I was in a bind a few years ago. I used to live liver pate on crackers
with a Manhattan and had favourite herbed pate. One day I was munching
away and suddenly had the most horrible taste in my mouth. It was vile.
I was tempted to take it back or to write to the company. Then I
thought that their response would probably be to send me coupons for
their product. Thanks but no thanks, it was so awful that I lost my
taste for it.
