    Twinkies are back: Hostess plant in Columbus, Ga., will reopen in July


    Do you miss Twinkies? This may be good news.

    Standing in front of a big “Welcome Back” banner, an executive for Hostess Brands said Tuesday the new company will hire up to 300 employees and reopen its Columbus plant to make Twinkies and other sweet treats.
    The facility at 1969 Victory Drive, known as the Dolly Madison Bakery, is scheduled to be up and running again by July, Hostess Brands LLC Chief Executive Officer Michael J. Cramer said during a press conference at the Greater Columbus Chamber of Commerce.

    I like the ladyfinger too Steve.
    Union is why Hostess went bankrupt, they couldn't make it out if they took a wage cut they'd still have a job.
