The average salary for all bakers is about $11.50 per hour. Experienced bakers at high-end retailers can earn up to $18 per hour. The largest percentage of bakers have jobs in craft and specialty bakeries or grocery stores.
A non-skilled Hostess Baker would make half of what a top level Engineer would make coming out of the gate. Seems fair to me

Better rush out and stock up then......
What's the shelf life of these, something like a thousand years?
No more fried Twinkies at the state fair

i cant argue with your logic. Though $32,000 is a bit low for a Baker, its not easy labour work.
A HIGH END Baker can make twice that much. High End = someone with a degree in pastries from a culinary school, and who makes wedding cakes etc etc. The 'Bakers' at Hostess were people who pushed buttons on machines and mass produced junk food pastries in a machine. They didn't sit at a table hand decorating pastries ... it was all non-skilled labor

The funny thing is--I never really craved a Hostess until I read this thread haha!edit on 17-11-2012 by NarcolepticBuddha because: (no reason given)
