I didn't really care about the death of Hostess.

[conuly]

Other than the occasional Yodel (which admittedly was delicious) or Snoball (which I always regretted), I didn't buy much of that.

Anyway, I take it for granted that sooner or later the same recipes will be flooding the market again, though likely with different names.

So I didn't think there was much to say, until I walked into my supermarket and saw Krimpets for sale. Well, of course, with Hostess out of the way other companies will move in. As a kid, I thought those were made up for Maniac Magee! Should I buy some, or were they overhyped in the book? It's always fun to eat, read, or do something from a book... but is it better in this case to continue to rely on my imagination?

Out here, Hostess is not unknown, but Bimbo is the big company for that sort of thing. They own a ton of other baked goods brands.
