I blame every one of you for not eating enough of my favorite (and most delicious) [prop replica](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/uncategorized/mattel-prop-replicas) to keep them in business.

We’ll just make replicas out of foam…they’d probably taste better.

I really Like Twinkies, But I don’t think there going anywhere, as I think some other company will buy the rights as there to iconic to not be in production.

Well if you want them out of bankruptcy the best possible method i guess is to legalize marijuana

Its a shame they have never tried production in the UK, I would really like to try a twinkie.

I did find a site once that would sell them imported, but it was like £30 a box, which would convert to $46.

Not doing that.
