Another collection of union workers buys their union line:

"They'll never close; they're just bluffing".

The Ding Dongs learned nothing from PATCO.

I assume they will sell the brand names and recipes along with the other things they are selling.

In fact, they could sell it all - lock,stock,and barrel - to a single new owner, who could then as XYZ Corp sell Hostess Twinkies, HoHo’s, etc.

And they could have a non-union shop.

It’s such a popular, well-liked brand that that’s what I expect to happen.

Kawasaki Rail in NY did this a few years ago. The union came in and forced workers to sign a petition to form a union.

The Japanese management had a meeting and warned the workers not to go thru with it because they had good wages and bennies. A few dummies pushed the issue and the management closed the plant for two weeks.

They had the petition and started calling back the workers whose names were not on it. Word got around to the dummies and they relented.

Family member worked there.

Closer to the Eastern Airlines scenario.

Are you old enough to remember Eastern Airlines?
