Ode to a Twinkie: Pay Tribute With a Haiku

Whether you like them, love them, or loathe them, Twinkies are one of the most identifiable food brands in history. This week's news that Hostess will be filing for a second bankruptcy, has put their future in jeopardy. So how better to pay homage to the Twinkie than with a haiku? 

Lunch. Twinkies abound.

But never in my lunchbox.

Thanks mom. Jealousy.

You won't call, won't write;

You challenge my heart's shelf life -

love won't decompose.

- PBS Food Web Producer Ashley Carufel
