The nation is still in mourning after Hostess Brandsannounced on Friday that it plans to cease operations and liquidate its assets in the face or a recent bankruptcy filing and ongoing employee strike. But even if Hostess should fall (the case is still working its way through bankruptcy court), iconic snack treats like Twinkies, Ding Dongs and Ho Hos— whose very names hearken back to simpler, happier times— need not perish from the Earth.
