They changed the filling during WWII. The original filling was a banana cream. They switched over to a filling more like cool whip because of food rationing and they sent the Banana supplies to soldiers

[@kassidyrobinson4259]

What where did you hear this 😑

[@stinkyrag1509]

No because almost all bananas were killed by a virus and they couldn’t use bananas cause they costed way too much

[@diane9247]

I remember having the banana ones a few times in the 70s. They were delicious! I wonder if that was one of those "limited edition" things. I haven't seen them since. BTW, Little Debbie Banana Twins aren't nearly as good as the Banana Twinkies were.

I knew a jeweler who worked at a store in a historical building in Portland. When they renovated an area in the late 90s, they found a package of Twinkies in a wall with a 5 cent price tag. It looked completely edible.

[@kellypg]

Mortal Engines played on this. It's set hundreds of years in the future. They show someone eating an "inkie" and state that the food of the old ones doesn't go bad.

"Found a package of Twinkies in a wall." 🤣 People usually hide drugs behind walls, these people take their Twinkies seriously.

[@aszerencs]

that's scary. The same way as the 'last cheeseburger of Iceland' is...if something is edible after this long, it's not even food.

[@bossyspaghetti]

@@zaodedong9935 ikr? It was a semi-common practice for carpenters to put a board with their name and the date written on it within a wall they were working on, or a newspaper, as a sort of time capsule... I think that it may have been a funny play on that.

[@sunspot42]

Yes, was going to suggest the same - follow Claire's recipe but use the Twinkie maker.

[@dramadork787]

teeny tiny suggestion: try filling the maker molds less to give the cake room to rise and be more airy. this'll give room inside them too for injected filling.

[@hottiemchot2998]

Rebbidy that’s a good tip. I was thinking maybe a more angel food cake-style cake recipe might be softer and airier too.

[@CallieMasters5000]

I was thinking she was overfilling.

[@annachristine3775]

You definitely make a good point. To add to that, I don’t think the recipe provided would ever provide an light and airy cake. It’s a somewhat basic dense white cake batter. She would have to use a recipe that relies on a meringue base like a chiffon cake and I would go with oil rather than butter.

[@celestiallyme777]

Also after creaming the sugar and butter I'd ditch the hand blender to avoid over mixing. Angel food cake hates to be overmixed lol.

Emmy I was always told banana was the original flavor though it was changed to being vanilla instead later on. I think it was changed from banana (during the war when soldiers could get them) to vanilla for a more appealing mass production. Just what I have always been told. Love your videos!

I feel like that would be useful to make little cornbread loaves as a side dish for dinner, not a lot of waste and you could only make as many as you needed!

[@Angie_978]

I use my sandwich maker (with 4 triangle sections) for cornbread, muffins, biscuits, mini banana bread bites, etc. It's simple enough that a kid can run it, and cooks quickly enough that it's usually about the same amount of time as it would take to do a whole batch in the big oven. After watching this though, I'm going to try corndogs (cornbread batter and a sliced hotdog) and pigs-in-a-blanket (waffle batter with breakfast sausage).

I think she also overcooked it which was why she was comparing the texture to the brownie edge. When she poked the center with the toothpick it came out clean but she still thought it needed a couple more minutes to cook. When the toothpick comes out clean the first time it should be done, it’s even fine if there’s a little bit of wet crumb on the toothpick.

Maybe it was my kid tastebuds not noticing that they were extremely sweet, but there has to be a difference since they close/discontinued and reopened.

Savers is where I get most of my cloths and a lot of gadgets. I found a canister ice cream maker in great condition. And a very nice mandolin slicer and a grater/slicer attachment for my stand mixer, both of which looked new.

[@80sOzzy]

Same here 😊 My depression era grandparents would go to the Hostess factory and get discount goodies once a month. My fav were the blueberry pies, which I can't get anymore. Tasty cake and entemenns don't count.

[@gullreefclub]

80sOzzy There was a Hostess store about 2 miles from where I grew up and as a kid my friends and I would bike to the store and pool our money and get boxes of Twinkie’s, cupcakes, pies etc at major discounts when we bought the past sell by date goodies.

ohh so many little debbie cakes you can try to make! i love the swiss cake rolls. 😉

[@Livlocalmartian]

Had an awesome 5th grade teacher who LOVED Swiss cake rolls. She loved them so much she promised the class a party if we all were able to get a 85% or above on a test once. We called it a Swiss party. We ate Swiss Cake Rolls, drank Swiss Miss hot chocolate, had Swiss cheese sandwiches, and watched the movie Swiss Family Robinson. Ahhh, she was a crazy teacher, but she was my favorite and I’ll never forget her. I find myself talking about her often, but who wouldn’t be talking about a lady who flaunted her camel poop earrings. I hope my son gets a teacher half as cool as her. Or hopefully even her as a teacher if she isn’t retired by then

[@arwenthegreat]

@@Livlocalmartian what a wonderful teacher! I remember my 5th grade teacher promising us a pizza party if we did good on our math test towards the end of the year. So much pizza was ate the day we all passed!

I came to this video after regrettably viewing some political ones that had me in a bad mood. Instantly, I was mesmerized by your presentation. Your soft, but expressive voice had a very calming effect on me. The subject was funny and interesting, and you are quite charming. Your environment made me feel like I was in your warm, comfortable kitchen. Suddenly, I'm in a much better mood. Liked and subscribed.

I've seen them in vending machines, too. Some grocery stores and convenience stores have the twin packs in the checkout lanes, like with the individual candy bars, but the boxes are on the shelves in the packaged bakery area.

I've had a Twinkie one (1) time in my life and now I'm craving one hardcore. Maybe I'll walk to the gas station

[@bubblegumplastic]

Update us on if you went or not 😁

[@AvenRox]

Actually I did, and the experience was incredibly surreal because it was late at night and it's cold and the lights flickered on the sidewalk leading to the lonesome 7-11 on the corner, the only open shop among destitute buildings that flank the establishment, and all this quietude was eerie until I walked in to purchase the goods. I returned to my cozy home to indulge in the fluffy, creamy, sweet sweet heaven that was my Twinkie. Well, Twinkies plural, I got the double pack. 10/10 would walk again.

The first time I even heard of twinkies was back in 2004 when I was in the States for the first time. A friend in NYC bought me some but I have to be honest, as a person who is not a fan of sweet/sugary stuff, I didn't much care for them. That being said, I really enjoyed this video, I love your energy and honesty and simplicity of presentation :) That is why I have been a subscriber for literally years now. Stay amazing!

In my experience, the twin packs are stored separately from the boxed twinkies. Usually in or near the bakery.

Had you cooled off the cakes before putting in the frosting it wouldn't have been as transparent. It simply melted from the heat.
