Not gonna lie, it' had been a minute since i'd had the concoction that is rumored to be able to out live a human, but was recently re-introduced to a kicked up version courtesy of a good friend of mine!
Instead of the old standby, he took it to the next level!! made it the base for a Strawberry Shortcake! Yes, that's right, a Twinkie Strawberry Shortcake. Please wipe the drool from your lips lol.
But as i was sitting thinking about the life span of a Twinkie, which by the way is now said to only be 25 days, my curiosity got the better of me and i decided to look up all the ingredients! Luckily for me... someone has already done the leg work! *wink*
So here are the 37 ingredients that make up this beloved, iconic, dessert;
Enriched Bleached Wheat Flour [Flour, Reduced Iron, B Vitamins (Niacin, Thiamine Mononitrate (B1), Riboflavin (B2), Folic Acid)],
Corn Syrup, Sugar,
High Fructose Corn Syrup,
Water,
Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable and/or Animal Shortening (Soybean, Cottonseed and/or Canola Oil, Beef Fat),
Whole Eggs,

Modified Corn Starch,
Glucose,
Leavenings (Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Baking Soda, Monocalcium Phosphate),
Sweet Dairy Whey,
Soy Protein Isolate,
Calcium and Sodium Caseinate,
Salt,
Mono and Diglycerides,

Soy Lecithin,
Soy Flour,
