True, but you hardly need a mix to bake scones. I'd rather not pay for
someone else to throw everything in a box when I've got it in the pantry.

The mixes might be good for trying something new for the family, but my
wife often cooks for 50-100 people, so mixes get a little expensive.

Both good points. It would get *very* expensive for those numbers.

Actually, when I'm in a hurry I make scones with Bisquik.

My friend gave me one in a goodie basket. I have to say that it has the
same off chemically taste of other baking mixes. Some people don't
notice it or like it; but I don't care for it.

I make my own baking mix (bisquik) So there are no preservatives and
therefore when I make scones with it no aftertaste either.
