The high point of last night's episode of 'Saturday Night Live' (with guest host Jamie Foxx) was probably the Academy Award winner's portrayal of the not-so-popuar Hostess snack, Ding Dong.
When the US auto industry was in jeopardy four years ago President Obama stepped in with a bailout package. Now it's the American junk food industry that's in peril, with Hostess Brands closing up shop and heading for liquidation, and some want Obama to take an even more drastic step.
Daniel B. of Kansas City has started a petition for the president to "Nationalize the Twinkie industry."
In the wake of the closing of Hostess, many are worried that they won't be able to get Twinkies, and driving the prices of the snack cakes up to absurd degrees on eBay.
Good thing the recipe is easy to find, if you're not made of money.
We went to our local Walmart when we got off of the air earlier, and the Twinkies were gone! I was lucky to get the last box of Hostess Suzy Q's. But if you just HAVE to get some Twinkies we have your answer.
Hostess is shutting down the ovens in their bakeries, and their trucks will no longer deliver the tasty treat that many of us grew up thinking would survive even a nuclear bomb. After hearing the news, I learned more about Twinkies than I ever knew, I bet some of these facts will be new to you too.
Takeru Kobayashi may officially be banned from the sport of competitive eating, but that hasn’t stopped him from setting world records. On ‘The Wendy Williams Show,’ Kobayashi set a record for consuming 14 Twinkies in one minute.
