Southern Born, Southern Bred. China Doll Lima Beans rule …What else do you do with the ham bone after the holidays?
God bless your company, in this day when everything changes faster than a person can blink, China Doll still tastes the same as they did when Mama cooked ’em almost 68 years ago. Delicious!
I completely agree with the other comment, other products that have been around for years have bent over to more modern ideas, consequently changing forever how they taste, from something easily recognizable to trash basically. But NOT China doll limas, thank God you have NOT changed, like the old saying goes “don’t mess with something if it’s already good”.
When we have large lima beans it tastes just like it did as a child, I’m very thankful to you for that, and hope you never change!
