Twinkies have been around what seems like forever. They were first produced in River Forest, Il. in 1930.
The original Twinkie had 150 calories. The latest has 135.

If you can just eat one the new Twinkie, it isn’t necessarily a bad choice from a calorie standpoint. Just know that  it is a high-sugar item with 16.5 grams of sugar and 4.5 grams of fat (not to mention the addition of many other ingredients such as preservatives, etc).

Remember that the occasional indulgence isn’t a bad thing.

 

Want to work those calories off?  Try 37 minutes of walking, 15 of jogging, or 21 minutes of cycling.
