Default Thanks, Sqwertz

I got my Crème Brulee Cordials yesterday ... and they quickly
appealed to my addictive nature. Yum.

I also ordered slivered almonds, I'm stocked up now. Thanks for
recommending the Superior Nut Company.

When you said that, it made me think of this restaurant near me
that has peanuts you get to snack on (shells on the floor kind of place).
For some reason they always had great peanuts. Chatting with the
bartender one day, they mentioned how much they spend on those nuts
every month, it was a ton of money. I looked on their website
and saw they got them from Newark Nut.

So I googled for Newark Nut and what is their website? nutsonline.

Thanks for the tip, good to know. Nuts are one of those things that
might make my What food couldn't you live without list.

Didn't I post a link to a 25-pound bag? I hope you only ordered
one :-) I'd hate for somebody to be disappointed with a
recommendation of mine, but I do honor them with a half-your
money-back guarantee. (send unused portion to me, allow 6-8
weeks...)

It was just a random link. I was price shopping to see how much
those $2.77/.25lb *really* cost this boutique candy store I
patronize.

I assume all these cordials come from the same "Mysterious Cordial
Company of Timbuck2". And like malt balls, it's hard to find a
"quality" malt ball made from unadulterated 100% Lindt dark
chocolate for under $40/lb, but these are perfectly acceptable for
what they are. Glad you liked them :-)

That's why I laughed, you're not buying a 5 year supply, are you?
No, I ordered a one pound bag.

Eh, then you have shipping fees, restocking charges ... I'll just
keep them.

Well, they arrived very quickly. One might say too quickly, as I was
on a liquid diet yesterday when they got here. Heh. One more
temptation resisted.

I always have the sesame sticks and corn nuts on hand and I have
ordered the pepitas at times. The sesame sticks are a real favorite,
as are the chocolate-mint lentils. Those items are always in my
orders. And the 5 or 6 types of dried fruits I have ordered have
always been great.

I have not tried your other items, but I have never been disappointed
in anything I have received. I just got an $80 order last week. Filled
the freezer goody-shelf.

They have such an extensive inventory that I cannot say I have even
tried 5% of it...probably less.
