Re: Food vendors that make me wonder ?

It seems these vendors are hired to represent the product,  if there isn't someone from the company itself that wants to do it.  I just noticed the Kansas CIty Beef long-time rep, was just selling the new chicken products (can't think of the brand name) and now there's a new vendor for KC Beef.  Also, the woman who sells the Landee's candy, she has been on representing various products on the Q.  Former QVC hosts are doing different jobs, such as Laurie from Prindable Apples, and one that represents a beauty product (Kim) and one that helps with the Dennis Basso line and the guy representing the Squirrel Brand now (sorry can't think of all their names).  Now there are people from the actual company, like the guy from Harry London candies, the woman from Cheryls Cookies, etc.

I always have about 6 containers of Hellman's in the pantry. Love,love,love the stuff and a "jar" doesn't seem to go as far as it used to. 

I've never had Miracle Whip but just put it on my grocery list so I can try it with tuna salad. If I don't like it, I am sending it to you @Kitty Galore. LOL


@Danky. LoL. Let me know how you like it !  I'll gladly accept the jar if you do t like it , I think you will though lol

Re: Food vendors that make me wonder ?

I think the original poster had a point about that particular vendor.  We all know that Marc Charles, Jan Muller, Mimi, etc. are the reps for many products.   I also don't think they are always involved with the production, etc. of the items they present.  Just like when Mally and some others say they are in the "lab" working on their new creams, etc.  Now Mally is the spokesperson since she no longer owns the company.  Not putting anyone down for their work, but many vendors are just reps/spokespersons for one or many products.     We also realize Laurie isn't making the carmel for the apples, etc.

But don't even BEGIN to try and tell me that Kraft Mayo is as good as Best Foods/Hellmans!!! LOL!


I buy many store brands, etc., but when it comes to mayonnaise it has to be Best Foods!

Re: Food vendors that make me wonder ?

The only time I was really angry with QVC with a food item was many years ago I ordered their Christmas Mrs. Prindables apples.  I bought them to give to co-workers but was stunned when I opened the box and the box inside which contained said apples was emblazoned with the Affy Tapple signature . . . if I had wanted Affy Tapples I would have bought them at the local store and paid a lot less (albeit not as fancy and if I had known about QVC's shenanigans I would have found something else for a gift) . . . one phone call to CS corrected the problem but that was a jaw-dropping experience for me.

Re: Food vendors that make me wonder ?

I grew up in a devout Best Foods (Hellmans) family. I never tasted Miracle Whip until I was older. I thought it was weird and sort of sickly sweet.  Never had Kraft.

 

I left behind most family beliefs but have clung to Best Foods. :-)
