Union that drove Hostess into the ground wants in on new ownership's action

I like how they call the union workers "professional bakers."

They need to tell that union to go straight to hell.

How about they risk their own money and start their own company.

Put the Bakeries in right to work states and tell the Unions to Pound Sand. Twinkles have enough preservatives in them to allow a Truck Ride.

This. Why those fools think the new owners will just say "Sure, come on back, Union" is just beyond me. I think those Union Bakers have baked their last Twinkie.

If I were Hostess, I'd tell them to stick a "Ding-Dong" straight up their union arses.
