Just purchased a 10 pack of DingDong at a Walmart in Hermiston, OR Last Saturday. After eating a few we found one that wasn't sealed and had the looks of maybe a bite. Also the fillings were running in the ones we ate,

Hostess Brands - twinkie peanut butter and chocolate
I purchased a box of Twinkie Peanut butter and chocolate brand on Jan. 3, 2020. These are my husband's favorite snack cake. However, when he opened the box, it was packaged with the wrong snack cake. It was a peanut butter type cake but was round. My husband does not like these at all so we have had to just give them away. This has happened twice. I don't have a picture to send of the mix up and my husband has already give them away to his co-workers. I do have the UPC number from the box. I didn't know what information you would require. I would like a refund if possible. It's getting to the point where I am having to open the box before I purchase it to make sure that it has the correct merchandise.
Hostess Brands - jumbo frosted donuts - chocolate tasted like chemicals, burned my nose and mouth. made me lightheaded and nauseous.
On 12/3/19, I purchased a box of 8 jumbo chocolate donuts from Luckys. Each one is individually wrapped in clear cello wrapping, and when I opened one, took a bite and the harsh chemical smell burned my nose, the taste almost made me throw up. The taste and smell were almost indescribable but were strong and chemical in nature. My nose and mouth were burning, and I could not get the horrible taste out of my mouth. I felt lightheaded and nauseous. Later, I opened the remaining donuts to check and see if they were all the same, and they were. In the past, I have purchased these same donuts and they smelled and tasted delicious, NOT this time.
I tried to call the customer service number on the box, but the office was closed. I need to find out what kind of chemicals I ingested, and a recall needs to go out so that other people are not sickened by these products. I expect a full refund, as well as compensation for being made sick.

We have noticed that the Hostess chocolate & powdered donettes do not taste right here in Missouri. I don't know what happened but I won't be buying them anymore.
Did they taste poisonous? I just had a ding Dong and it took my breath se away, I smelled my hand that I was eating it with and it smelled just like the cake! Scary!
just opened chocolate mini donuts the first 2 tasted little weird thought it was me 3rd one had to spit out tasted like chemicals & soap what the heck hope I don't get sick were does one get this tested to see what happened they need to be recalled looks like alot of their products are like this
I just opened the first package of hostess powdered donuts. Snack size of 3 from Costco and it smelled like a nail salon. The chemical smelled so bad. I opened another package and it was fine. I have it saved in a zip loc bag so i can take it to Costco.
I purchased a package of powdered sugar donettes on Saturday. The chemical taste was overwhelming- I've eaten and enjoyed these donuts for years without experiencing anything like this- and they were incredibly stale. Even after washing the taste out, there was still a gross, filmy residue in my mouth. I had severe stomach issues the next day. I couldn't find an expiration date on the package. I will never buy this brand again.
On two separate occasions, I have purchased your chocolate zingers and they smell and taste like strong chemicals. My daughter became ill and vomited all evening. What the hell are you trying to poison us with? I want answers. Obviously, from reviewing other complaints and on the web, you are poisoning us and it is not a one time thing. I am having them tested and my attorney and I will be in touch.
I just experienced the same thing. Unreal.
Hostess Brands - hostess cupcakes
i just bought these at Walmart yesterday (10/13/19) best by Nov 16, 19 and I was so surprised when i open the package up and there was not any icing on the cup cakes, no choc or the squiggly line that are your signature. they were a pack of 2 for $1.89 you must have had a mechanical break down with your machines because normally I would buy these all the time for school lunches and have never had a problem. But if you could send me a coupon to get another package that would be great.

Hostess Brands - caramel crunch mini donuts/ hostess donettes limited edition
I purchased the bag at a local convince store at 4:50 am. Took them back to work and opened the bag to have a couple of the donuts. I took the first 3 out of the bag, they were whole but looked in the bag and all the rest were crumbs. Very disappointed and dissatisfied.
I guess I'm not sure who to contact but figured I would start here because I think usually these are put in stores by people who deliver them to each business.
