Is there a union bakery left in the USA?

I was reading the Twinkies Comeback post the other day. Someone asked if there was a Union alternative. When I search for union bakery snack items, I get mergers and acquisitions, and stories about Hostess coming back as Non Union.

Anyone know of a Union alternative to Hostess?

There are also many union bakeries that make name-brand and supermarket-brand breads and buns.

Then I watched the 5th Amendment - don't talk without a lawyer video...

glanced over at the Samsung is an evil empire thread...

And, crap... what was my point?

Hrmpf... it's either low-t, adult adhd, or these fucking non-union safeway english muffins...

I need union sugar man.
