Get your Twinkies while you can!

G[SIZE=-1]ATHER[/SIZE] ye twinkies while ye may,
Old time is still a-flying :
And this same snack-treat that smiles to-day
To-morrow will be dying.

The glorious lamp of heaven, Ding-Dong,
The farther he's a-getting,
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he's to setting.

That age is best which is the first,
When youth, pastry are warmer ;
But being spent, the worse, and worst
Times still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time,
And while ye may go marry :
For having lost but once your prime
You may for ever tarry.

Robert "Tallahassee" Herrick.
 
Well at least now I have an excuse to pick up a box of twinkies at Walmart.


good luck with that... there's been a major run on Hostess products all day today and the store shelves have pretty much been cleaned out and no restock of any of the products is happening...

once they're gone, they're gone and the twinkie, dingdong and hoho are history...

I read another company may make them...
 
I don't think we've seen the last of Twinkies or Hos Hos just yet. The assets are ripe for the picking, and I suspect Kraft, Mondelez or another company is just waiting to buy these brands and assets.

Then they could just re-open the facilities but with a non-unionized workforce.
 
"Yo! Ding Dong, man. Ding Dong! Ding Dong, yo!"
 
Well at least people will get a history lesson of what's in a Twinkie 30 years from now when they watch Die Hard.

that's beautiful... I completely forgot about that...

and that's how people must be looking today as they're clearing off those store shelves... LOL...
 
Maybe I will try the deep fried twinkie wrapped in bacon. If I am gonna do it once.

^ So basically even the combined powers of the Justice League and The Avengers couldn't save Hostess.
 
Odd question, but if they company that owns Twinkies goes under, doesn't that mean that every other similar company can make Twinkies?
 
What the **** does a mummy want with a snack cake? That comic fails.
 
The wizard who expended his or her energy to reanimate the mummy needs fuel. Otherwise the spell is broken.
 
Wars, and celebrity deaths I can deal with, but this....this...my God!!! 2012 being the end is real, and it's wrath has come in a much more horrible way than we can all imagine. What other food can survive the inevitable nuclear war that will be caused when people go insane fighting over the last few twinkies?



Ya know, in all seriousness, I haven't had a twinkie in years, and now that they're going under I suddenly want one. Well played Hostess, well played.





God damn it...I thought that was the case :o I guess I need to start preparing for the Twinkiepocalypse and hoard them all in the cellar now. :csad: This is a massive conspiracy to prevent me from making tasty treats with Twinkies.


Where exactly would this cellar be? Just curious, for hypothetical sake. It's not like I'm going to put together a crack team of world class thieves, and raid your cellar or anything, lol, no...that would be silly. So where is it?
