Weekend Fun: Just Say No! To Twinkie Ingestion
There are so many reasons why foods like the Twinkie are bad for you and bad for the environment that it makes almost no sense to even go into it. Food, real food, does not last a million years on the convenient shelf. Twinkies are a waste of energy, waste of resources, waste of money and chock full of stuff you don’t need.
However, in the spirit of making something good out of a bad situation here’s a plan: A better use of your time (and health) then eating Twinkies is to perhaps play with them. You and your kids can have a lot of weekend fun at the T.W.I.N.K.I.E.S. website.
T.W.I.N.K.I.E.S. stands for “Tests With Inorganic Noxious Kakes In Extreme Situations.” Most of these tests may convince you that Twinkie cakes honestly should be considered inedible.
Many of these tests are somewhat dangerous so be sure that if your kids visit the site that you make it clear that experiments, while fun, must be done with an adult.
It won’t be the kiddos favorite but my favorite experiment on the site is the Twinkie intelligence test.
Have fun!

I have always hated twinkies. They are just gross. I guess I am lucky, we try to keep our kids out of the salad while making it. They steal the tomatoes, black olives, and chickpeas. That is their first love in treats. Oh and bananas.

I’ve never liked them either. Cedar won’t eat them thankfully. He sounds like your kids. He’ll ask for whole red bell peppers for breakfast or broccoli and rice for dinner. I’m pretty lucky :)
