OT: Hostess Gone Bankrupt!
 
OMG the makers of Twinkies and all those good munchie snack foods with a shelf life of a bajillion years has filed for bankruptcy protection!

Tell me this is all just a horrible nightmare induced by medication and mind numbing pain! That I am locked in a nightmare world of my own mysery known commonly as HELL!

I couldn't care less. We, here in Holland, have bakeries. We get our bread from real wheat and not that fake stuff you call wonderbread.
Sorry, my opinion on the North American food industry.
Unfortunate for the workers though. I feel for them.

You have not lived until you have eaten a 20 year old twinky!

What? Hostess makes bread too?
Im not going to miss the bread. Thats just an edible napkin so the meat in my sandwiche isnt so messy. I can switch to tortillas.
But the PASTRYS! What will I do without the pastry?
How am I supposed to get my daily recommended preservatives?

My, my, it seems like the people from Noth America are really struck by this.
Now you'll have to switch to real food. Hehehe...
Here, grab a Mars or a Snickers...

Well we do that too, but we also need our pastries!

Personaly Wonder bread was good if it was fresh. Any more then 2 days old and it was nasty.

But if Twinkies are gone...the US will crumble! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

This must be the work of Osama Bin Laden! Yes, this is the way he want to bring the USA to it's knees.
The evil schemer!

That might not be so far fetched. The eternal edibility of twinkies is the stuff of science fiction novels everywhere. It is (at least as far as paperback books) the only "food" worth putting in your fallout shelter. Not like Im going to stock my bunker with tofu! And what will we put on the colony ships?!?
