Struggling in bankruptcy court, Hostess Brands is warning more than 18,500 employees nationwide that their jobs are in jeopardy if the company can’t emerge from Chapter 11 reorganization or find a buyer.
The company’s warning affects at least 856 employees in Indiana, most of them workers in Hostess commercial bakeries, retail stores or distributing the company’s iconic breads and treats including Twinkies.
How bleak and sad would be a world without Twinkies and Ding Dongs and Ho Hos be. Yeak, OK, fine, "the public mood has turned against high-fat, sugary foods like those made by Hostess." Go be fit and trim and miserable then.
