On Monday, Hostess Snack, a company responsible for Twinkies, Cupcakes and Ding Dongs, shared a photo of a “Chance 3” hat sitting on top of a box of apple streusel coffee cakes. Caption is, “How good is Chance the Snacker? I’d say comparable to Apple Streusel Coffee Cakes.​” Chance the Rapper didn’t just let it fly by, responding to the tweet demanding that they pay him. “Give me my coin” the rapper requests. Hostess has since deleted the tweet, but a Twitter user has shared a screen shot of it.
