Unions sometimes do not understand how a business works. If a business is not meeting production, don't ask for a raise. Now the TSA is unionizing or have they already? TSA personels won't give a F**k if they treat you like S**t.

They will be back. The private equity company owner probably already has their deals struck for selling the assets (i.e., trademarks and recipes) of the strongest of the Hostess products. Don't be surprised if they are with some of big conglomerate shortly. Sara Lee Twinkees anyone?

Sort of like the convict attitude, better to get ass raped than have no sex! Screw Hostess and the poison they make

as long as the stuff tastes the same...

I've kind of moved on to Entenmans

What a shame. I think Twinkies have been around for as long as I've been alive. In fact, Moses and I used to share a package as we sojourned in the desert.

A world with no Twinkies is a world that I don't want to live in.

+1.
===========================

I haven't had a Twinkie in years, but as soon as I heard the news, I started jonesing for one. The good thing is: when you stock-up, they're good indefinitely.

Maybe Hostess would be in better shape if the products didn't have a 30 year half life?

Did Drake's go out of business too?

[andrema]

Does this mean that Terry has to rename his patented "Twinkie" move?

Exactly.

You and me both. I might have to go out on a hunt for a box to celebrate the end of an era.

Don't you Southern boys deep fry these things? I used to work down in Tennessee and you crazy bastards would deep fry anything.

The State Fair will never be the same again.....

Never liked Twinkies, find them too sweet.
