Free of the pension costs and union contracts that weighed down its previous owners, Hostess has nurtured retail sales of its products nearly back to their pre-liquidation level of more than $1.3 billion in 2012, with a fraction of the workers. The old Hostess—which included other brands—employed some 19,000 people. The Twinkies purveyor these days has just 1,100.

Yay Hostess.

Fuck Hostess, another bunch of assholes with incredible corporate mismanagement that used unions as a scapegoat. May they rot in hell.

I've always preferred Little Debbie, except for the donut stuff. That has to be Entenmann's or Hostess.

I'm a big fan of the Hostess brownie. It can be difficult to find though since 7-Eleven apparently does not want it competing with its own private-labeled brownies.

The original brownies are good.

That "Cosmic Brownie" shit they make with the sprinkles on it sucks.
