Zachary Confections Informative - Misleading Packaging - Assorted Chocolates
Assorted Chocolates
Over the holidays, I purchased a 3 lb. box of "Assorted Chocolates" produced by Zachary Confections, Inc. The description stated, "Our Favorite Selection of Caramels & Cremes". The packaging showed nine example chocolates of which three were caramels and six were assorted cremes (see the actual package: http://www.zacharyconfections.com/item_detail.cfm?item=05-693&catid=4 ). The actual contents totaled 84 chocolates of which ONLY SIX were caramels! The description put caramels before cremes, which tends to imply more caramels than cremes. The illustration tempers that idea by showing only 33% caramels. The reality is only 7% caramels.
The chocolates were all made with real chocolate and were high quality confections. The cremes were some of the best I've tasted. But if you prefer caramels (as I do), Zachary's assorted chocolates is not your best choice.

But was the rest of it good?

There is virtually no debate over whether global warming is occurring, only how severe it will be, and the bulk of the evidence suggests a human, rather than natural, cause. Yet you wouldn't know this from listening to the White House or reading the Wall Street Journal.

Ya know the old saying "don't believe everything you read."If you really enjoyed the chocolates next time purchase only the caramel.

I never cared for Zachary candies...they are way too sweet...sometimes sweet enough to choke on.
