Dinky the Duckling: Hey, sir, when I was with mom, she fed me three times a day, planned out all my meals, made sure I got all the different food groups... How are we gonna handle that? Guard Duck: Here's a twinkie. Make it last. Dinky the Duckling: This is way more fun. Guard Duck: Need a cold one to wash it down?

From the website what to feed ducks:“Feeding ducks bread, chips, crackers, popcorn and similar bread-type products is bad because the food has little nutritional value and can harm ducklings’ growth, pollute waterways and attract rodents.”Sounds like beer is ok.

@Varnes: Sugar-free Twinkies! How dare you speak of such sacrilege! I am diabetic and can’t now dare to even smell Twinkies; yet I cringe at the thought of that invulnerable food being reduced to a sugar free shell of its former toxic sugar glory!

Many points…1. New calorie free sugar called Sucralous: Chlorinated Sugar is what it is… Chlorine + Sugar? Dangers yet to be discovered.2. “We-Are-Fa-mily, all my little duckies an’ me…”3. I actually favored the turkey and dressing MRE’s over the frankfurter pack.4. I was an SDA through my 20’s, early 30’s… the diet did clean up the body, but it was also expensive, was told to nit-pick ingredients (and other cultural impurities), and talk about denying oneself of other pleasures… Now, that’s what I call being in bondage of a following.
And speaking of following…Surpised not to see the following Pun:5. Good to see that Pearls has their… DUCKS IN A ROW!!!

Assuming you have the right enzymes. Lactose is a common problem but there are people who lack the ability to break down fructose, sucrose and even dextrose.
