The Twinkie apocalypse may very well be approaching. And despite the fact that Hostess, Inc., makers of Twinkies, has announced plans to liquidate due to a standoff with employees, there are still cream-filled sponge cakes to be had across this great nation. And unlike the crazed snack cake addicts emptying grocery store shelves, you can get your Twinkie fix in deep-fried style. Below, a whopping 18 restaurants across America that serve deep-fried Twinkies battered, pan-fried, with ice cream, chocolate, and/or berries. Although there's still a slight chance Hostess will rally and/or sell the Twinkie brand, this may be your last shot. To the map:
