They have lost quite a bit of business over this. Many restaurants use Hostess/Wonder/IBC for their buns. They have now switched and most likely, won't switch back.

Damn, Joe. You had all the power in the world at your disposal. You could have stopped this evil. What the hell were you thinking?

You're correct, and the same dipshits crying about unions will continue to defend the CEO's even while their pay is being cut.
