Hello /ck/ /co/mrade, here so did you hear the big news about to happen I personally hope it does.

>Grupo Bimbo, a Mexican company that is the world's largest bread baker, might hold the key to saving the Twinkie from extinction in a Hostess liquidation.

It was just a matter of time really.
There is no way a valuable asset like the name "Hostess" would go by, without being snatched up by someone!

Remember what happened with Mother's Cookies?

Same shit different day. Service hiccup and welcome to the New Hostess.

indeed I hope it keeps it's name like how Bimbo let Roman Meal bread keep their name.

I can't see any other outcome, the whole reason they want the Hostess flag is for brand recognition.

We already have Marinela's Submarinos here (same as the Twinkies, but with no corn syrup). Bimbo can fuck off.
