Hostess Brands Inc., the maker of the iconic snack Twinkies, announced today that it will liquidate the entire company because not enough striking employees returned to work by a Thursday evening deadline set by the company.

It's useless junk food. Who gives a shit?

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

It's the Commies. We always knew they'd start with the fifth column that is organized labor but this is more insidious than I thought. First comes the worker strike that cripples our best hope for survival in an apocalyptic scenario, then comes the nuclear strike.

I've indulged in an occasional Snowball, but none of their other junk appeals to me.

Welp, didn't really like anything from Hostess anyways. Used to like Wonderbread as a kid, tthough

Right, because you've never had junk food your life. You never watch t.v., never post in an online forum..., and never play video games. All useless shit anyways.

I couldn't give a shit just for the fact that there's countless other brands that make the same stuff. It's like lamenting a certain cereal brand going under as if all the other brands don't make their own versions of the same damn cereal

I can't believe they went on strike in this economy, when Hostess was doing so badly. It's as if they all said "I want to go on unemployment."

I wonder what an upcoming episode of The Simpson's will be when Homer can't buy a treat he wants?

[Cane]

Let's start a Twinkies Kickstarter

We'll make millions

Then I'll start a diabetes insurance kickstarter

Billions

Mexican to the rescue!

Economists say part of the reason Hostess struggled was due to high sugar tariffs meant to protect local producers, the Monitor reported. Grupo Bimbo could take advantage of lower sugar prices in Mexico.

[Fabbs]

Make our own??

"In the last few days, several people have posted new do-it-yourself Twinkie recipe videos on YouTube."

[Fat boy]

Both sides have agreed to mediation. Whoohoo!!
