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. 
- PBS Food Senior Editor Matt Schoch


You won't call, won't write;
You challenge my heart's shelf life -
love won't decompose.
- PBS Food Web Producer Ashley Carufel
