Okay everybody!  Forget the facts of nutrition.  Twinkies are back.  Try as we did...like the Age of Prohibition--we could not get the Twinkie out of our national diet.  We are just that conditioned!  Remember when they took away Coke and gave us New Coke?  What a fiasco!  Yes, we were that conditioned--so that Coke Classic came back and New Coke just vanished off the shelves!   And by the way....I am one of the worst offenders.  That's why I know how to write about it.  What's that you say?  I am missing the bigger issue?  Oh yeah, that one.  Do you really and truly think that big business cultivates this conditioned taste for profit?  Somebody has made that case for cigarettes and young people--but it is too late now.  Try getting that addiction out of our diets even as we watch relatives cough up their guts from emphysema.  What chance do you think the Bread that lasts for eternal lives has against the Twinkie?  We'll see at the end of time.
