After Hostess Brand filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy back in May 2012 and later began liquidating its assets in November 2012, many wondered what would become of Twinkies, the cream-filled sponge cakes that have been a delicious guilty pleasure for so many for so long. Well, the wondering is over! After being purchased by Apollo Global Management and Metropoulos & Co. for $410 million, Twinkies are back out on the shelf as of today, Friday, July 12th at your local Wal-Mart. They will be available at all other nationwide retailers beginning Monday, July 15th.
