        @WSJ @tellittoal we can live without Twinkies; if we lost Oreo's life would cease. Although the single sleeve tastes like Hydrox.. weird?

        @WSJ @tellittoal could just as easily have been written against the support of BOA. Both made America fat an lazy.

        @WSJ @tellittoal Should have let BofA fail and bailed out Hostess. Twinkie's are less toxic
