i didn't want to be the first to crap this thread, so now I don't have to. :D I totally agree.

Kraft Foods = KRAP Foods imo.

They taste great at the compromise of quality ingredients. Tons of preservatives, palm oils, partially hydrogenated oils, sucralose, lots of sugar...quality in general of twinkies. PURE sh!t for you imo. If you're on a very low budget, go for it, otherwise I recommend not eating their crap even if they pay you. :)

This post has been brought to you by truth.com ;)

It's tempting...cheap snackage is always good and it can't be any worse than the vending machines at work. Preservatives will make me live forever!!!

You far overestimate the crowd to which you're speaking. A majority of us are in fact, unhealthy computer literates who live on a diet of unhealthy carbohydrates loaded with preservatives... "short live the generation!"

Just looking out for your health. :D

I think most (ok, maybe I am stretching a bit here) can make that decision on their own

Thanks for the great post!

Well the two packages I ordered yesterday are scheduled to arrive today via UPS. I will post later and let you guys
know how they are.

All you anti smoking Nazis should in fact jump on this deal. Im sure the actual UPS shipping charges to Kraft are close to
if not more than $4.99 so Kraft/Altria is losing money on every box they send out. Order enough and Im sure you could put
them out of buisnes lol.

looks to me like smoking is still a legal activity thats not banned by the gov. i bet most of these anti tobbaco nazis would be for making ot legal, makes no sense to me.

let people eat what they want, we can all choose to be skinny as a bone, or fat as a whale, i think we all should still have some freedom in the land of the free.


anyway the poit is STOP THREAD CRAPPING

this looks like a good deal.

It looks as though most of the food is a non-normal type flavor. Probably stuff that they're having lots of problems selling. If it was $30 worth of regular Macaroni and Cheese I'd be all over it...

Even though it says "please allow 1 to 2 weeks for delivery" mine has shipped and is scheduled to arrive 06/05/03. If there are products included that you don't want, try giving them to a local food bank.

Thanks this looks like a cool deal.

BTW, the reason they are doing this is probably because they want to get you to try some of thier new products, or some flavors you wouldn't normally try. They figure if they can get you hooked on at least one of the products you are gonna spend a LOT more than $30 over the next few years on it :) If they can get someone hooked on one of the products, even if 100 other people dont care, they probbaly will end up making money in the end.

Sounds like a nice deal. I got a warning about "no response from card processing network" or something to that effect. It also said that my order was received & I will recieve a confirmation email.

Thanks alot....

Got both my boxes today. Excellent deal. Only the Crystal Light was a small size the rest are all normal
size you would buy in the store. Also includes two coupons one for $2.50 off a new Tombstone pizza and
another for $2.50 off a Kraft meal thing you find in the meat department.

Uh, guys? (not the Lady, she has sense :D)

Philip Morris has been buying companies like Kraft to get away from the slowly dying (like their smoking clients) tobacco business. I live in Kentucky....there may be CHEAP SMOKES places (I like to call 'm CHEAP CANCER) all over the place, but they're slowly dying.

Heck, in New York, they have a law that makes smoking in public places illegal. Get used to it. Welcome to the West Coast :D
