"OK, so no more Twinkies, HoHos, and Ding Dongs, and the company that is going under is blaming its demise on striking workers.
I remember reading the ingredients in a HO HO while standing next to the vending machine in the hall near the student union at Framingham State when it was a college instead of the hoity toity University that it has become by decree. I decided while reading all the preservatives in the thing that if I died after eating one I might remain intact for thousands of years until some archeological project would find my perfectly preserved body and wonder what had kept me so.
So I ask you, when is the last time you ate a Twinkie, a HoHo or a Ding Dong? When is the last time you put one into a kid’s lunch box?
That’s right, the company is going under because they refused to change the formula of their anti-health food at a time when people, especially young people are eating healthier. And the outgoing powers that be would rather blame it on their employees."-john hourihan
