    I saw those the other day. I would never buy them (don't find them tempting at all.)

    Honestly, sounds a looks pretty disgusting...but then, I've probably only had like one twinkie in my whole life...they've never appealed to me.

    I have never had luck reheating fried food and coming up with a really appetizing product. If I wanted a fried Twinkie, I'd probably just try to find a place that was making them fresh.

    Problem is, I could probably eat about 4-7 of those in a sitting if I tried hard enough. Calories would be ridiculous.

    I miss those pies as well from Hostess, apple, cherry, chocolate. I picked one up the other day out of curiosity to see what the calories were.. OMFG! No wonder I was fat before, I used to eat a couple of those at a time.

    Wouldn't a fried twinkie be the same thing as a donut? Just a creamstick that was fried after having the cream put in, instead of after?

    I don't see the draw.

    The only thing I liked better than Nutty Bars was Hostess Ho-Ho's.. remember the ones in foil, individually wrapped? Good times! We used to keep them in the freezer. Evil Evil things!

    Well, they don't have trans fat anyway. Maybe I would try a bite to see of kts worth the other 200 cals. Maybe idk, maybe not.

    If someone else is buying maybe. Packaged baked goods don't appeal to much. Bakeries, now that's different.

    I had a pink twinkie once when I was about 10. It wasn't what I expected, too airy and like a marshmellow. I never liked marshmellows.

    My bad! It was the Hostess Ding Dongs that came in foil lol. Ho Ho's were similar, and almost as good. ;P

    I think people get a taste for certain things, even the sound of the package, its design and how the celo sounds when its opened and stuff. So probably a donut wouldn't be the same for a true twinkie connaiseur.

    I tried my first Suzy Q the other day because...they came back and why not? Kind of a disappointment. I LOVE Ding Dongs and Ho Hos tho (and the Little Debbie 100 calories per cake version in which I would polish off the whole box in one sitting).

    Loved Hostess Twinkies snd Choc Cupcakes when I was a kid. Have seen the fried Twinkies at the county fair but never had the desire to eat one.

    I've had the regular deep-fried ones before. They're really tasty, so it would be a good idea to keep most of them out of sight, less you'd eat the entire package in one go [there's 7 in a box].
