Twinkies Doomed ?

"Hostess Brands Inc., the maker of Wonder bread and Twinkies, began permanently closing plants after it couldn’t get enough members of its striking bakery workers’ union to cross the picket lines to keep them open.

'We will close the entire company if widespread strikes cripple our business,' Rayburn said. The strike affects 23 of Hostess’s 36 plants, the company said today."

DonDiego demands a "Twinkie Bailout" ! ! ! Oh, and Wonder Bread too.

Nostradamus warned about this:


In a Western Kingdom
When the twinkling of the golden confection ceases
The End Times shall be near

Thanks for the Daily LVA "Doomed" and Gloom report.

I love the pink snowballs. I guess I should start hording.

For modesty's sake, I'll refrain from posting what Nostradamus said about pink snowballs.

I better go get some Twinkies and then remember to eat them before their expiration date in 2105.

this country has somewhere around 10% actual unemployment! And the bakers union wants to strike, tell them to get f*cked.

bust the union and go non-union!

Government should have lots of available name of folks without work in the towns hostess has it plants!
Put em to work

They taste like paper now anyway.
Us oldsters can remember when Twinkies really were...so...very...good.

So I read this post this morning. Later I went to the store and picked up a box of twinkies.......

I'm with O2bnVegas......Let 'em close down, I swear they used to taste better.

How old must one be to remember that?
