as much as it is funny as much as it is sad

I hope Trout washes that hat at least once a year.

Twinkies with frosting? Why didn’t I think of that? :)

Someone left the cake out in the rain (sprinkles).

When you’re a kid you can actually enjoy stuff like that

I hope she got to blow out the candles

You could bake a cake from scratch for less than half what that monstrosity cost.

Might actually taste pretty good……

I dunno, that "cake’ sounded pretty sweet. Even without the sprinkles.

10 Twinkies and whip cream costs more than cake mix and an egg.

Maybe the Dollar Store had a ‘box’ of week-old Twinkies for $1. Grandma is probably great at tracking down the good sales.

Last time I checked, cake mix was still amazingly cheap. Okay, I admit that was 40 years ago, but still…

Okay I just checked. 98¢ to $2. Yup, still cheap.

Actually generic “twinkies”.

RJ from Over The Hedge will take the twinkies if you aren’t interested in them.

If I’d only known their need, they could’ve had what is left of my Halloween sprinkles. Good on oatmeal, maybe? :)

Funny but also so sad. The richest country (sorry Empire) in the world and yet. I guess poverty makes it easier to get people to enlist in the army.

I know people who would eat that.

The great Alton Brown has said that cake mixes have gotten good enough to use, but there is still no excuse for canned frosting. This is one of the few things I disagree with Alyon on.

No cake mix can come remotely close to my from-scratch chocolate cake! (Don’t know about other flavors, because if it’s not chocolate, it isn’t really cake…….)
