Has anyone ever had a deep fried Twinkie!? My dad told me they were amazing! It sounds really toxic! Lol!

no, i've not had those. i used to like Twinkies, but now i don't so the idea of trying to fry one doesn't appeal to me in the slightest. i've not looked up how they do it. i have enough troubles already i don't need to go looking for even more... :)

@Marie2020 ,

Twinkies are nothing little vanilla flavored cakes with a nothing cream filling. They can be entirely stuffed in a mouth and will melt in a minute.

I never cared for them.

i liked them when they had some vanilla and slight lemon flavor, but the last ones i tried went the same direction as most candies and Little Debbie snack cakes. that is, they went to nothing but sweet and almost no other flavor. the only thing i've had from them over the years that i liked were the oatmeal creme pies and those i have to freeze so it takes me a bit longer to eat them, but in the end i've not had any of those in years either. too many other goodies around here for me to get into.

All of this reminds me of a food mystery from my past.

There used to be a place near me called Magic Wok that had an appetizer called a roast pork roll. It was basically a soupy mix of diced roast pork and sauce wrapped in bean curd skin (this so far is a pretty standard dim sum item called a roast pork crepe*,) battered and deep fried.

I loved them, but, for the life of me, I never worked out how they could batter and fry them without the filling leaking out (the bean curd skin was in a cylinder; so it was open on both ends.)

My two best guesses was that they either jelled the filling or froze it to make it solid.
