WHY GOD WHY

[Shorty]

Twinkie maker Hostess reaches the end of the line

Discuss your grief here.

[Madonna]

That will do, pig.

[Aerith's Knight]

Why would you put cream in cake?

[Shorty]

Because it's delicious.

just to put in perspective the other treats we are losing

hostess products

[Jowy]

time to start stocking up...with all the preservatives they will still be edible thirty years from now. just think, one box of twinkies could pay your rent for a month to a hungry enough consumer.

[Madame Adequate]

God had nothing to do with it. This happened because millionaires swooped in, began stripping the company of everything not nailed down, and then demanded absolutely ridiculous, offensive, crippling sacrifices on the part of the workers (who had already made big sacrifices the last time Hostess got into trouble). Shockingly, for America, the workers actually got mad enough to strike, but the head honchos are happy to use this as a transparent and incoherent excuse to just shut the whole operation down.

If a company goes bankrupt the people at the top and the shareholders should be stripped of every last dime and it should be given to the workers.

Also Twinkies are pretty nice.

[Shorty]

You just have to come in and make it all political. I just want my hostess cupcakes

Somebody needs to buy them out and rectify this immediately.

[Pike]

I am mad about this and not because of the food products. I am mad about this because this is unionbusting, plain and simple.

[Madame Adequate]

As I said I do like twinkies. But I think almost 20 thousand people being fired because of vindictive parasitic CEOs is a more important issue!

I would have thought a hippy like you would understand Moonflower, but I guess you only care when trees are losing their jobs

[Chris]

I can see how this could be considered bad news... Gee, you fatties.

[Shorty]

Trees don't lose their jobs, they just get killed. (of course I care about the union workers, this is tragic)

[Shiny]

This is like Zombieland all over again.

[Futan]

An opportunity for Tastykake to expand to the rest of the country! You should be joyous!

[Sephex]

Twinkies can survive nuclear blasts, but not a bad economy. The more you know.

[Pike]

P.S. Little Debbies is superior.
