Twinkies by mail from around the world. Can you help?

Once we visited my favorite mother-in-law. Before we left I purchased a package of Twinkies which I hid in her pantry. (omigod! I nearly left out the 't' in pantry!)

So that same package of Twinkies has made the rounds back and forth for various occasions.

Even though the original package of Twinkies was abandoned here, it's still under her control (the rules of the game doncha know). But I've heard that she's planning something...

So

Can I have some volunteers to anonamously mail Twinkies from the far reaches of the world?

On the first day of Christmas my son-in-law gave to me, a Twinkie!
On the second day of Christmas my son-in-law gave to me, a Twinkie!
On the third day of Christmas my son-in-law gave to me, a Twinkie!

Ewww....no way. As a chef, I have to be responsible. If there is a threat of nuclear war in the near future, I shall send you some, as like cockroaches, they are likely to survive.

I can send her a frozen, chocolate-covered Twinkie on a stick.

The King of Fried Twinkies? I don't know how a fried (or frozen) Twinkie would fare in the mails.

But... I'm looking for Oz, England, Tokyo (Monger? You out there?) Germany postmarks... but all over the USA would work just as well...

quinn, tell us more about the King!

He hasnt told you yet?!

My gosh!

Actually they are very good, I must say. This is from someone who probably wouldnt eat a twinkie in its true form.

They are frozen overnight, deep fried in a turkey frier, and then drizzled with chocolate and something else...dang I forget.

I think Twinkies are probably a red, white and blue perversion. What about asking for International Thugs to volunteer:

"Your Twinkie or your life!

I could help, but first you have to send a twinky to the Philippines at my address. If interested send me a private message and I could give you my address.

Stop denying it, Roger, NM is a foreign country that somehow has continued to exist, somewhat, within our borders. Laughing

Don't know if we have them here - but I could pick one up in Ohio, smuggle it back to Canada and then mail it to you!

anyone who smuggles MacIntosh bars deserves to have a Twinkie in the mail.

And you too Ricardo! Thanks!

(I need to enlist that smeggin wabbit, but last I saw of her she was threatening to rip my flippers off and make them into soup.)

No, beth. We are right here. Have been all day.

You are everywhere.

Besides, we only just had this idea, and we need all the help we can get.

-+-+-+-+-+-+-

What Mrs. SealPoet was talking about on the Taunton forum was that we are making a Twinkie calender. We'll take ideas on that one too... and e-mail MS Publisher files to those whos contribs get used...

Happy to send her one from Downunder. I'll do a little checking to locate some in Sydney first.

I seriously doubt that my co-op has twinkies, in fact I know they are absent but I might be able to find some somewhere, perhaps the immense Winco. Will check around, and in the mean time, pm me with wheres and whens.
