Hostess (TWINKIES) Blames UNIONS for Bankruptcy

Of course Gregory F Rayburn, CEO of Hostess is blaming the unions......he is not going to confess to destroying the company.

It really is a shame that most of us know the truth. At least those of us with half a brain!

I can see it being the Umions. Hopefully they could reorganize like Romney wanted the do it with the car industry. Twinkie will be back

Yeah, Romney is fucking brilliant!

And people loved Romney because he was "successful" and his supporters said 'don't demonize him because he made money!' Well supporters that was one of the ways he made it. People need to get a clue!

I'm glad these executives are getting exposed.

Yes I'm sure that was enough to bankrupt the company, and not the bloated pensions of THOUSANDS of employees.

maybe the plastic food aera is ending

$1.75 million for 19 people!! $90,000 bonuses HOW OUTRAGEOUS! EVEN THOUGH IT WAS PART OF THEIR CONTRACT, WOW.

I am really sure $90,000 for 19 people is why Hostess failed and not the unsupportable pensions for 18,000 people.

"The ingredients come from phosphate mines in Idaho, gypsum mines in Oklahoma, and oil fields in China."


"One of those ingredients is a preservative, sorbic acid. Sorbic acid is an ingredient I see on many packages, and I have never thought twice about it. But author Steve Ettlinger did. He found that sorbic acid is actually derived from natural gas.'


"If that isn’t shocking enough, he goes on to talk about other ingredients like cellulose gum, Polysorbate 60, and calcium sulfate. Apparently, these ingredients are also used in sheet rock, shampoo, and rocket fuel. No wonder Twinkies make kids run around like crazy and have even been used as a defense for murder!"
