Actually I tried flan for the first time the other day...way too sweet for my tastes...the consistency just doesn't stack up to the tongyi puddings..I was just getting desparate because I havent had them for like 5 years now :okay:

damn, never knew so many ppl love twinkies LOL...

I've only tried those pecan tarts when I was a kid, and maybe one choco hoho my entire life.

Black friday next week will never be the same @ US Walmart for americans...

Twinkies honestly aren't even that good. Last year I had to buy a bunch for a theatre production, and I ate a bunch of them. Inside the package they are sweating with some kind of oil to appear moist, and you taste them, and they taste all sweet but there's this weird metallic aftertaste.

I would sooner miss the Hostess Cupcakes, but I've had my fill for a lifetime. Show me a real cupcake from Magnolia Bakery in NYC and I wouldn't think twice.

You had no childhood unless you have had a VITASOY

I've never had a Twinkie as well. I guess I'll have to try soon.

fuckin love twinkies,

its like playing the lottery too,

sometimes you get the shitty ones where its like all dough and no filling,

then sometimes you get the ones that shoot in your mouth because their so backed up with filling.

god I want one now,

ya im white

You can pass that fail along to him for me thanks :D

Prolowtone 11-17-2012 01:45 AM

The beauty is, he doesn't have to eat them all at once - they'll last at least a decade.
