If you used to read comic books back when they were still cheaply made and cheaply bought (read: the '80s or earlier), then you probably remember seeing those old Hostess full-page ads, in which it was made clear to the reader that all the world's ills could be cured with little more than a couple bags of Twinkies. Now... while I'm never one to dismiss an insane idea outright (who knows what peace may be wrought if it suddenly began to rain snack cakes in Darfur), I am one to take merciless pot-shots at them.

I was going to link scans of some of those infamous adverts here, but GIS turned up a great and wonderful thing over at Branded In The '80s - a couple large galleries of the damned things, complete with highly amusing commentary; so if this comic whets your appetite for justice-via-junkfood, I recommend you sidle on over there for a look at the inspiration.
