I can honestly say I’ve never felt so utterly appreciated for purchasing a product before this package arrived yesterday.
.
.
The box told me I was helping hungry children.
.
.
And that I was awesome.
I already knew this, but positive reinforcement never hurts.
.
.
The inner paperwork thanked me.
.
.
And told me again how awesome I was.
.
.
It went on to explain that my one little bottle of ground rosemary (because the husband refuses to eat fresh… it’s too prickly. 🙄) fed one needy child.
I hope it’s true.
I’m choosing to believe it’s true, because if it’s not… I’d have to reconsider my awesomeness, and that’s not happening.
.
.
The rosemary was quite good so I may order from them again.
But I seriously doubt it will be this…
.
.
Tofu.
Smells like sweaty feet… and tastes even worse.
🤢
.
Penzeys Spices give me little embroidered patches and bumperstickers and jewelry pins AND never once has tried to sell me on the idea that tofu is anything more than tofu.

Well, at least your ordered, ground rosemary was a hit. And, the hubs thinks fresh Rosemary is “prickly?” WTH? It’s the best of the herbs out there.

Oh geez, don’t get me started on these charity scams consumer companies run. Yeah, they’re donating 50 million meals… but their maximum donation goal is already a fraction of what they normally sell anyway…. so they’re just using the “but this to help charity” gimmick to increase their sales by making people think their purchase actually made a difference. Sorry to be so cynical, but 23 years in retail have opened up (and made me roll) my eyes to shady stuff like this…

No problem, I didn’t buy it for that reason anyway.

“Buy this to help charity”, not “but this”. WP needs an edit function for visitor comments!

‘But this’ would be more appropriate for my awful FB ads….

My husband always generously donates his tofu portion to the kids when I do a stir-fry. It’s not that bad!

I have been a vegetarian for 25 years.
I have eaten tofu ONCE.
ONCE was enough. 😀
Tofu is NOT awesome.

Just think how many more they could have fed and how many trees they could have saved if they hadn’t included so much paper with the box??

I like Tofu but not Eggs, so that Definitely would not work for me.
