The Hostess Bankruptcy and 'No More Twinkies' meme trend emerged in November 2012 when Hostess Brands announced it was liquidating its assets. The news sparked a viral 'Twinkie-pocalypse' online, as fans of the iconic golden snack cake panicked over its potential disappearance. The meme frequently utilizes imagery from the film Zombieland, where Woody Harrelson’s character is obsessed with finding the last remaining Twinkies. These memes typically mock the dramatic overreaction to the news, highlight the irony of a snack known for its legendary shelf life 'dying,' or show hoarders selling boxes for thousands of dollars on eBay. It remains a classic example of internet nostalgia and corporate-induced panic.
