We have a great dairy farm near here with an ice cream store, petting zoo, etc. The ice cream is made on site and was always made with raw milk. It was beyond wonderful. Then the regulators came in and said they couldn't use raw milk - it was a health risk. The new improved processed ice cream is still pretty good but it's not the same.Linda Leszczukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15117080878321152684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-83002949914984068092010-08-18T13:38:00.176-04:002010-08-18T13:38:00.176-04:00"New and Improved" eh?

I've lost count of the times I found a product I loved, used until it couldn't be used any more, went back to the store for another only to be met with, "Oh, that was discontinued (insert number of months/years here). But we have a new and improved model!" And every time I tried that "new and improved" product, I ended up throwing up my hands and vowing never to buy that piece of #$%@ again. Glad to hear about your wonderful find!!Laurienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-32757430470074519192010-08-18T11:10:11.751-04:002010-08-18T11:10:11.751-04:00It was subtle, but when one day the issue came and...It was subtle, but when one day the issue came and looked so drastically different, I went straight to the masthead and there was my answer.

All I know is lots of products I buy in the grocery store or entrees I like in restaurants disappear. I think the feeling is that we all have the attention span of a gnat so they have to change everything constantly.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04179027379034179865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-11109879443966116712010-08-18T09:54:58.673-04:002010-08-18T09:54:58.673-04:00Hi Lorna I understand completely.

I have had subscriptions to some of these magazines since the beginning. Kept them all in boxes, hubby thought I was nuts but I said I might want to look at them again, such beautiful pictures and stories and recipes. I did not know about Reader's Digest taking over. No wonder they do not look the same.Chicken Herder from Westvillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12036593999826654784noreply@blogger.com
