This made me laugh because at the start of the Covid mess I ordered something from them and there was no candy. Having NEVER missed an opportunity to bust somebody's onions, I called my sales guy friend there. Now we all get assigned a "sales engineer", but this guy is actually from where I am and in fact I am still playing an Ensoniq keyboard he sold me in 1988 at Lentine's Music. so I have known this guy almost 35 years. I called him up and playfully laid into him with a profanity laced tirade about how horribly they treat their customers by not including candy anymore. How outraged I was at the lapse in customer service and how dare they expect to keep their customer base with this sort of behavior. I went on and on like I do here.

When we quit laughing he explained that it was a sanitary thing and they were ordered that since candy can not be sanitized that they were to suspend the practice of sending candy.

3 days later I got a bag of mini Tootsie Rolls in the mail! With a note telling me in essence (and in very different language) to take a long walk on a short pier. I can even explain how hard I laughed when I opened that box.

Love those guys over at Sweetwater!
