No more Twinkies?
With Hostess going under in the past few days does that mean that Twinkies will now be no longer available?
They were one of my favourite state side snacks and I loved ordering them online as a special treat. I only discovered their sweet goodness a few months ago too. ![]() The thought of it makes me very sad indeed.

They will sell the brand to another maker. And apart from that they are still made in Canada and Mexico apparently.

I think there was talk of the brand being sold to a Mexican firm.

Really, you like them? I tried them out of curiosity when I was in the U.S. and found them to be really revolting. Each to their own, shame that people may lose their jobs though.

I remember as a kid loving them, Ding Dongs and Hostess Cupcakes though.

Deep fried twinkies in Vegas are quite an experience.

Other people have talked of this. I've never heard of them, let alone tasted them

My wife got me a box of chocolate twinkies for my birthday.
She wasn't too keen, but I like them. |

Deep fried Oreos are good too. I even do them myself at home sometimes! |
