While I personally don't care about and won't miss Hostess products*, it bothers me that so many people are losing their jobs.
* I used to love Ding Dongs, Sno-Balls, and Twinkies. Then, for ethical reasons, I became vegetarian in 1988. Once we actually started READING ingredients labels, we found--to our dismay--that all our favorite Hostess products contained "animal and/or vegetable shortening."

After a few years we stopped looking. I can honestly say that after 25 years, I'm over it! I don't care about those products and won't miss them. There are many perfectly good alternatives by mainstream companies that don't include the dreaded "animal and/or vegetable shortening" in their ingredients.
