Twinkie lovers can go bananas
Twinkies, the sweet treat known for its creamy vanilla center is returning to its roots with banana-creme filling — the flavor that first made the snack a hit more than 70 years ago. Hostess began selling the banana-creme snack cakes last week at stores nationwide. From 1930, when the Twinkie was first invented, to the 1940s, Twinkies were filled solely with banana creme. But a banana shortage during the war forced Hostess bakers to replace it with the vanilla flavor.
