Newbies are generally the legit posters who add to old threads like this (though I've occasionally had one where I missed the date, myself). And perhaps scared away when they get jumped on. The spammers usually haven't read the other posts and are off target, and have outside links, or merchandise recommendations. I wait for the actual spam to judge. Everybody has to have a first post somewhere. But Sushipup has a good point. I haven't seen it, but maybe the trick is to add outside info later. Like maybe MT is shilling new packaging, Anyway, in answer to your question, I was just trying to point out the potentially innocent ways old threads get revived. We all know the self serving versions.

jkom, that's funny, my mother loved pickled pigs feet, and their similar product, pickled pigs knuckles. The person who taught her to eat them? My Aunt Amy, whose real name was Yoshiko and who came to the States with my Uncle Chuck, he met her and married her while he was in the service stationed in Japan. I always liked liver, although I seemed to be an oddity among my friends for it. I still like liver with bacon and onions, although I seldom eat it now on the advice on my doctor. Peppi, all of those things are also available here, and none are considered particularly odd. In fact, Jiffy muffin mix is made here in Michigan, and I've always got canned salmon, canned sardines and canned smoked oysters in the pantry. I don't particularly like the oysters, but Elery loves them. I don't really like headcheese much either, truthfully, but I can get it and I've eaten it. Ashley still likes the Mrs. Grass' chicken noodle soup in a box as well as the Vienna sausages in a can. So, although I'll eat liver and headcheese, I think "non-dairy creamer" is weird, how can it be creamer, but be non-diary? I haven't figured out yet what exactly Cool Whip is, but my brother eats it frozen, like ice cream. Annie

READ! Adellabedella gave the answer just two posts above your post. Posted by adellabedella (My Page) on Tue, Mar 17, 09 at 16:08 I cut this from Moderator Deanne over at the Kraft food discussion. "Due to the timing of our lists you may receive an additional complimentary issue. You should be receiving an invoice, and won't have to pay for your extra issues." I guess those of you who received the bill are on the first lists.

sleevendog, I don't hate SALAD, I hate iceberg lettuce. I'll eat raw spinach, baby greens, spring mix, even sometimes romaine, but I just do NOT like iceberg. However, if you go to a restaurant or someone's home, that's what you're going to get 95% or more of the time, a big plate of iceberg. Maybe some out of season cherry tomatoes. Ugh. And, if it comes already dressed, like Olive Garden's, that lettuce is going to be a soggy mess within minutes. I eat Waldorf salad and various slaws and Kathy/Mustangs' lovely fig and raspberry salad with proscuitto/parmesan/fresh spinach. I'll even eat that "layered" salad, there's enough in there to hide the iceberg. Just don't give me anything mushy or that "wedge" salad which is just a wedge of iceberg with a drizzle of dressing. That actually hits two of my dislikes, I shouldn't need a knife and fork to eat a salad, it should already be in edible sized pieces so I can eat it with just that salad fork. Annie
