Brrrrrrrrrr

It's not quite 127 degrees below zero, but 15 degrees below zero is dangerously cold.  Luckily we have lip balms to help keep our lips from getting too chap in this second round of "polar vortex" weather.  We can supply your business with a variety of lip balms that you can hand out to customers...they will think of you everytime they use the lip balm....hmmmm, that's better than a business card!

When Pig's Fly...

The was a story on NPR's Marketplace program yesterday regarding popular pork dishes in New York that are utilizing unusual parts of pigs.  An except from the story follows: 
"While the supply of pigs might be shrinking, demand for pork has been flying high. "Bacon has been a very big food trend," says brand consultant Debra Kaye, author of Red Thread Thinking. Kaye says our cultural tastes have evolved and we are embracing bacon like never before. "We started to see that sweet, smoky, salty could go together... and what is better salty and smoky than bacon? And that's where it really started to take off."
Case in point: bacon donuts, bacon cocktails, bacon chocolates, bacon-flavored vodka, bacon ice cream, bacon lip balm...
All this new demand + low supply = the price of pork goes up..."

Bacon lip balm caught our eye...and yes, we are guilty...We've made numerous orders of bacon flavored lip balm....

Jump Around...

Our lip balms are traveling again.  We made an appearance at the Capital One Bowl in Orlando.  Unfortunately a resounding "Jump Around" rendition between the third and fourth quarters wasn't enough to help our Badgers on to victory.  At least the weather was nicer in Florida than Wisconsin!
