    Nooooo! A package of twinkies or cupcakes and a glass of water before bed when you are drunker than snot is a surefire hangover cure. It has never failed me once in over 20 years of occasional overindulgence - usually on New Year's and Halloween. But if I skip the hostess, I hurt like hades the next day!

    Started to panic for a minute there, then realized most of these products are not available in Canada anyways. Carry on.

    Maybe they should just do what we have done - cut back. Concentrate on one or two snacks instead of trying to corner the world market on fattening, not good for you, scrumptious tasting snacks. Just sayin'

    It's Chapter 11, that just means they're restructuring the company and trying to get rid of their debt. There are usually *some* job losses when that happens, but it's not as if the entire company is going under. There will not be any Twinkie shortage.

    Yes, it's all your fault, dear.

    Don't fret. Just run out and buy everything on the store shelf and store it in your basement. Twinkies have a shelf life of "Forever".

    Correct. Also, another interest would surely scoop up the company and continue to produce at least the most popular products under the brand.

    Let's not waste time placing blame, let's band together and pray! We need focus! We need unity! Save the Ding Dongs and the Fruit Pies! And without Twinkies what will Bear Grylls eat from his backpack when he's stranded in an arctic tundra? We can't let kids settle for Little Debbie snacks in their lunch boxes! America needs you! The fate of the America hangs in the balance. Step up people. Let's keep politics out of this.

    Do it for the cupcake icing swirls. Do it for your country.

    Oh, c'mon... You probably picked those copy-cat goodies at a copy-cat store, like a 7-2-11.

    This sounds like a pickup line in a cheap amature porn flick.
