"The new Hostess, which is owned by a joint venture between Apollo Global Management and C. Dean Metropoulos & Co., was purchased for $410 million in March." (Reference)
Are you happy to see the reformation of Hostess brand?

"Wal-Mart is selling Twinkies in an exclusive collectible box that says "First Batch" on the packaging and has the new Twinkies tagline: "The Sweetest Comeback in the History of Ever." They cost $2.98 for a box of 10."
