If the Twinkies are anything like the cupcakes they'll probably be fine for quite a while.

I had a pack of cupcakes one day while sorting cards. Ate one, got busy, got pulled away for other stuff, forgot the cupcake.
Next time I could get back to the sorting was about three weeks later. The cupcake still seemed fine. Figured I'd leave it and see, expecting mold to start soon after. Checked it occasionally........Three YEARS later when we were moving the bookcase it was on to get a room ready for my first daughter, I finally threw It away. It was still soft, still smelled fresh, and the only thing that seemed to have happened was that a bit of the frosting had fallen off.
(Yes, sometimes I do crazy experiments. Someone has to do them. )
