When Twinkies are no longer profitable... that fagot kenyan dictator has got to go! I wonder how many Hostess union employees voted for that usurping muslim.

“I think the Hostess demise is an indicator of demographics and companies that fail to keep up.
The snack food eating demo is more hip and more urban. “
Another great idea here on FR! Hostess could make ethic tweaks to their products!!
They could come out with a Hip Hop Ho Ho for example. Or salsa flavored Twinkies (probably not a good idea).
On a serious note however; look what Lays has done to the once mundane potato chip. They have some pretty good flavors available now that were once available just in a higher end chip.

"Hostess changed their formulas a few years back, Ive had both Twinkies and cupcakes and they are no where near as good as they used to be. Its the New Coke but worse." They were made with beef tallow prior to trans fats. THOSE were the best.

Convenience Store Clerk: [Powell with an armload of Twinkies] I thought you guys just ate doughnuts.
Sergeant Al Powell: Heh. They’re for my wife.
Convenience Store Clerk: [sarcastically] Yeah.
Sergeant Al Powell: She’s pregnant.
Convenience Store Clerk: Yeah.
Sergeant Al Powell: Bag it.
Convenience Store Clerk: Big time.

It’s because they’re shipping them from a further distance now.
They have shut down MANY of their bakeries and turned them into trucking distribution points.

What? Hostess/Twinkies is bankrupt? Judging by the girth of the average American, I would think Twinkies & Ding Dongs were selling at a record pace!

No Hostess was dead in TN 20 years ago before anyone was complaining about trans fats. And they are currently still using transfats.
Post 85 is more likely, that the switch to transfats killed the product. Not a switch away from them.

To my knowledge I have never eaten a Twinkie, a Ho ho or a Ding Dong
I was out this morning and bought a pack of Twinkies and of Dingdongs.
It would be a pity for them to disappear and I did not know what they were

I was out this morning and bought a pack of Twinkies and of Dingdongs. Ah, the breakfast of champions. Consider washing them down with Mountain Dew. One can never have too much sugar. 100 for the win.
