IDAHO -- Some parents in Idaho are angry over quotes that were published in a middle school yearbook.



The school yearbook staff asked students to respond to the question "When I hear the word Twinkie, I think of..."



The question was meant to be light-hearted, but parents say half the answers were harsh comments about fat people.



Families and school officials say the quotes should have never been published.
