Twinkies will be winging their way back to a store near you, likely in July. Hostess Brands, LLC has announced plans to re-launch its bakery in Columbus and plans to add about 300 jobs in the area over the next several years.

Apparently several assets were purchased from Hostess when they went out of business. Apollo Global and LLC & Metropolus Co. are reinstating the bakery in Columbus and Twinkies will be back this July.

 

I'm not a fan of Twinkies, but what does everyone else think of this?

I tried a twinkie when I was first in the US, not something I care to repeat. Don't have a problem with other people getting their faviourite snack back. I guess in summary..... I don't really care at all.
