hostess cinnamon streusel coffee cakes
Dear hostess customer service people,
The only other time I even contemplated writing you was also in regards to the above mentioned product and I was going to inquire as to whether or not you add crack cocaine to your product. Seriously though, I'm pretty sure I single handedly keep this line in business as I eat a box to myself in a matter of hours. Unfortunately as I write to you this time about this product, I'm writing to say my beloved coffee cakes have tainted my taste buds. I had to do some last minute errands and like so many times before I hastily threw a couple of boxes in my cart right before the check-out to indulge my addiction. Being the addict that I am I could not wait to be safe in my home before devouring the sweet goodness of these meth filled miracles so like a raccoon to a trash can I tore open the package and sank my greedy teeth into what I expected to be the soft cinnamon filled fix. What I got instead was a crunchy yet gooey nightmare that I could only describe as little Debbie herself wiping her summer heat sweaty [censored] on my tongue. It does not appear that every cake is ruined but I think it's ruined enough for me that I may have to slow down on my intake. Thanks I guess? In any case please remedy this situation as this was one of the last sources of happiness that my pathetic life had left.

apple streusel coffee cakes
They are totally black on the bottom .I wish I could send you a picture haven't ever seen anything like it before 4 out of the box it looks like mold to me what if my children would have gotten a hold of them it's sad I spend over $3 on a box of of cake and can't even eat one would have had to take them to the hospital my husband passed away a month ago last thing I want is to make one of my kids sick from a cupcake I don't know what it is but not good what ever it is
mini muffins 5 pouches 20 muffins
Very tasty muffins. A little expensive but worth it for the taste and convenience Except 1 of the pouches only had "2" muffins in it? Oops ?
My family likes blueberry and chocolate chip best but we've tried others and they taste good as well. I know things are automated but I wish there was a way to make sure you get what you pay for of at least 4 in each pouch ?
ding dongs peanut butter
On August 1, 2019 we purchased a box of the 14.82oz peanut butter Ding Dongs from Shoprite in Edison NJ.
Opened box when we got home approximately 20 minutes later. My 11 yr old son bit into and immediately spit it out. He said it had a really weird taste.
So I ate a piece and spit it out as well. Something was very wrong with these cakes. It had a sour / acidity taste. It was terrible. We stopped eating any more of those.
The went back to to shoprite to return it but they wouldn't give money back or anything because I didn't have my receipt.
So I'm reaching out to you for some kind of answer or reason these are bad. What was it? A chemical?
I saved the box and samples we bit into. I also took pictures.
Please let me know what to do.
Thank you.

I purchased this snack cake at Leadwood Grab N Go, Leadwood Missouri. When I took a bite the entire bottom and inside was covered with mold! The only number on the package is 1 G020223000 033 10:06. There was no rips or tears in this package before leaving the store. I have taken pictures of the product and packaging. My name is Rachael Snyder and my contact number is [protected].

Bad taste im sorry don't quite no how to describe it except for spit, oh no yuk, take big drink to get rid of foul taste they left in mouth. I will also mention to store but...
Read full complainthostess donettes
I bought two bags of the donettes almost 4 dollars a bag and they was stale I looked for a expiration date and the is no date on either bags. There should always be a date on the products so customers knows they are getting fresh products. I will not be buying from Hostess again because they show they do not care. Hostess use to be the best products on the market in the past and they need to go back to the old ways of making good products.
peanut butter ding dongs

My son threw up and i spit it out while i helped him not choke because the taste was HORRIBLE. and THOSE 2 bread tasted/reeked of chemicals and burnt plastic so i look on the back of the bread and it had a black spot.

This is not ok i will definetlu never buy this stuff again if this is how they taste and i love peanut butter so i was excited about eating them. i currently have the bread on my lap and i can smell it. Please feel free to email me @[protected]@gmail.com for more details because this is soooo wrong. Idk how this happens if its food you sell at walmarts !
6 pack frosted donuts
I stopped at the Mobil gastation in Grand Blanc and biught a pack of the 6 pack frosted hostess donuts.I had unpacked my here was a huge black hair wrapped all along the donut and inside the frosting and donut, this is absolutwly disgusting and i will NEVER buy any hostess product again. Especially since this package was sealed, which means someone from your factory was not taking the correct and legal sanitary precautions.
peanut butter ding dongs
I purchased a box of peanut butter ding dongs tonight for my childrens snack. I took yhe last one out of the box, took one bite, thankfully i did swallow it. It tasted HORRIBLE. it was so bad i started throwing up and no matter what i did i could not get the taste out of my mouth. No the box was not out of date, and my children did not complain, after i came from the bathroom i smelled the cupcake, it even smells HORRIBLE! To be honest i can not tell what it smells like(NASTY) my husband said it smells like some kind of chemical. Not sure what happens now, but this is NOT ok.
hostess
The last couple of times I've purchased these, I noticed they were.so dry, almost overcooked and very little filling. Both had expiration dates were a month or more out. I've been a lifetime customer and this is very disappointing. The first box surprised me because exp date was a month out, so I thought I'd give it another try and same thing.
Very surprised at this quality based on the history of this brand.
hostess bakery petites
I purchased 2 packages of the bakery petites in double chocolate and strawberries and cream. When I got home and put my groceries away I opened the bag of chocolate to find that they had previously melted and were now back to normal temperature and all stuck together. It's a 10 minute drive from the grocery store to my house so I know they did not melt and then re-harden when I had them. I am attaching a picture of the cake mess and my receipt with the time and date of purchase on them.
frosted donettes
Your frosted mini donettes are now smaller and have less chocolate on them. I pick up a package of these about once a week at my holiday gas station. Because I eat them regularly, I immediately noticed the size difference and that there is noticeably less chocolate on them. I buy your brand even though it is more expensive and this is how you repay loyal customers? I will not be purchasing these or any of your products again.
its was very nasty.
Just bought one of your cakes from petrol in Ashburn and this cakes was full of mold. As it was bought for my husband Birthday today 7-19-2019 he took a bite before seeing it was tainted with mold all the way through. I am very worried he will get sick now. I am very disappointed as he love your cakes and you allow this on shelves. Picture will show you. This package was very gross and high health risk.
hostess vanilla zingers
My zingers had mold on them, this is the second time I got them and had to throw them away. The first time they had a bug baked into it, I only figured that out after I had taken a bite out of it. Please look into this matter so i can some day enjoy them again. I love zingers but really sceptical about buying them ever again ?
peanut butter hohos
I bought this product on July 18th 2019 and there is mold on it. The lot number is 4G030823000067 10:45. I got this product from the Exxon gas station. I feel like noone is checking the dates on the cakes. Everytime I go in there the cakes are low or out of place. This store need to be checked for outdated cakes cookies and pies. I am a loyal customer and I always shop here for a late night snack.

I went and purchased the ‘ HoHo' product through you guys ‘ Hostess ‘ and everything Peer to be just fine. I even reached in the back for the HoHo food product (it's believed the freshest and best was always behind the rest) . . . But when I bit into it I had immediately noticed a horrible taste and right after it was followed by a very unpleasant smell . I looked and there mold. It was disgusting. I did check the expiration and had not expired. I'm just upset I share everything with my 2 year old daughter and it upsets me that she could've bit into it as well
orange cupcakes
Opened a box of hostess orange cupcakes. Unwrapped one cupcake and notice green spot on bottom of cupcake, looks like mold. I then took the rest of the cupcakes out of box and found a green moldy spot on top of icing, still inside of package. This is unacceptable and I expect to be compensated, for this. Expiration on box was Aug. 22 2019 Would appreciate an immediate response.

cinnamon coffee cakes
To whom it may concern,
I purchased 4 boxes of your individual wrapped cakes. With 4 kids and my working fiancée they go through a lot! Especially if they're playing outside
Or swimming all day. I don't know it it took place at the store or during bagging but all 4 boxes of these cakes where completely smooshed- it was beyond eating without making a huge mess. I thank you
