both will be around with the cock-a-roaches after a nuclear fallout
So I just ate one of my guilty pleasures- a pepperoni pizza Hot Pocket. I say "guilty" pleasure because I've been cutting back on the amount of processed foods from my diet. Hot Pockets, I'm pretty sure, are up there with Twinkies as far as chemical preservatives and processed ingredients. Love me some Twinkies, too, but I haven't had one for sooooo long solely based on the notion that they are the world's most notorious processed food. I've heard they have a shelf life of a decade or more. Unofficial shelf life said to be only 25 days - http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A46062-2005Apr12.html
but still, that's a long time.
So-why do I think it's acceptable to eat Hot Pockets but not Twinkies given that Hot Pockets prolly aren't any better for us? And which way do I go from here? Do I break the "No Twinkie"seal and just start eating Twinkies with reckless abandon? Or do I reinforce the seal with a "No Hot Pockets, either" seal? Think I need to go mull this over with a giant quad shot latte and some sugar free fruit-flavored chewing gum.

Probably because we think of Hot Pockets as real food and Twinkees as junk food(did I spell Twinkees right,I'd better eat one to be sure).
