The Twinkie Situation is all Good in Canada
Yea, no troubles in Canada …
Saputo Inc. (SAP), Canada’s largest dairy processor, has the trademark and brand rights to Hostess CupCakes and Hostess Twinkies in the country and manufactures the products themselves, said Sandy Vassiadis, a spokeswoman for the company.
Twinkies, Wonder Bread Carry on in Canada Post Hostess Filing

“It’s totally separate,” she said, in an interview from Saputo’s headquarters near Montreal. “We own the rights in Canada so what’s happening in the U.S. doesn’t affect us.”

So, looks like it’s time for a new trade pipeline. 🙂
Or just bake your own.

It seems like we now have “Chase” Twinkies !!!
Or would that be “Ultra Chase” since we are crossing international borders?
I will miss the aroma of fresh baked Wonder bread when I pass through the downtown corridor of Sacramento.
Got my Twinkie stash smuggled across the border today! 2 full boxes, 9 packs of 3 cakes each!!
(MET: Same taste? … or is better than just being able to buy it on any store shelf? 🙂 )
Some other company will buy the brands and facilities. Twinkies, etc. will be available again before too long.
They need to do a Classics line of Hostess products. They use to be big, but apparently are now being aimed at Fisher Price Little People.
Yes, Yes! I have a Canadian buddy bringing me 2 boxes of Twinkies tonight on his way across the border. I wonder how much I can get on eBay for a sealed box of Canadian Twinkies??
Cars for Twinkies, Line forms here!!!
LMAO! 😆
The heck with Twinkies! What about Zingers and SnoBalls?
We were able to snap up Twinkies, Ding Dongs, Cupcakes and Cherry Pies the day this was first in the news, but now I really want Ho-Ho’s!
(MET: Road trip!)
