Bob’s Twinkie crisis

By
From page A5 | 2 Comments

EDITOR: Heartfelt sympathies to Bob Billingsley on the demise of Hostess Twinkies. Anyon who knows Bob is aware of his addiction to the sweet, cream-filled, cake. I sure hope he can get on with his life without them. But it will be tough.

I offer broccholi as a substitute. But it is green, firm and nutritious which makes it, therefore, unacceptable.

    The beauty of capitalism is that someone (one of those evil 1%ers) will come along and buy the name and continue to produce them without a government bailout.
