It's always been a puzzlement what happens with
trade names and interstate business expansion.
Pennsylvania's Giant Food was different from and
a potential rival of the Delmarva chain of the
same name; that never resolved until the Royal
Aholds swooped down and bought both companies.
Up until recently at least the loyalty card
schemes were not integrated, though.

But inconsistency, especially not at
the artist level, is a bad thing.

I'd just as soon not have any unless it's of
good quality and made on the spot. Much beyond
that and I agree with people who characterize
it as "bait."

One likes to think so. And even in other
situations concord is generally better
than discord.

Pretty much never. It seemed to be mostly
obsessive recipe collectors, though there
seemed to be those who actually ate.
