Yes, this is spam, folks, but the real question is, what wine goes
with this popcorn? Buttery, oaky chardonnay?

You're cross-posting, man. We don't need it. I'd suggest Mogen David

US $24.88

Also, a 97.6% happy buyer ratio is very low for EBAY;

It's not so very low when you have over 500 transactions, but I agree that
nearly $25 doesn't strike me as what parcel post would cost, not everywhere
in the lower 48. (According to <http://www.usps.com/rates/parcel-post-
rates.htm> it goes by distance & weight.)

But he's really stretching it in the description, for example when he says
the item is "BRAND NEW. Never used." Can you imagine anyone paying for used
popcorn? :-))

Actually, Dan, I've been to several tastings that featured pop-corn, though
not the ones with lab-made "butter flavor."

OTOH, I have no idea why anyone would post the original to this NG, other than
"food" being in the hierarchy.
