Remember it wasn't that long ago when Twinkies disappeared off the shelves and people went into total panic mode, even selling boxes on Ebay for crazy amounts?

The most amazing part was that people were actually buying them for those crazy amounts!

Well if you're worried they will disappear again, we've found another option for you to still have your Twinkies.

There is a product for sale on Amazon called the Smart Planet Hostess Twinkies Maker. It is similar in looks to a waffle iron, but instead of a waffle pattern,  it has six narrow, oval shaped holes...or you guessed it, in the shape of a Twinkie.

The price is only $19, so that's not bad if Twinkies are your downfall. The thing is the reviews are split. It's received a decent amount of five star ratings but also quite a few with one star, and of course in between.

One three star review says, "The directions are very contradictory,  the pastry bag that comes with it is thin and smells funny...all in all, it's an okay little machine."

I say if you like to make homemade treats and you love Twinkies, buy it! It's only $19. I could see my daughter having fun with this. But then again you can pay for a box and someone else did all the work and you don't have another gadget taking up space in your kitchen.
