Comments

Bandit is a venerable blond cocker spaniel owned by Helene Blackwell of South Carolina. A true Connoisseur of all food, she especially loves the aroma of this dip. It remains a hit at parties, testimony to Miss Bandit's discriminating sense of smell. (It's possible that she has given it a taste test, too!)
