A twinkie is cream-filled sponge cake sold everywhere, but most bought eaten by boomer and Gen X as kids, or as roadtrip garbage.
Toaster Strudel is another processed American special, but it's better. A frozen flaky pocket pastry with a jam of some sort inside, suitable to be "cooked" in a toaster. Unlike "pop tarts" which are more biscuit-like and shelf-stable, you really need the toaster for a toaster strudel, but your efforts will be (modestly) rewarded.
Twinkies are like a marshmallow stuffed into a vageuly sticky sweet kitchen sponge. They're really only good when youre starving and it's the only thing that looks safe in a nowhere gas station mart, OR deep fried at a county fair...

Toaster strudel obviously.

Absolutely. Maybe the "shitpost" part of this is suggesting that it's in any way a tough choice.

You'd need to deep fry that twinkie for it to even be close.

Can an American please explain what these are like, and why you would have them, over like doughnuts, pastries or other baked goods?

Fuck that. Go back to its origins:
Bavarian APFELSTRUDEL
but without raisins
