I love their pears, but honestly, everything else is disgusting. My family (who really should know better since I was taught from birth not to eat that kind of crap) sent me a package of their dried sausages and cheeses. Hmm, perhaps they're trying to tell me something? Re: The Popcorn Factory. I will not stop eating the cheese popcorn until it's gone. I mean REALLY not stop. I love that stuff. And the caramel corn's not bad. But every other flavor? I either give it away or toss it. And the interesting thing is that most people feel the same. So the question is, if they feel that way, why are they sending it out as gifts? Right? Harry and David. I love their pears, but honestly, everything else is disgusting.

The irony is I live in Oregon where Harry and David is based and it seems silly to be having them ship around 6 apples or pears, etc when they are just down the road. Understanding of course that they are probably shipped much further, it is more concerning, as you say, that they 'shine so'... yet another use for corn that you saw in your flavored corn set. We are just struggling to use all this subsidized corn and now it is going to be stupidly subsidized as fuel... My resolution is always eat better than last year... now if I can just find a polite way of asking my folks to save the money on the Harry and David stuff ... now that is a tougher chore. Hope the New Year is great for your resolution as well (but, if there are any chocolates you are looking to get rid of, you know where to send them...)
