Twinkies

[PvK]

They have an otherworldly quality to them. Soft and spongy, very light, very sweet and decidedly artificial, filled with white whipping-cream-like filling. They might go unnoticed in a bakery, but they are packaged in pairs in little transparent plastic bags and left on store shelves where they might linger for a very long time, showing less sign of age than their plastic container.
