It's been a stressful couple of days with more tumult in the future.

Chances are, you're eating your feelings. And Twinkie ice cream is now here to make that endeavor even more nostalgic.

The Impulsive Buy snapped a photo of limited edition Twinkies and Sno Ball ice cream Jan. 23. Uproxx reports the cold stuff will be sold for a limited time from February through May 2017 at Dollar General and other convenience stores.

Uproxx also says the famous chocolate white squiggle cupcake will be featured in ice cream form.

However, since the ice cream is already apparently out there in the wild, go forth with a spoon and conquer.

Chances are, it's your best shot at having an uplifting day.
