Dear Near,
Thank you for helping this, sometimes uninspired, mom find a
way to add some pizzazz to Taco Tuesdays with your Rice Pilaf Spanish Rice. It
matters to me that my family truly prefers the taste of your products, but also
that the ingredient list consists only of recognizable items. I think there may
even come a day when certain people stop picking out the red pepper pieces. I’m
a dreamer.
I have been able to use your familiar branded box to get my
family to try some other side dishes. My teenage daughter is a huge fan of your
flavored couscous mixes, and being able to make them herself adds to the
appeal. I tried the recipe for the salad on your
regular couscous box and found that delicious as well. Suffice to say, I have
not hit on a variety I was unhappy with.
Thank you for making dinner time easier on some nights,
knowing the side dish is taken care of!
Working up to Tabouleh and Falafel,

Did they show up in my kitchen for Taco Tuesday? Well, no, but they did send a letter...
One point.
Current total = 45 POINTS

A letter is good. At least they noticed you! It would be interesting to see whether these companies' response would be different if they knew you were a blogger.
ReplyDeletenot a single coupon??? REALLY?
ReplyDeleteA letter that actually seems to address your own letter by topic? Seems like that should score more points than just a plain ole form letter returned to you.
ReplyDeleteI am disappointed on your behalf that they didn't send you a coupon or product. Ah well...
ReplyDeleteI have written to companies a few times just because I was so impressed with their product. And a couple of times to companies to say how dissappointed I was their product hadn't lived up to it's usual level of excellence. Never thought of making it a contest.

Aww, that was quite a sweet reply. But I agree, they could have sent a coupon or two.
ReplyDeleteThat's nice, but you deserved a bigger reward.
ReplyDeleteLove,

I can't help thinking about how many coupons they could have printed on that piece of paper they used for the letter.
ReplyDeletePepsiCo simply MUST do a better job than this. They have approximately one zillion dollars.
ReplyDeleteI KNEW there was a reason I hate Pepsi and love Coke.
