It's official. Twinkies are toast, at least as far as being a Hostess product is concerned.

heh my bad I missed the one in the political section. Yeah Lynn I think from what I heard is that Twinkies will still be made because hostess isn't the company that owns the patents or something. Also I'm pretty sure this might've been the second time, they survived the first, why not enough?
