Yeah today's yute knows too much already. Ha. The Twinkie is back, by the way.
Green Twinkie? ?
Man, i've been caving a question like this ALL day ;] alrite, so i was curious about the same idea of coloring twinkies a while back. I gained the courage to dial up the Twinkie company, (1800-twi-nkie), and they gave me the info i wanted. so i suggest you ring 'em up!!
what is the shelf life of a hostess twinkie?
forever. (:
not really. the myth has been anywhere from 6 months to years.
but on a serious note, it seems twinkies have a shelf life of only 25 days, which is still a feat.
if i bake a cake and just sit it on the counter, it's not so good after 5-7 days, and even refrigerated, only about 10.
"Twinkies have a shelf life of twenty-five days, not seven years, and certainly not fifty years. Even so, twenty-five days is an unusually long time for a baked product to stay fresh. The secret to Twinkies' longevity is their lack of dairy ingredients: because dairy products are not part of the formula, Twinkies spoil much more slowly than other bakery items."
"Shelf life
A common urban legend claims that Twinkies have an infinite shelf life or can last unspoiled for a relatively long time of ten, fifty, or one hundred years due to the chemicals used in their production.[22] This urban legend is false, although Twinkies can last a relatively long time (25 days or more). In reality, Twinkies are on the shelf for a short time; a company executive told the New York Times in 2000 that the "Twinkie is on the shelf no more than 7 to 10 days."[23] Twinkies' myth of having a long shelf life has been referenced in films and television shows such as Die Hard, WALL-E, Zombieland, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, The Simpsons, Wizard of Id, Lost and Family Guy."
