Insurance companies across the nation have probably started revising the actuarial tables in anticipation of a world without artery-killing Twinkies - and King Dongs (a.k.a. Ding Dongs) and other tasty things, for that matter.

I'm proper tearing up. This is too much for me.
What if I never taste those delicious cupcakes again? |

Yeah, those cupcakes are great too.
I'm pretty confident that if Hostess is liquidated, there'll be zillions of store brands churning out Twinkie clones, and someone will probably take over the more popular Hostess brands anyway.

I suggest the Mexican brand Bimbo. The taste of their products is very similar, and they're pretty reliable.

Thank goodness. A world without Twinkies would be a dismal place indeed.

Friendly Dictator So what can be superior when compared with paying out half the price for brand name children? wow, if brand name children are on sale, maybe i can stop buying all these cheap knockoff children Bibby OK... even I'll admit that the Oakland Raiders' performance might be a valid reason to use the interesting words. |
I don't even...
