Someone is selling a box of Hostess Twinkies for $8,000 (Mexican, money, state)

Gee. I have a loaf of Wonder Bread Whole Grain White in the freezer. Think I can fund our retirement with it?

Think this twinkle thing is just nuts? There are people who, Even while working to support their families have difficulty keeping up with the cost of food. Actual food. Things with vitamins, protein etc and not a snack that has so many preservatives it will outlast the lifespan of most people. To hell with the junk food there are bigger issues in this world. I know the plant closing cost jobs and this sucks but c'mon.

No one in their right mind would pay a kings ransom for Twinkies.

Suckers, the Bankruptcy Judge told the parties they have to work something out.

They are still made by a manufacturing right in Canada ;so unlikely to disappear.

They are still on the grocery store shelves as of yesterday. There must be some dumb people out there to pay anything over retail.

In the words of Homer Simpson, "Mmm, Billy Beer... We elected the wrong Carter."
