LONG LIVE TWINKIES! Erm...

Little Debbie!!

I hate, absolutely hate having to shop for stuff in BigBox retail, so while the wife was looking around today I figured I'd wander off quietly to check out the beer selection at WalMart and look at what I found sitting on the counters!



It's the actual recipe, tastes the exact same, but cheaper, and you can get it by the box!!

You'll be able to get the real Twinkies soon enough.

Have Twinkies Killed the Union Movement?

Twinkies Are Coming Back | Wall St. Cheat Sheet

Twinkies coming in July - CBS News

Hostess will be coming back it looks like starting in July. Their intention is to start reopening plants, but NOT bring back Union Workers.

However, the Little Debbie brand of snacks tastes better to me anyways as I get that stuff quite a bit (plus it was cheaper than the Hostess brand and tasted fresher most of the time).

LOL, at this point they can't hurt me much worse than being hurt and getting a bit portly.

I went for a ride and used it as the mid-ride-bonk eats.

All that. A little cheaper and honestly I know people who work for the company that supposedly bought out the brand, both in the U.S. and in Mexico. I fear for their workers b/c they don't respect people very well and honestly could use a union if they do move forward with this. (Not that I am for or against unions, merely indifferent.)

My money is with LittleDebbie now, what Hostess did was seriously an eff'd up deal. Screw people out of jobs, screw the market base, all the while padding your bursting bank accounts.

OK, that's just wrong.

*If there was a completely grown-up hot RedHead model who's the new spokes-lady for Little Debbie holding a box of those all you leg humping horn-dogs would be at the store buying up as we speak. Don't deny it.
