Now i am craving chocolate with nuts  :D 

If one does the research, it can all be traced back to huge parent conglomerates which own the companies making brand names and store brands, all using the same base ingredients but tweaked to cater to different tastes.

Is also the same with stores, for example in US, you have Aldi's, which is a Dutch company. In Netherlands the stores are much different than in the states. They are more like a department store in Netherlands and of course sell brands not found in the states.  There are also in Europe the British Primark stores which are different in each country where they exist but also basically the same. They launched some stores in the US, in the New England states which i here are really coming for the Walmart stores there. Will likely be Primark stores all over the US in about a decade.
I miss some of the stores that we went to in Ukraine. Especially the cross stitch store and the threads they had.

Remember th Peanutbutter recall, Peter Pan makes the Walmart brands.
I had heard Henzi made most of the store brand soups.

I luv Peter Pan peanut butter! I don't remember any recalls on that particular brand.

What is sad is now even pet food is being recalled. I worry about our dogs occasionally.

Gotta be afraid to eat anything these days according to the news. I wonder how the food was back in day like the 1300's ?

My mom used to raise Too's as well as Macaws,Amazons and various small parrots. I do not agree with breeding them of course but if one is the right personality etc they are amazing pets. Not for everyone of course. I had three Macaws and a DYH Amazon when i lived in NY. Had to rehome them as the move to Europe with quarantine and seven hour flight etc would have been too much stress for them. Miss them a lot but they are doing well.

I have a good friend who has a grey Amazon and it is a really cool bird but I wouldn't want one.

Grey Amazon?  Do you mean an African Grey? They are super intelligent, one of the best talkers.  They for sure are not for everyone,they are super loud, messy,destructive and no matter how tame they will still bite now and again. Also they cannot be left alone much and they need a lot of attention. Are common household items such as nonstick cookware you cannot use when you have birds.

Has anyone else been watching react channels about this girl? I will not watch her channel for the reason every view is actually paying her to kill herself. I have watched some of the react channels about her. Apparently, she is finally getting help but i wonder if is already too late. At her stage of anorexia or whatever she has, her organs have likely begun to shut down. Is said her mom is alcoholic but still, she has eyes, she can see. Who lets their daughter get to this point? If one of our kids was even close to looking like this i would be getting a mental health writ and to hospital she would go,as many times as it takes. I hope she is truely getting help and is not too late for her. Even her legs are turning red de to heart issues. She seems like a nice person but for sure with serious problems.

I haven't but wow, I would never let daughter or son get in that shape. Son is skinny but he burns off a lot of what he eats. Daughter eats and not into that but I agree what parent lets their child get in that shape.
