Walmart is Now Selling Hostess Deep-Fried Twinkies
Images via Hostess/WalmartLast year, Paste tried everything deep-fried at a fair, and we can confirm that deep-fried Twinkies are better than the regular ones, “taking off the chemical edge and slightly stale texture.”
Luckily, you don’t need a deep fryer or tickets to a nearby county fair to try the deep-fried treat because deep-fried Twinkies will be sold in the freezer aisle at Walmart starting today, reports ABC News.
The frozen treat comes in either “original golden” (vanilla) or chocolate for a $4.76 box of seven. The deep-fried original golden version has 9 grams of fat and 220 calories, almost doubling to the regular version with four grams of fat and 130 calories. To eat the deep-fried Twinkie, you just need to pop it in the oven or fry it because they’ve already been battered and partially fried before freezing.
