SuperTaz Posted November 19, 2012 Author Share Posted November 19, 2012 There might be hope yet for Twinkies after all: http://www.foxbusiness.com/industries/2012/11/19/hostess-union-agree-to-mediation/ Hostess Brands Inc, its lenders and the unions representing its striking workers, agreed to start mediation hearings on Tuesday at the urging of a U.S. bankruptcy court judge. A hearing on Monday during which the bankrupt maker of Twinkies snack cakes and Wonder Bread was set to ask for permission to liquidate was quickly adjourned until Wednesday after the judge urged the parties to mediate in private. The mediation will begin on Tuesday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Nickname Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Looks like it, but hopefully it came as a rude surprise to the union that they aren't playing games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfy Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Recently a work colleague brought some twinkines from an online store cause we just wondered what the famous twinkies tasted like. Well lets put it this way, we won't be getting anymore lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HSMagnet Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 they are bland except for tasting like they are about 20 years old. kids like them because of the sugar rush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTaz Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 I like twinkies. I eat one pack a week. I guess that is why I am a bit wider than normal. :P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutshot Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Twinkies, cupkakes, ding dongs, etc... are more than simple snack food. THEY ARE PART OF LIFE! It's like losing, say, pizza or burgers. They are better than health food, they are food for your very soul. Damned health nazi's are the original reason they are in grave danger. Moderation is the key to them not fattening you up like a piggy. Personally though, I'll miss the fruit pies the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos1907 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 I went into a Wawa the other day hoping they "had" some Twinkies left, they had zip! :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutshot Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 You know what really sucks for me? I never even tried the Twinkies with the chocolate filling. I may have missed out forever. :cry: Next on the health nazi's list of destruction: Oreos. If that happens, I may leave America and move to Sweden. I heard they really enjoy coffee and a good slab of cake in Sweden. A people who really know the meaning of "soul food". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
