Is anyone else old enough to remember when the chocolate icing on Hostess cupcakes went all the way down the sides instead of just sitting on the top like now?



I think messing with that was the beginning of the end for the company!   >:D

Look on the bright side. What's bad for America may be good for Mexico.

"Liquidation in this case doesn't mean that we'll never see these products again. The brands may be parceled out to different food conglomerates or all taken over by some other firm.The last time Hostess went bankrupt, Mexico's Bimbo Bakeries tried to acquire them and they might make another run at it." --Slate

Bimbo Ho Hos...perfect!  ;D




Sarge

It will be up to the 2 hedge funds that control the company to decide whether any deal from Bimbo is any good.  It Bimbo cannot come up with an offer that is better than the liquidation value, there will be no deal.  At any rate, Bimbo may need pepto bismol if it offers too good a deal ...      ;D
