@Apoxia, the Safeways and Andronicos spattered around Berkeley both carry Twinkies, I think, but Safeway is the best bet, since I have purchased them there before. Honestly, I'm surprised that pictured coffee has as few sugar cubes in it as it does....
having looked at all the pages, i was left with one conclusion, which of course has been known for years. sugar is a staple of food, and there is no avoiding it, just ways to moderate it by awareness. i quit eating poptarts, and drinking mountain dew years ago, and i don't miss it at all. i do like a cherry cola Sprecher's from time to time. and if i drink any full tilt soda, i go down to the mexican market, because mexican bottlers still use real sugar in the soda, making it taste like what you remember when...
@ #11 Deckard68: Thanks for your thoughtful post! I'd only add, it seems like different types of food packaging have gotten crystallized at different eras. A lot of the convenience food / junk food items have packaging from the 70s because that's when that market expanded and the products were developed. However, if you walk down the baking aisle of your supermarket, you will feel like it's the 1950s, 40s, or even earlier. Packaging for major brands of flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, etc hasn't changed in a looong time....
I don't understand why it says "That's more sugar than a whole pint of ice cream!" next to the 21 oz McD's shake. Last time I checked 21 ounces is more than a pint......
