The Twinkie abides. And will survive.
I 'member a few years back a twinkie website that stood for (T)ests (W)ith (I)nert (N)oxious (K)akes (I)n (E)xtreme (S)ituations. Where they put twinkies through a grueling series of tests, painstakingly recording the data.
For example they observed the effect on twinkies after being run over by a steamroller, dropped from a high building, nuked for half an hour, set on fire, etc. Very informative site ...
