I seriously hope some other brand buys the recipe/brand from them for all of their products. A world without mini donettes just isn't worth living in. What makes you say that they'll stick around somehow?
Crumb ones are seriously one of my all-time favorite junk foods. |

Most transparent Union busting move ever. I'm sure next month we will be buying our twinkies from one of the giant multinationals from the same exact lines staffed by non-union workers.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grupo_Bimbo They have bought every other mass produced baked good chain, so I don't see why they won't just add hostess to the list of 300 brands they own. |

the bakers should have thought about that before they struck. when you strike, sometimes you lose.

the company was poorly run for decades. Squeezing the union out was a last ditch move. The Hostess brand put little or no effort into product innovation for the better part of the last two decades. The brand became stale and a joke. Other brands simple took their market share, and younger consumers stopped buying their products.
When the "liquidate" the company some or all of the product/brand portfolio will be sold or transferred. My guess is that another arm of the holding company that owns them will end up with some of their products, or another brand will buy it up. In some instances retailers like Walmart have even bought deceased brands. the end result, though, is that the people who spent their lives making Hostess snacks are going to pay dearly for the bad decisions of the companies leaders. I'm betting everyone at the top gets a golden parachute. |

watched a report on this on cbs this morning and they didn't even talk to a union official to get their side but they did get a nice shitty quote from CEO Shitbag Shitsmear blaming the strike for the closing
also to the guy bemoaning the loss of donettes uh everyone in the snack cake industry makes those |

I don't understand why people can't understand CEO's earn those millions. If it weren't for them, you wouldn't have a job!!!!

we have to protect the sanctity of the job creators and relentlessly blame labor for everything because we are from a gated community and still live with our parents

Romney has an impressive business career and with the economy the way it is now it's really a no brainer he should be president.

The minorities took this country away that my grandparents built. They immigrated here to work hard and make a living. They just sit around, don't do anything at all, and expect the government to support them.

They're called minorities for a reason, though. We could have turned this around but people just aren't paying attention.
