Bye, Bye Twinkie? Hostess Files Bankruptcy

Fans of Hostess products may be tempted to start stocking their cabinets with Twinkies, but believe it or not the financial future looks strong for the company despite their filing Chapter 11 bankruptcy for the second time in a decade.

The Hostess Twinkie made it's debut in 1930 surviving even the lack of ingredients which lead to a change in the filling's flavor. While the cost of flour and sugar may be on the rise (which is why the company claims to be filing for a second time) junk food junkies can sleep better knowing that they'll still be able to get their "fix" for years to come.
