Twinkie

The dark yellow, minion shaped, (rectangular shape with rounded edges was tantalizing me through the clear Hostess wrapper.

The wrapper crinkled as I pulled the edge of it open.

As a grabbed the twinkie cream from the bottom stuck to my thumb, so I licked it off. My forefinger made an imprint on the soft moist sponge-like cake. It’s squishy and sticky.

The yellow sponge cake perfectly complimented the smooth thick white cream that was in the middle.

Whenever I eat a twinkie, I think of how my Mom never bought them for me and how upset that still makes me. The first time I had a twinkie was when I was visiting my Mom and twin brothers in an Omaha Hospital. We were in the hospital cafeteria and my Mom, even though she would never buy them, encouraged me to try one.

Twinkie’s are a rare treat for me, so I’m excited whenever I get one.

Since the cream is sweet and rich, I couldn’t eat more than one at a time.

It took me five regular size bites to eat it in.

I have an after taste and parts of cake stuck in my teeth.
