Don't go stocking up on Hostess Twinkies just yet. While Hostess is going out of business, its name-brand desert may be up for grabs on the auction block. Mexican company Grupo Bimbo -- the world's largest bread maker -- may even have an inside track on the acquisition of the iconic brand.
If you still don't understand why Twinkies are selling for staggered amounts of money on Ebay, Lalo Alcaraz's latest cartoon may provide a quick explanation.

About the artist:
Lalo Alcaraz is perhaps the most prolific Chicano artist in the nation, according to his own bio. Lalo has been busy for over two decades chronicling the political ascendancy of Latinos in America and vigorously pushing the boundaries of Chicano art in the Post Chicano Art Era.
An award-winning journalist and illustrator, Lalo is also an author, faculty member at Otis College of Art & Design in Los Angeles, and radio host. He is also the creator of the first nationally-syndicated, politically-themed Latino daily comic strip, “La Cucaracha.”
Lalo’s most recent project is a re-boot of the famed Pocho.com, his pioneering humor, satire and cerveza webzine/blog/news site.
