Oh. My.

This afternoon, one of my Supply Corps Officers walked into my cabin bearing a strange plate...

That is probably what you think it is.  Specifically - a plate of fried twinkies...

and fried Oreos...

The Twinkies taste mostly like donuts, meaning, yummy but not something I wanted more than a small piece to eat.  The Oreos on the other hand...well, she brought them to me warm, so it tasted like a melty Oreo.  It was really, really good.  Thankfully, I had enough will power to send them out for others to taste - because that plate you see had two Twinkies, four Oreos and a bowl of fruit topping and it was all for me.  Portion control isn't exactly a strong suit for military cooks...

Yum! Crazy but delicious... every once in awhile. What a fun holiday treat. Thanks for the pictures. It's really wonderful to see your adventures at sea.

Oreos and Twinkies! What a special smile to remember. I am in Georgia--isn't everything fried here? Here's to a deep fried holiday! Hope the next few days are happy ones for your and yours.

I have never seen a deep fried Twinkie or Oreo, much less tasted one. I hope you enjoyed!
