Ancient Twinkies ... when found will they still be in their freshness date?

If they find ancient Wheaties, which Jenner will be on the box?

""A Late Bronze Age 'odd' deposit from central European site Stillfried (Austria) yielded dough rings comparable to Italian tarallini..."

Right next to the first fruitcake. And the original Green Bean Casserole.

I’m not familiar with tarallini.

Neither am I. And I'm (half) Italian. Probably very good, though, as most Italian food and desserts are.

Mom might know em.

I just DONT RECALL ever seeing them.

I don’t like to lie about what I know or don’t know regarding all things Italy/Sicily :)

But there’s a LOT of regions with a LOT of foods.

But that it originated in SOUTHERN Italy and I don’t know it is a bit embarrassing :)

Of course. Their expiration date is eons past the heat death of the universe.
