Owen stared at Jack. “I dare you to eat it.”

“You dare him? What are you, twelve? Gwen, come here and talk some sense into these two!”

“Leave her out of this,” Owen hissed, watching Jack poke at what was in front of him. “This is between me and Jack. He’s the one who swore he’d eat anything.”

“But Owen, it came through the rift!”

“I scanned it! It’s clean.”

“But...” Tosh’s protests were drowned out by a wrapper crinkling.

After a moment’s chewing Jack smiled. “Prawn cocktail flavored rift Quavers. Yummmm”

“If they’re so good you should swallow.”

“No.”

twinkies are awesome, in a 'ooh so good and so preservative filled" sort of way. I love them, but try to stay clear, they are too tempting.

Rumors are that they have an infinite shelf life. That's why I was going to use them in the story

They do look a bit evil in a delicious sort of way. A bit like doughnuts?

Ooh, if they have an infinite shelf life maybe I can order some over...

doughnuts are better. But twinkies will do in a pinch.

The Shelf Life of a Vintage Twinkie - science teacher kept a Twinkie for 30 years! Eww. (Snopes has a much more disappointing answer - but 25 days is still long enough to float around and come through the Rift!)

I've heard the 30 year thing before. Dang, Snopes, destroying all our illusions....
