Subject:RE: "DO NOT COOK"? From:"bryan johnson" <bryan -dot- johnson -at- motoman -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 12 Mar 2004 16:57:19 -0500
My apologies. You know, shortly after I wrote that, I started
thinking that Pb&j might actually taste pretty good heated up.
Besides, if they had labeled Twinkies with DO NOT COOK, we'd have
missed out on quite a delicacy! Maybe we can batter those little
Smuckers pitas and deep fry them too. Mmmm deep fried.
" Instead of DO NOT COOK (I can heat it up if I want to, dammit)
why not, "This product
is not meant to be cooked." Or "...is meant to be eaten
cold." (Who cooks pb&j?) Or for consistency with the
other products in the line: "Directions: Open package. Eat
pastry."
