A Farewell to Hostess

The news that Hostess Brands would close its doors shifted last week's news briefly away from General Petraeus and Paula Broadwell.  We managed to cram two of our greatest loves--scandals and junk food--into one week.  Sing to the tune of "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star":

Twinkie, Twinkie, sugar high,
Must we really say good-bye?
Hostess cupcakes up for sale
Baby boomers weep and wail.
Twinkie, Twinkie, sugar high,
Must we really say good-bye?

Yodels, Ring Dings, SnoBalls, too,
They were never good for you.
But we ate them anyway
Now we'll buy them on eBay.
Yodels, Ring Dings, SnoBalls, too,
They were never good for you.
