So, you've never seen moldy Twinkies?

Umm, actually, no, I never have, and I'm pretty sure I've
seen some that were quite old. I suppose if they get wet, they
will start to rot.


They only have a 30 day shelf life, unlike the Urban Myths to the
contrary. I have seen them covered in bread mold when someone left them
laying around. Not a pretty sight.

Jay Leno ate a 12 year-old unopened twinkie on air

That's open to debate. He does a lot of things that aren't real.
Like those 'Jay Walking' segments. If it was 12 years old, id would
have dehydrated and turned to dust. I had military rations that were
processed in the late '40s, when I was in the Army. They were almost 30
years old. The crackers were dust. Even though they were sealed in a
steel tin, they were stale and just turned to dust when you tried to
pick them up.

Jay wouldn't be funny, if he didn't lie all the time. That's what
second rate comics do for a living. If he was a better liar, he would
forecast the weather.



I haven't had a Twinkie since I was 8 or so, and I didn't like them
them. I can't stand anything like them or Wonder bread. No loss to me!
I do feel for the owners...destroyed by the union.
