No more Twinkies, Ho-Ho's, or Fruit Pies. I'm crying, and I have diabetes.

Aren't Twinkies just a molecule or two away from being a model car?

Relax Mikey, another bakery will buy the names and recipes.

Twinkies are likely one of my favorite all-time snack foods. They aren't going anywhere. Someone will buy up that product, among other Hostess items too.

I think I once heard they would survive a nuclear holocaust.

And ND & Sunset, it won't be the same without the Hostess Twinkie guy on the box. And what about Ding Dongs? Where are we gonna' get those? (I just tossed that in there so some of you pervy types can take a swipe at me, let's see who's first.)

Get Ted Danson to do it.

BTW, Woody went to Hanover College, the town he used to talk about that he was from in Cheers. It was actually true. The college and town are about 10 miles from where I'm sitting. Which means, nothing, but I like to share.

Well, the Mexican company Bimbo, is looking to swallow up the Hostess brands.

18k+ people out of jobs due to Hostess closing.


Betting they wish their problem was finding a replacement snack food...

So you're telling me the company that might swallow up the company that makes Ding Dongs is called Bimbo?

Okay thanks for teeing this up.

No Twinkies = bad
1800 more unemployed = God Awful

Twinkies ending...it's almost December 2012......

[Clark W Griswold]

NOOOOO!

I am still not quite over the loss of Pudding Pops and now this!




Seriously that stinks as there are already too many people out of work. I hope someone at least continues to make them here. I hope they don't buy them out and then move those jobs to Mexico.

18,300. Two of which I personally know. One is a 45-50 year old man (my friend's dad) and he got no severance,...his pension is gone.....everything....

That's just lame.

Also,...why is no one else fretting over the Hostess Cupcakes? In my opinion, it was the best product they made.
