a time to share

in last week's loblaws flyer there was a special pull-out section. it carried the title "harvest market." okay, cool, playing off the thanksgiving theme perhaps. a little late, but maybe they are just international and like to also observe american thanksgiving. classy touch, now that I think about it. anyway, this special pull-out also carried the subtitle "it's a time of plenty...a time to share." a nice thought. be thankful for the harvest, share with others who may not have had as bountiful a harvest. very generous. kind spirited.

but what were they advertising on this page? what were they suggesting that you share with your loved ones?

cheeze whiz, kraft singles, velveta, no name stringable cheese and kraft dinner, among other similar products. first, why all the dairy? better hope the pilgrims were not lactose intolerant. second, and more importantly:

it is never "a time to share" processed cheese products.

on fri aug 25, in a post entitled "processed fromage", you expressed your love for kraft singles. is it never a time to share processed cheese products because you want to hoard them all for yourself?
