Their oatmeal cookies are a vice of mine, now I'm gonna have to turn to drugs....... bummer...

 

[Raddogz]

A run to my local Safeway yielded an empty shelf of my beloved pink and white circus frosted animal cookies <sigh>

 

[tuberider]

I'll look on the coast here for you Eileen, I'm gonna pickup some oatmeals when I go into town, I'll buy them all for you if I see some in all of their white and pinky goodness ;D

Man I loved the animal circus cookies. I was addicted to them as a kid and can remember many nights of cookie binges.

 

[Gomer]

NOOOOOOOOOOOO@@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Elite]

Don't know anything about them but it's sad to see people losing their job.

I'm wondering when it will be my turn..

 

[Tumbleweed]

Crisis averted. 3 Bags of Frosted Animal Cookies now in my possession.

 

[LordHelmet]

[Raddogz]

See...ha ha I'm not the only one that loved those pink and white little addictive sweet mmm goodness

 

[LordHelmet]

are you giving your bags to the raffle on saturday if i cant find any.

 

[Mr. Ugly]

OMGZ!!!! Don't eat those cookies! They'll be RARE through the end of the year, and next year they'll be X-TREME

Last time I ate those pink and white ones, I was probably 8 years old. Those were awesome cookies.

The oatmeal ones were my ultimate favorites though. I used to soak them in milk. Back when I used to (could) drink milk

Dang.... I guess I'd better buy some tonight, for old times sake

Boy has someone been misinformed.


Is it sad for me to say I have never heard of these things?

Now you want potential sad news, what are we gonna do if these stop being made?

[/quote]Don't they have 40 years of Twinkies saved up in a warehouse somewhere?

 

[seminolecpa]

Probably. Not sure of the shelf life but if it is anything like the shelf life of those "fruit" pies, things should be good for a while.


mmmmm deep fried twinkies.
