Twinkies: An American Staple?

Our very young AD for our film Shadow of the Missing had never been to America and never had a Twinkie. Everyone knows if there is an apocalypse, people will survive on Twinkie's. Apparently they stay "fresh" for like 50 years.  Obviously, I have not been privy to try a 50 year old Twinkie, but its just common knowledge! 
So here is Sam teaching Ceri and Dean about Twinkie's. Good ole' American goodness! Quite disappointed by the results... and let me just add this is at 1am the night before we filmed! Bad boiz.
