Some sad news
It appears that the maker of Hostess and Wonder (if it's) Bread is emerging from Chapter 11 protection. Given what this manufacturer does to innocent flour, sugar, and other ingredients, I was hoping for Chapter 7, or at least for one of their Quality people to a reputable bakery to find out what real baked goods taste like, and change their product line.
I think you have won the "faint praise" award when you praise the "Tastykake" by saying that it has "the added bonus of actually tasting like food," and that it's "1000 times better than anything Hostess ever made".
:^)
One more such faint praise, and you get a hat trick!

...thanks a lot. Now I got a hankerin' for a Twinkie!
I loves me some Twinkies!! Grandma treated us kids right! *sigh*
Philistines. Sigh.
I've never had a Hostess Philistine. Hmmm... Sounds interesting. Is that like a HoHo?
HoHo's, Ding Dongs,Mini Muffins...
i think this elliot spitzer thing has polluted my mind.
I have only one thing to say to this:
Nobody bakes a cake as tasty as a Tastykake.
They are 1000 times better than anything Hostess ever made, and have the added bonus of actually tasting like food.

And tastykakes, of which I'd never heard before, allows you to shop for their goodies online.
Hostess doesn't, at least not at this time. Their store is down for remodel.
