And this is why they're going out of business. People are outraged like Hostess products are the backbone of American freedom and its job creators are the victims of dirty 47 percenter greed, but it's a pretty simple matter that their products are not as popular or relevant as people may remember them being when they were actually buying them. The country is still filled with fatties, but a lot better competing junk food products have been created in the last 40 years, and the Hostess lineup -- like their products in a lot of instances -- was pretty stale.
I read a Facebook post today which placed the blame on the mainstream media. Of course, the same guy thought America died earlier this month, so his reasoning must be legit.
