Too bad you can’t give zero stars! Recently purchased some of their cupcakes (10/26) only to find the filling was missing. When I tried talking to customer service of course they go through their li... See more

I really love Raspberry Zingers

I really love Raspberry Zingers. I buy individual ones usually but found a box of 10 at the market so thought I could dole out one at a time instead of gobbling two all at once. BUT these singles are SO dry with very little Raspberry flavor. Yuck. Won't buy the 10 pack again

Gasoline Twinkies

Wife bought me a box of Twinkies as a rare treat (I'm an american living in the UK) since i grew up eating these as a kid in the 1970's. I ate one and it tasted weird, but i couldn't imagine it was the twinkie...i thought maybe it was my tastebuds since i had just had dinner. Opened another one, figuring it was gonna be ok. Same deal, absolutely toxic-tasting. Not my tastebuds, it was definitely the Twinkie. It basically tastes and smells (strongly) of gasoline. 45 minutes later my tongue still has a spot on it that feels like some chemical substance has coated it and won't go away. It's a bit scary as I did eat 1.5 of these (the first one, i wasn't paying much attention, the bite of the second one i was assuming it would be ok, but wasn't). I can honestly say that i'd never (ever) take a chance eating a Hostess product again after this experience. It wasn't a "slight" odour or taste, it was a powerful odour and powerful taste of gasoline/paint thinner. Absolutely disgusting and i am saving the remainder of the unopened Twinkies in the box just in case i become sick or hospitalized in the next 48 hours. I am actually concerned for my health after eating this product.

My boyfriend purchased a pack of…

My boyfriend purchased a pack of Rasperry zingers today at our local convenience store in Tumalo, OR. After eating almost them all he notices a large black fuzzy spot in the end of one. Sure enough it was black mold. Contacted Hostess customer service and left a message. Must mention the date was smeared and not legible. I do not think it was Tumalo Stores wrong doing, the blame is placed on Hostess.

**update**
Hostess called us back and offered us coupons for their products. Yuck!! No thank you....
