“[When Faber asked just why would KDP do the deal?] Why would Smucker buy Hostess? David, David, this was a structure problem. Well I mean like obviously people hated the way they structured the deal. They don’t, you talk to yourself about how you’re splitting into a beverage company and a beverage company. I mean, hello, right, right?

“But David someone made a mistake here. And normally you would say listen, I don’t know it’s the company or the bankers but someone made a mistake. I think you need to call out. . .

“[On what was the mistake] The combination is a loser combination and the way that they break the company. . .

“[The market] just hates it. And it’s not gonna start liking it.
