Birds Eye Fordhook Limas were my very favorite frozen vegetable, since
childhood (and I'm in my late 40's). I love them enormously:-( I had
noticed that it became increasingly difficult to find them in recent
years. I've still got a stash of them in my freezer. I'd been
parceling them out slowly, but I guess I should use them, since having
to throw them out because of freezer burn would add insult to injury.

Grumble.
