Could it be that our health conscious lifestyles may actually force Twinkies to go out of business? Gosh, I hope not.
I have to say I probably haven't bought any in over 10 years, but just the idea of a world without Twinkies bothers me. This article may have scared me into the middle shelf of the snack aisle more regularly than every decade.
It turns out that it's not only because of health concerns that Twinkies are in jeopardy. There are apparently union issues to be worked out. I think the workers should just be given a case of Twinkies a day (in addition to a fair wage and decent health benefits, of course) and everyone will be happy.
Let's hope for a peaceful world, where Twinkies can coexist with healthy lifestyles, union workers and shareholders alike!
