Cobra 76 two 2,677 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 "You are buying a delicious 2 pack of Hostess Twinkies with a Best By Date of Dec 4, 2012. What's so $3000 dollar special about this? Well maybe it's haunted, or maybe it has the face of Jesus etched in the cream filling. Maybe it belonged to Elvis. Or just maybe for $3,000, it can be Elvis's haunted Jesus face Twinkie. You won't know until you bite into it. If by chance this Twinkie is a bit too spooky for you, I also have some lovely *Vanna White gesture here* unhaunted Hostess Cakes for $30 as well. (Or some equally awesome Monster High Dolls, you know if you're into that - Think scary Barbie Doll.)" BAhahahahahaha!!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
devildogdakota 804 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Shit, at the price he's selling them off for, if I only had bought a paychecks worth a month ago, I could have put them on Ebay and took the next two years off from work! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DogMan 2,343 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 You couldn't pay ME to eat that stuff. But for those who do, don't worry. The valuable brand names and manufacturing equipment are still there and you can bet someone else will be making these again soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jbanzai 113 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 On a whim, I bought some twinkies a couple of weeks ago for the first time in MANY years. After eating them, I remembered why it'd been so long....they're not that good. Little Debbie kicks Hostess' ass. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
james lambert 3,059 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 18,500 union workers out of a job, a long standing company destroyed in the process. Reminds me of what happened to our once thriving steel industry, don't you love it. China makes most of the worlds steel now....can they make Twinkies as well??? But don't fret....those workers will now be on unemployment..and WE can pay them for the next few years. Cant blame an ebay guy from making a statement, or making a buck.

mogunner 240 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Buy a "canoe pan". Make golden sponge cake. Take one 8 ounce package of cream cheese, beat in one cup of confectioners sugar, add one regular container of Cool Whip. Take a chopstick and make three holes in the bottom of the sponge cakes, wallowing out the hole inside a bit. Inject the cream cheese/cool whip mixture. EAT... these are 20 times better than the "almost plastic" crap in the Twinkies. You can also take that filling recipe and put it into a graham cracker crust for a quick fake cheesecake that takes like ten minutes to make start to finish... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
liberty -r- death 1,445 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Has anyone figured out that hostess took a huge hit when the fed implemented the new regs on junk food in vending machines at schools? It's actually Barry's master plan working. He can now give our tax dollars to those former hostess employees, and buy more liberal votes demanding government dependence. I'm union and I hate it. They fuck up more jobs than they help only to serve the union bosses. They fuck the little guy and no one seems to get it. I wish they had not followed the union and screwed themselves out of work. It will get worse. If you are not prepping you should be. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It will get worse. If you are not prepping you should be. Very true my friend. I was a Teamster many years ago. I didn't want to sign the papers after I got hired, but the boss said I had to if I wanted to keep the job. Absolutely ZERO benefit from it other than getting to show off my cool Teamster card at parties in exchange for my union dues. No help at all from the Teamsters finding work when the company operation folded up and I got laid off either. Big fukin rip-off. Just added cost for the customers and zero benefit to the union workers. Edit: Forgot about Zingers..... damn now I want some!

csspecs 1,987 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I had twinkies like five times in the last decade. Each time was after watching Zombieland. They are gross. Homemade or fresh bakery "twinkies" are much better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gaddis 1,689 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) Forget it. I'm sure the "cake farts" video wouldn't be too appreciated being posted here in the "General Discussions" forum. Anyone know why they want you to take a J.C. Penny's store survey before you can view that video now anyway? Edited November 19, 2012 by Gaddis Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Marc 147 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Why wouldn't the CEO's of Hostess, now that they have closed shop "permanently", relocate to a Right-to-Work State and start business over? I realize that finding a suitable warehouse or building one, moving the equipment to the new place without the union thugs killing you, and then hiring all new non-union workers would be very expensive.

csspecs 1,987 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Probably because they see that the market for this product is dying. These "food products" are going away like smoking. If they had any business smarts they ran all the R&D costs on the sinking ships books, and they are going to roll out their new healthy and more natural product under a new name without the legacy costs of the old company. It happens all the time, after all its more profitable to be your own replacement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
devildogdakota 804 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I was on my way to work this morning and stopped at a tiny lil' gas station out in the middle of nowhere and found five packages of Zingers ( two raspberry coconut, two chocolate, and one vanilla). I'm gonna do the ebay thing. What the hell! The funds will go towards shotgun ammo. If I can find a couple boxes of Twinkies, shoot I'll have my Rokon Trailbreaker in no time flat!

VR762Shooter 838 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I got a bunch of packs of Orange Cup Cakes that were very hard to find. The only Hostess item I choose to eat when I get low blood sugars Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DLT 1,646 Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Down here we have these things called Gansitos. They are made in Mexico and imported. Practically the same thing, except they add an additional strawberry filling and cover them in chocolate. Probably the worst thing someone trying to lose weight can eat, but damn they taste good. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
