Reviews and Complaints

On January 9th my purchase at Schnucks (Bridgeton) of $57.01 included the purchased of two Hostess Apple Streusel Coffee Cake. First time in all my 53 years have had a complaint about a Hostess product. Just knotty clumps of gritty sugar cover 95% of the top, no taste of apple. Can you please replace these with 2 banana Twinkies? Picture attached of the purchased product.

I purchased one package of hostess donettes crunch, best by JAN 23 2020 this morning at the Bell store in Ashland OH 44805. Most of them were not edible, as they were hard as rocks. Only two of them were soft and able to be eaten.
The other information on the wrapper is as follows: G [protected] 313

I was getting these today and there was only 5 donuts in the package instead of 6. I do not want this to happen to other people. I would really like this to be fixed and I don't think it would be that hard to get this fixed and do not want to see this happen again. This is the first and only problem I've had with these and don't want to see any more than this.

My name is Teresa Fleger 812 McCormick street Cuba Missouri 65453 I bought a box of chocodile Twinkies at the Sullivan Missouri Walmart and there were only 7 in the package marked as 8 I am a long time lover of the chocodile twinkies I was so sad when they left the market please don't do that again. I figure it is not a fraud but likely a human error. Thank for your immediate attention to this matter. I don't know if any other packages are this way but don't want to upset the chocodile community. Love the Hostess company surely it shows.

I purchased a package of Devil's Food Zingers in October 2019. I thought they
tasted odd, but I put them in the freezer and tasted one again, but again, they tasted odd. They have been in my freezer since then, but I thawed one out and had my daughter taste it without any bias on my part. She took one bite and said it tasted like chemicals and threw the rest of the zinger away. Afterwards, she had an aftertaste in her mouth for about an hour.

I was wondering if anyone else complained about this issue. The number on the box is G 0816 24000 228 20:46 and says best by October 30, 2019.

I realize it may be a little late to complain, but as I was cleaning out my freezer, I saw the box again and decided to write.

Thank you for your attention.

I have found a snack of yours that i can't put a price on. My wife doesn't make a grocery list without adding a box of peanut butter totally nutty bars. The last 20 boxes ive bought have been hard as a rock. I bought 4 boxes at once and found MAYBE 5 pieces acceptable(out of 32). I have even went through every box on the shelf and buying the freshest box available. Still get them home and end up throwing them away. My situation is considered spilled milk but sure would like to see softer totally nuttys in the future

I am 44 years old and have been eating raspberry zingers since I was a toddler and for the first time ever I had a package that was disgusting. Tasted stale and dry. So I opened the other package and same thing . They don't expire till 01/08/20 so I'm not sure what the deal is except for I'm outta $5 and didn't get to enjoy my life long love of zingers.
Thank you

THERE WAS ONLY ONE CUPCAKE IN MY PACKAGE OF BIRTHDAY CUPCAKES

I bought this after a long day of work among other snacks I go to sit down and enjoy it because the birthday ones are my favorite next to Twinkies and there is only one in the package it is still sealed. I was disappointed. My email is nichole.[protected]@gmail.com. Thank you for your time and happy holidays to you and your family

I bought a 10oz bag of powdered mini donuts from Walmart in Idaho falls Idaho on December 9th. They were stale. Looking at the bag I noticed there was a rip in the bag. I don't know if the tear in the bag happened at the factory, during transportation, or in the store. I'm usually very pleased with this product, so you can imagine the disappointment when I opened the bag and found all of them hard as a rock.

I brought a Twinkie from the 711 Saturday me and my children I bite a piece of it and bite down on something thinking it was a filling from my tooth I moved it around my mouth to spit it out when I felt a huge poke in the roof of my mouth I ran to my sink to spit it out and whatever it was was stuck in the roof of my mouth my grandmother looked in and said it's something up there I stuck my hand in my mouth and pulled it out it was a clear piece of plastic with a needles inside of it I got scared ran to the bathroom washed my mouth out and my grandma took me to the er they cleaned it gave me a few shots and and said what I swallowed would pass I went home and started to gag and cough and cough up 3 pieces of plastic this is crazy I never felt so scared in my life to eat I can't even sleep now the roof of my mouth is sore and swollen. My nerves are on edge and nobody will help me find out what's next.

Hostess Twinkies are disappointing to say the least. No cream, Low quality, smaller portions at an increased price. With false advertising to boot.

Honestly, have you no shame? Pride? Have you even tried on of these overpriced so called cakes?

In all seriousness, I will never buy, or recommend any one to consume this substandard product!

You should of let it go back when you had the chance, its a shame how you have gone down hill and expect us to continue to support this product.

There is a very long, black/dark brown human hair partially heat-sealed into the wrapper of a brownie, as well as being inside the wrapper and in contact with the brownie. Completely and thoroughly disgusting! I have been purchasing Hostess products for more than 25 years and have noticed a sharp decline in quality since Bimbo relaunched the brand. I will also be forwarding on a complaint to the appropriate regulatory board/commission. What kind of quality controls are in place to stop something like this from making it off the production line? Obviously your employees aren't following food safety standards, which makes me question the safety and quality standards of your entire operation. I have lost confidence in your brand, your products and will never purchase another Hostess or Bimbo product again.

I love hostess and dong songs are my fav so I couldn't resist trying these. I open it up and the one I pull out is a half of hostess wrapped so I get a little set back and throw the entire box away cause of all the recent incidents of tampering with food. What is going on here? Is this just a mishap in the factory or did somehow, someone tamper with it?

Your product line has gone to [censored]. Everything is smaller and tastes like crap. Used to like products even after the bankruptcy revival but you have SCREWED EVERYTHING UP. Anybody that buys your nasty chemical tasting, chewy, crap will never buy it again. You are relying on an old loved product name to sell your cost cutting current ctappy products. Used to buy them frequently, now I buy none of your smaller [censored]ty product.

I buy these donuts weekly
My grandson will eat 2 bags of them a week...the last bag I bought will surely be the last bag for him!
There was a white powered OBJECT in his bag in which he was thinking look a huge donut...he picked it out of bag and took a bite...it made him gag...not a powered donut
Hard as a brick...big as the palm of my hand and BROWN inside...he had a horrible experience with your product..he wants to go to opposing companies and show them...
