I had a Latin teacher in high school who used to sacrifice Twinkies at the beginning of class...

I like that. It seems to be something that good Latin teachers do--a friend (Someone from college? Or elsewhere?) had a story about Peeps being sacrificed in her Latin class, with a similar result.

Of course, now that I'm posting this I've a sneaking suspicion that I'm going to discover that I've heard this story of yours before, and conflated it with someone else's story of a Peep sacrifice. Just because that's how my luck always goes.
