I used to eat a lot of Hostess stuff as a kid, so I was as sad as anyone to hear about their shut down. It seems that several companies are already looking to buy at least parts of the old Hostess. It may end up like Atari, with the brand and product being passed to a different organization after the original folds. I think the Hostess products are too popular for them to disappear completely. If nothing else, one of the competitors like Little Debbie will probably make the purchase to prevent their other rivals from getting Hostess' brands and recipes.

Without the conveniently placed creamed filling, we're all doomed. No doubt about it.
(For anyone that doesn't get,
Hostess used to run ads in comic books... including one where all the Twinkies were stolen.)
