Twinkies aren't really an American "food". I don't think we really have our own food as far as I'm aware...unless it's maize and buffalo. Apple pie maybe? We tend to borrow from everywhere else, since most of what people think of as staples in the American diet is borrowed from Italy, China, and Mexico.
I think Twinkies are just some strange science experiment in flavored preservatives.
That's what Australian food is like ... lots of Italian, a little chinese and thai, a little middle eastern ... but from my limited experience I found American food to have a lot more oil and preservatives - and come in much bigger servings. I like the peanut-butter and chocolate combination though ... we don't have a lot of that here.
It really does - another one of those disgusting ploys I think, selling food as a product for proceeds instead of for nutrition and health. I tend to use whole foods as often as possible and stick away from prepackaged things (except for once in a while). Peanut butter a chocolate IS yummy! I tried cutting back on sugar though, and started buying bulk peanut butter, which is where you grind your own and then they weigh it and sell it by volume, it contains only peanuts, and so now most peanut butter tastes icky to me - way too sweet.
