Awwww...nuts!

In the great words of the even greater character, Michelle Tanner, I only have to say "Aw, nuts".

I have a nut story. I know that sounds strange, but it has a happy ending and will make more sense if you just keep reading.

A few weeks ago I was at work and opened my bag of delicious Italian Parmesan slivered almonds. Only....they didn't taste right! Well, I was in disarray. These nuts are the only thing getting me through my Southbeach Diet. They are great to snack on, low in carbs, high in flavor. So, I do what any normal american would do-I complain.

I wrote an e-mail to the company, first telling them how fantastic they are, and then telling them that they must have packaged them wrong. Of course, they were very concerned. They asked me to send them both bags (as I had bought two at the time) overnight so they can get to the bottom of this. I spent $47 to get them out to California, and then went to the nearest Pick'n'Save to buy more, as no matter what, they still taste good....just different.

A few days later I hear back from the company, and it turns out they had changed their recipe. They said that most people would not notice the change, but since I eat them so frequently of course I did. I said "Are you calling me fat?!?!"...nah, just kidding. But, they were still very gracious and sent me a whole box of the OLD nuts that I enjoy so much (the last box actually), and it arrived today. So, now I have 12 bags of the nuts, and my $47 back.

And that, my friends, is closure.
