Wal-Mart makes pies, and so does my aunt. Guess what? They're different.

Which personally, I like Little Debbie more, but their cakes are not the same. They taste different just like Coke and Pepsi do...enough to know the difference, but not so much you're gonna freak out if someone gives you the other one.

And I've never seen one of those snoballs coconut like things from Little Debbie.

But Hostess is selling everything to the highest bidder. I want to know if that includes "recipes" so people can chill out and eat whatever brand they will be.

I can't believe people would rather strike and lose their job instead of just realizing they have it good by just having a job period. They're all (except those who went back to try and keep the place running) idiots...and I don't think they should get unemployment since they knew exactly what was going to happen. Hostess told them...either they come back or they close because they can't do this, but they got greedy thinking since they're unionized and it's bad times, Hostess will just give them whatever they want so they can go back to trying to make a profit.

<.<;; I don't drink Soda, either. xD!!

BUT! I do drink some of the products that pepsi makes, so, I guess I WOULD be upset if like, they stopped making Monster, [I think thats sponsered by pepsi.. I'm not even sure xD] or Desani/MiO water drop thingers and stuff like that.

EDIT: And hayyy! I'm not trying to start a war or anything, I'm just pointing out its not my thang, so, I'm not really affected by it.

I think Monster is Coke? Or their own company...maybe bought by another? I'm not sure.

And Dasani is Coke. -just letting you know- But the flavored stuff for water is made by all different companies.

Yeah, those are my addictions. xD; I don't have an issue drinking plain water, but, the water enhancers are the bomb! I like making my own little concoctions outta em <3 Orange Lemonade, Strawberry Watermelon Lemonade, and Peach Mango Raspberry are all really yummy :3

And Dasani just came out with their own stuff, too. The only one I've tried of that, is the Pina Colada. -foams at the mouth-

well think of it in a different way, gaia and trisphee are both avi sites and have many of the same services and some of the same users, if trisphee closed down would you be upset because the site that you call 'yours' closed or would you just switch over to gaia and be ok with it? /that/ is what i am talking about, there are small things that make it different and even the parts that are mostly the same dont give the same rush. one grows to favor certain things like avi sites and cupcakes

and it is hanson natural that makes that god-awful peace-tea my sister likes

Batty for the record, Little Debbie does not make the orange cupcakes that I like. It is not the same thing as a Zebra cake or any of the other products that Little Debbie makes. I think what you are missing is that, the twinkie is as iconic as the golden arches and there are other repercussions besides the fact that Americans can not get snack cakes. Factories provide jobs. No one has thought about how many people are being laid off because of the bakers union. Instead of getting paid anything, now those jobs will not be available at all. This is not something this country needs.

Edit: Cho... XD my teacher did the logo for peace tea and has now been made rich because of its marketing.

pfffft XD fair enough but the stuff still tastes bad

Peace Tea is delicious. The Lemon Sweet Tea and the Green Tea <3

I am more of the Arizona tea person and fuze.

Arizona is good too-I like their Green Tea too XD

I think that's going a big excessive, but I guess I can understand some it of it that way. I rarely ate anything Hostess though. I had a weakness for Swiss rolls when I was little but I'm not sure what brand they were. I think several different people made them, or things like them.

(EDIT: I hate it when I post without noticing that there's another page of responses to look through so my answer looks funny. Was referring to the death of childhood things with the company closing.)

well either way it does not matter, i am going to scrounge up my change and go to every flippin' convinence store in town to buy a package of snowballs and tomorrow i am going to have one last one with my father, i already called him and everything


but sweetie, what would you call the loss of something you enjoyed as a child but never really were grateful for? something that made you happy

there are other companies that make the products, doing a quick google(we dont have that company here) we have the same stuff just done by different people and they taste good

Not sure, but things change, otherwise we wouldn't have stories of "back in the day..." I've kept the odd souvenirs of such things I suppose. I can't really think of any real things that defined my childhood in such ways that haven't already changed beyond what they used to be. McDonald's for example.

So I just learned that twinkies are going on Ebay for 100 dollars.
Cho you might want to keep some of those cupcakes to sell xD.

XD so i should have got a second sno-ball? hahahahaha


but there, i can let hostess die for me at least, a half-dozen convenience-stores the local gracery a dollar general and walmart but i got one, sadly it is plain (did you know they sell orange ones?)
