Hostess Brands - m&m brownies

Look my kid and I love hostess it's the bomb but to put it simply the last ones we bought were a little disappointing. I mean I understand trying to save a dime here and there but cmon those m&ms were white I couldn't let him eat that they're clearly expired. Store wouldn't do anything because the date on the package was within acceptable margins and it was no mistake of theirs. We would just like our legit hostess brownie we paid for :( here's some pics thanks

Hostess Brands - hostess donettes-cinnamon sugar crunch mini donuts

New flavor of Donettes interested me, but when I tasted them was overwhelmed with the cinnamon coating and underwhelmed by the crunch. Batch # G 1016 24000 289 10:43. Are your products taste tested before release? Only introduction to this product was on shelf at Target Store. Please adjust the coating flavor and have customers review - "Less is More"

Thank you!

Hostess Brands - hostess frosted jumbo donettes

we had purchased a box of Hostess individual wrapped jumbo chocolate donettes..so this morning, 09/26/2019 at 9:00 am, my husband opens one and scarfs it down...after swallowing the 3rd bite, he tastes some kind of chemical taste, he proceeded to violently vomit, gets dizzy, have blurred vision, labored breathing, and instant diarrhea. He texted me and told me what happened...so I get the one out of my lunch box and opened it. It has a terrible chemical smell almost like kerosene. I raced home from work and took him to the ER. He is home now, and the doctor said it was good that he vomited so much after ingesting it, and it didn't have time to absorb into his system. Please don't buy these or give them to your kids...Called and made a complaint to Hostess and was given a claim number and a fax number to send medical bills and records to.

My family luvs all hostess products, but this morning I bought these powdered donuts frm our local Marathon station as i do many mornings. We took a bite & had to spit in trash. 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 experation date is good if I'm looking at it right. Anyway I'm sorry to complain bcuz we have never had a taste issue bfor with our hostess buys, mabe got to hot in route or store who knows I saw your website for this while looking for experation date. Thank you for your time & again luv luv hostess keep up the good work. I have photos of our throw away minis in trash(ooh sorry), & of bag also. I don't really know if it would be due to company or store bought from.

Hostess Brands - ding dongs

I bought a box of 10 individually wrapped Hostess Ding Dongs yesterday at the Dollar General store in Britt, Iowa, only to find one of them in the box was cut off about halfway through when they packed it. As you can see from the photos, the package is still sealed and there is cake & frosting in the seal. What can be done about this? This is not the first time this has happened and these aren't that cheap.

Hostess Brands - fudge covered twinkies

The product is great but I purchased a box that was supposed to have eight (8) Twinkies and one of the packages was empty. It is actually a bit funny that when packing the product one little package didn't get a Twinkie inside but still managed to be put in the box. I just thought you might want to know so that if you inspect these boxes before they go out, someone or something didn't do their job! I will be glad to send the empty package if you need proof.

Hostess Brands - ding dongs

We bought a box of ding dogs like we always do. We eat the crap out of ding Dongs. They are the best. However we got a box last night. Omg they were nasty. I though it was just me when I ate one. But then my son and boyfriend came and said something. They are dry, hard, and some weird nasty taste. The weird taste is not in middle part it's the cholocate. And they are not expired. We are very disappointed. Makes me not want to even eat anymore. And I can eat a whole box myself
