An interesting thing happened to The Zone recently where a reader sent in a question to our email inbox. We, the Zone Staff, felt it deserved a response. Not only did the question deserve a response we felt that the response would be best answered in a post. Here is the question that we received with our response.
Dear BrainTwinkey,
I have been reading your posts for some time and I keep asking myself the same question over and over again: Do you really like Twinkies? You have mentioned Twinkies several times and even written a poem about them. If you do really like Twinkies where do you rank them with other snack food? Thanks, Julie B - San Antonio
Dear Julie,
It's funny that you ask this question as you are not the first one to ask (you are the second). Although I have to wonder if you have ever actually had a Twinkie before? THEY'RE DELICIOUS! Soft, golden, sweet spongy cake on the outside, and wonderfully sweet cream filling. It's the perfect combination. Throw a slice of Vermont Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese into the mix and heaven awaits!
Sure, there are other things you can snack on that are healthier, and please, have a healthy snack from time to time. But when you are having one of those days where nothing seems to please you, head for that gas station quick mart, dust off the oldest Twinkie on the shelf and dive into freedom!

I just drooled on my keyboard.
To answer the second part of the question, the only items in the vending machines here at The Zone Headquarters are Twinkies; they are the favorite.
Thanks for the email!
