I copied the recipe of Twinkies.
Just look it up on the computer.
I know, you don't want to make
them, you just want to eat them!

Also there's a website TopSecretRecipes.com by Todd Wilbur.
You can copy his recipe too, and sign up for free ones.
His has a book out by the same name.

Mexican company Bimbo may be eyeing Twinkies

I'd rather have another American Company buy that out, I'm not exactly sure what's really going to happen with hostess it would really blow if some company based in Mexico bought them out, but then again... It's like a slap to the face to the bakers union.

The union killed the golden goose. They thought it was a bluff and found out they were wrong.

The union was offered a choice. Take a pay cut, or loose their jobs along with the non-union employes. They chose to be unemployed and cost the non-union employes their jobs as well. You can make the argument that the companies failure was managements fault and I'm sure there some truth to that. But the union had a hand in it as well.
