Many years ago someone's caramel Ho-Ho's ended up in a bag of my groceries forgotten by a previous customer at the check out isle, I suspect. I didn't notice until I was home so I put them in the cupboard over the stove and more or less forgot about them. Some time later, when I'd had rather too much to drink, I found them and tried to eat one. It could not be done. They were somehow super-stimulating and totally vile at the same time.
I really think stuff like this is ambiguously between drugs and food, and I feel lucky to have been born without much of a sweet tooth.
I don't think I could get high enough to eat a Twinkie. This isn't meant to be morally superior in any way. I have plenty of other vices, and I think I just lucked out on that one.
Me too, processed food FTW! I recall as a boy, a LONG time ago in the 1950s, paying 5 cents for a 2-pack of Twinkies and loving every bite. I buy a package every couple years just for lulz and I STILL love them!

I grew up on processed food and the first time I had a twinkie I thought it was vile.
But then, the first time I had an Oreo I thought it tasted burnt and nasty; but after a few more, I was craving packets of them.
You're right, somewhere between drugs and food.
