Do you really have to modernize to make, box and ship a twinkie?
Notice how in one sentence it tries to say that the desire for healthy alternatives was not to blame. But then turns around and pairs this needed modernization along with expanding their offerings.
I’ve heard this same code lingo from liberal friends who used to criticize McDonald’s. I guess Hostess should have made a Vegetable brick available and McDonald’s should make the McVeggie. With McDonad’s and Hostess you DO have a choice; it’s called the gas pedal.
What expanded offerings did they need? They had everything from Twinkies to Ho-Hos to powdered donuts? Were they supposed to make processors for intel?
they were able to keep the shelves stocked, at every store i knew that carried them. perhaps they maintained their existing equipment.
