They already made Sara Lee and Mrs. Bairds into BMBO, now Hostess too? Those pimps!! They’ll probably go after Little Debbie some day!

The US has artificially high sugar prices, government barrier. I don’t think they use corn syrup in baked goods.
I think you should be asking, how do we continue to be a superpower, instead. Leave the blackboard-theory stuff to the eggheads.
And The Jokes Just Write Themselves...
How long will this thread go on without a Sandra Fluke/Bimbo reference? I give it less than 5 more posts.
In other words, this was all a big kabuki play to allow the owners to move the company to Mexico (by letting the brands get bought). American workers lose jobs and we get to blame them for their greed. Americans start getting even lower quality Twinkies. And a small group of people get to walk away with a huge bag of cash.
So then we can expect some Bimbo eruptions on our grocery store shelves.
Now I know what its all about. Never heard of Bimbo cakes.
I’m hearin’ that great suckin’ sound a certain presidential candidate (who I didn’t like) predicted...
Well, let’s hope Mexican snack cake makers are better than their friends in the candy business:

No thanks to Mexican treats. Way to dry
I wouldn’t purchase a twinkie after this no matter who makes them. The same way I will NEVER own GM product the rest of my life.
Bimbo just opened up a new facility in Topeka, so its not all made south of the border.
Where do folks in Mexico get all that money?
Bimbo makes a junk food delicacy that I adore: Bimbunuelos. They are crispy and sugary and have no nutritional value whatsoever.
Could you just see the following Bimbos, Twinkies, Ho-Hos, Ding Dongs and Snowballs. talk about something really sad about he state of morals in the US. Mexico owns the bakeries of the world, the Chinese will produce the Jaguars and Land Rovers by a knock off company called Chery. what is next Fords will be produced in a city called Green Bay )french for Bay of stinking water)?
Please how surreal is this world to become.
Had our Goodbye to Hostess party here today. With grandkids, we nearly polished off four boxes. They’ll be happy to learn that now we can maybe have a “their back” celebration!

Revenge of the Mediterranean Man
Hes on the march in Europe and North America.
By Michael Knox Beran
Across the ocean in North America, Latino refugees from broken Mediterranean-style economies in Latin America are pushing politicians in the United States to redistribute more of North Americas wealth. In California, the Latino diaspora was instrumental in securing higher taxes on the gringo rich; President Obama himself has called on Americans to cast ballots for revenge against the prosperous.
