@SharkE. Is platinum yeast jewelry or food?

@Kachina624

You people crack me up . Yeast packets like you make bread with like Fleischmans yeast U buy at Walmart.

I need to get you folks to baking.  Kitchen forums is turning into a community chat forum not enjoying that any more. I'm losing "that lovin' feeling' over there.

@Spurt.  Did you read several months ago that it was determined the Listeria bacteria came from one of the vendors BB used to get "add in" ingredients?  Can't remember exactly which one.  I'd take my chances with them any day.  I've tried all the other brands and nothing else measures up.

The "corporate speak" they use on reports and press releases boggles the mind.  Talk about the use of imagination.  They can make unfavorable figures sound like a wonderful thing.  It sounds like Mikey will be in charge (CEO) of the retail stores including HSN.  I bet those coupons and free shipping will soon cease.

Blue Bell is just a little bit too sweet for me.....but everyone has their own personal preference and taste---enjoy your Blue Bell! 

As for Mikey....yep love the spin they put on their declining numbers....blaming the Olympics,  elections, the weather (but if the weather were bad wouldnt that help QVC, afterall people wouldnt need to drive anywhere and wouldnt that create a captive audience....and could have been worked to their advantage?).....next thing they will be blaming a full moon, the sighting of Sasquatch...etc etc......

I dont care so much about HSN I think Ive only made about 3 purchases total from them.........But am somewhat concerned now the Q has a chance to "destroy" Ballard Designs, Garnet Hill, Grandin Road, Frontgate and Improvements......I've ordered from a couple of these companies ---Grandin Road and Improvements---these retailers offered unique products....I can only imagine the limited and stale products that will be available once they are given the "Q treament"......

And you're right I agree that the coupons and discounts and free shipping specials will more than likely will be a thing of the past for HSN,.......
