Hostess? They're still in business, I'm sure.

Well, maybe. The Kansas City based operations closed at the end of 2024. Smuckers purchased Hostess in January of 2024. So, the brand is probably still around however it's not the Hostess anyone has fond memories of. Does anyone have fond memories of them?

Of course! Twinkies and ho hos and cupcakes.

Of course the cream in them depleted over the years, but was good.

Peel the chocolate covering off the cupcake and eat last.

But, everything has changed, and not necessarily for the better.

Cadbury eggs suck now. Used to be awesome when they first came out.
