With the news of Hostess Brands closing down last year, hordes of people raided the shelves for what was clearly a signal that the beloved Twinkies, CupCakes, and other Hostess sweets will no longer be sold. It was a virtual panic for the multitudes that have grown up with these simple treats. In a way, they had the right reaction. Twinkies has been a mainstay of American culture for decades. Having it suddenly disappear can be really depressing.

I can't express how elated I am that Twinkies are back! I was walking through my local Kroger the other day and I saw them. I actually squealed with excitement, lol. Twinkies have always been my favorite sweet treat and I hope they're back to stay! :)

Do you think that some people will say that this a marketing ploy from the beginning? I am glad that these products are back on the market, but I will not be big consumer of them. ;)
