Peak Twinkies coming to an end??

It is not over yet.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/1...n_2160455.html

I haven't had any hostess products in so long, next time I'm at the store I'll pick up zingers and cupcakes...

I'm gonna but whatever hostess products I can find and in 5-10 years I'm gonna sell em on eBay for millions and retire.

Through all this, we haven't heard about what the poor deep fried twinkie guy at the State fair is gonna do?

:D

Sell more deep fried Snickers I suppose...

You guys realize that Bimbo is likely going to buy Hostess and this will just be more typical American tomfoolery...

Don't over pay or hoard yet.

Last I heard (when I worked for them in 2003), Bimbo was owned by a company in Mexico. Guess it will be international tomfoolery.

I meant the over-reaction Tomfoolery... Quieres Twinkysitos?

I'm guessing it usually involves NASCAR, Guns, beef jerkey, beer, blowing things up, and football... ya know, generally being awesome- at least that's what I would classify "American tomfoolery" as. [Beer]

I think Delfuego was just looking for an excuse to use "tomfoolery" in a sentence.

As long as they still make Chocodiles I am good!

Dammit. I was hoping to score a ridiculously high-priced box of Twinkies from someone. Even though they were pretty well-stocked at the Conifer Safeway this morning at regular price.

Seriously...I wouldn't be surprised if the Teamsters used some strong-arm tactics against the baker/confectioner's union to get them to go along with the program. Even the Teamsters seemed to understand a pay cut was better than no job...especially once they realized Hostess was dead serious about closing.

I prefer the term "shenanigans" personally. [Beer]

This was the "tomfoolery" I was speaking of... And yes 3 uses of the word for triple word score = what?

I should have used the word "shenanigans" too[Smart]
