Thanks for the link! That combo pkg deal is too inviting not to try. I'll
have to try one of each (8 diff I think) even if only to get ideas and bunch
up on what I think to be the hot ones.
I was serious about not wanting the red lips and sticky fingers. I go
though a lot of those cheapo food-handlers gloves (1/2¢ ea or so) so sticky
fingers really not a huge problem. Why can't someone market a chip that
isn't all dusted and powdered with red stuff?

Well, I just tried to order online and cancelled. No PayPal and they
require a phone # even though UPS in KC has my phone # on file and I don't
see why extremefood.com needs it. Little things. No PayPal no problem
because Discover Card allows me to challenge all charges above $10 at no
charge. Maybe some other time I'll feel differently.
