenly (natural and organic), but lack the childhood taste of Twinkies, I know, strange, I know, lol.

Technically not the same as the old ones. The new ones will have a later 'sell by' date on the box meaning the process has changed. Trivial.

I'm waiting for the cupcakes and fruit pies to come back.

[ShadowAvenger]

I wasn't too broken up about Twinkies leaving but I sure miss the fruit pies.

[Brazoo]

I think this is one issue where I stand alone on this board. If I want a baked treat I go to a bakery. I don't understand eating something full of sugar and fat if it doesn't taste delicious.

When are the fruit pies, Ho-Ho's, Ding Dongs, Suzi Q's, and snowballs coming back? Oh yeah, and glazed donuts.

[VintageMike]

I think more than than the Twinkies are coming back, twinkies are just getting the press because the of the name. If you miss the Fruit Pies and don't see them just hea dand pretty much any gas station of 7-eleven. Tastykake is making them same type of wrapper and all under "glazed pie" and they good.

[Red Hulk]

Still waiting for Choco-diles to return.

It will warm my heart seeing them back on the shelves. It was something we grew up with. It just didn't look right with them being gone.

[Rallygirl]

When they stopped making Twinkies last year, I had stocked up with six boxes. I gave them as gifts to friends. Now, a friend who works in distribution returned the favor with one of the first new boxes. They are definitely smaller now. He also said that to meet the expected first rush, these had been made last month and flash frozen.
