    Oh! There was ONE product test that I shook my head a firm "no way!" to (and this is TRUE)......

    There was this product like a "burn-resistant cream" which a company promoted 4 yrs back. They showed us first how it allegedly worked.....by putting a 2 ft long metal chain on fire till it turned super hot red. Then they asked any of us to grease our hand with that 'cream product', and run our fingers right on that burning metal chain. 'Say what?' 'Who would wanna try that?'

    BUT.... I do walk right to some of these taste-test promos......like the Haagen-Dazs ice creme, and Starbucks Coffee? :D I'd love to be their product tester ----anytime.....anywhere. :D

    Yes, I have tried certain air heads before they came out and ranked them how I liked them.....I don't think any went out.....maybe the mango flavor did, but I am not positive.

    And I have tested gum out before as well......done that around 3-4 times in my life.....quite a boring panel to do.
