PB&J on white Wonder Bread.
Flower Foods was all set to buy Wonder Bread and reintroduce it to store shelves.
But, then...as reported by CNN Money in May:
Antitrust enforcers are scrutinizing Flowers Foods’ deal to buy the iconic white bread and most of the other Hostess bread brands, The Post has learned.
