Bulk 26.25 Pound Case (Misc.)</b> </div> I have been eating "oatmeal" most mornings for over 50 years. I was raised on Quaker Oats. About 20 years ago, I discovered McCann's Steel Cut (Or Irish) Oats at a resort. Goodbye mushy Quaker Oats. About 5 years ago, I discovered Honeyville Farms. Goodbye overpriced McCann's. <br/><br/>The quality is excellent. I rarely find a husk, which I did all the time with McCann's. They are probably 60-80% cheaper than McCann's and I think they are fresher with a richer, nuttier taste. The 70 oz tins are vacuum sealed with a desiccant for excellent long-term storage. <br/><br/>The common oat is a cereal grain. Oats have a tough inedible outer husk. Inside the husk is the "groat", consisting of the grain or germ inside a bran casing. Oat bran is higher in fiber than any other cereal grain and believed to have cholesterol-lowering properties. <br/><br/>Whole oat groats with the bran intact require extended cooking time (20-30 minutes). One solution is "rolled oats". Rolled oats are traditionally oat groats that have been rolled into flat flakes under heavy rollers and then steamed and lightly toasted. For "quick" oatmeal, the bran is removed or "treated" (steamed) to soften it. The result is a fairly mushy "oatmeal" with very little fiber and little of the nutty oat taste. <br/><br/>The alternative is "steel cut" or "Irish" oats. These are sliced, rather than smashed, and the bran is usually left intact. They resemble small rice pieces. They require longer cooking time than rolled oats, but the result is a much heartier cereal with a rich nutty flavor and lots of fiber. There is no comparison in my opinion. Yummmmm... <br/><br/>The only disadvantage of steel cut is the cooking time. Steel cut oats must be simmered for 20-30 minutes unless they are pre-soaked. Here's a little trick I learned on a cooking newsgroup that makes preparing steel cut oats as easy as instant oatmeal. Put the oats in a bowl with double the amount of water. Microwave to just short of boiling, cover, and put in the frig overnight. The next morning, add milk, fruit, heat, and eat. <br/><br/>I use 1 cup of oats to 2 cups of water. I use hot water from the instant hot tap and microwave for 30 seconds. When ready to eat, I add raisins and a little half and half. This will be 2-3 servings. I always have rich, filling oatmeal ready to go. <br/><br/>Steel cut oats are more filling, digest more slowly, provide more fiber, and are more nutritious. They also help stabilize blood sugar levels, which is important for diabetics and pre-diabetics. And they taste much better than mushy rolled oats. <br/><br/>I like the 70 oz cans with the plastic lid. I go through 2-3/year. The cans are great for storing parts and junk in the garage. <br/><br/>A lot of this information came from Wikipedia. Search for "oats", "rolled oats", and "steel cut oats". <div style="padding-top: 10px; clear: both; width: 100%;"> <div style="float:left; padding-right:15px; border-right:1px solid #CCCCCC"><div style="padding-bottom:5px;"><b class="tiny" style="color:#666666;white-space:nowrap;">Help other customers find the most helpful reviews</b> </div><div style="width:300px;"> <a name="RDZT7RNFMK8II.2115.Helpful.Reviews" style="font-size:1px;"> </a><span><span class="votingPrompt">Was this review helpful to you? </span><a rel="nofollow" class="votingButtonReviews" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/voting/cast/Reviews/2115/RDZT7RNFMK8II/Helpful/1/ref=cm_cr_ifvoteyn/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&token=B3137704706CE07D9CCDB8E788EEFF0E6F543FF0&target=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL3Byb2R1Y3QtcmV2aWV3cy9CMDAwNzAxTFBRL3JlZj1jbV9jcl9pZnZvdGVyZHIvMTg0LTA5NzE1MzktMDg1MTY0Nj9fZW5jb2Rpbmc9VVRGOCZzdW1tYXJ5PTAmYWxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZ0YWc9ZmxhZ2FtMGQtMjAmdj0yJmxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZhc2luPUIwMDA3MDFMUFEmdHJ1bmNhdGU9NTAwMCZha2lkPUFLSUFJM1g1QU1XQkRYQlg0UTRRJnNpZz1TOHp4eEczTldqMTU4UWZxQm5XZmFhWWFURWhYbnlDOTlqRmJqdkh5U0Y0JTNEJmV4cD0yMDExLTA0LTA2VDAyJTNBMDQlM0E1NlomYXRhZz1mbGFnYW0wZC0yMA&voteAnchorName=RDZT7RNFMK8II.2115.Helpful.Reviews&voteSessionID=184-0971539-0851646"></a> <a rel="nofollow" class="votingButtonReviews" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/voting/cast/Reviews/2115/RDZT7RNFMK8II/Helpful/-1/ref=cm_cr_ifvoteyn/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&token=3AED392AC99AB4FD477798A4F6C8A1D29530DA05&target=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL3Byb2R1Y3QtcmV2aWV3cy9CMDAwNzAxTFBRL3JlZj1jbV9jcl9pZnZvdGVyZHIvMTg0LTA5NzE1MzktMDg1MTY0Nj9fZW5jb2Rpbmc9VVRGOCZzdW1tYXJ5PTAmYWxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZ0YWc9ZmxhZ2FtMGQtMjAmdj0yJmxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZhc2luPUIwMDA3MDFMUFEmdHJ1bmNhdGU9NTAwMCZha2lkPUFLSUFJM1g1QU1XQkRYQlg0UTRRJnNpZz1TOHp4eEczTldqMTU4UWZxQm5XZmFhWWFURWhYbnlDOTlqRmJqdkh5U0Y0JTNEJmV4cD0yMDExLTA0LTA2VDAyJTNBMDQlM0E1NlomYXRhZz1mbGFnYW0wZC0yMA&voteAnchorName=RDZT7RNFMK8II.2115.Helpful.Reviews&voteSessionID=184-0971539-0851646"></a> <span class="votingMessage"/></span> </div></div><div style="float:left;"><div style="padding-left:15px;"><div style="white-space:nowrap;"><span class="tiny"> <a name="RDZT7RNFMK8II.2115.Inappropriate.Reviews" style="font-size:1px;"> </a><span class="reportingButton"><nobr><a rel="nofollow" class="reportingButton" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/voting/cast/Reviews/2115/RDZT7RNFMK8II/Inappropriate/1/ref=cm_cr_ifvoteyn/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&token=EF655088339175CBA22F30BCF427155125A452D4&target=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL3Byb2R1Y3QtcmV2aWV3cy9CMDAwNzAxTFBRL3JlZj1jbV9jcl9pZnZvdGVyZHIvMTg0LTA5NzE1MzktMDg1MTY0Nj9fZW5jb2Rpbmc9VVRGOCZzdW1tYXJ5PTAmYWxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZ0YWc9ZmxhZ2FtMGQtMjAmdj0yJmxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZhc2luPUIwMDA3MDFMUFEmdHJ1bmNhdGU9NTAwMCZha2lkPUFLSUFJM1g1QU1XQkRYQlg0UTRRJnNpZz1TOHp4eEczTldqMTU4UWZxQm5XZmFhWWFURWhYbnlDOTlqRmJqdkh5U0Y0JTNEJmV4cD0yMDExLTA0LTA2VDAyJTNBMDQlM0E1NlomYXRhZz1mbGFnYW0wZC0yMA&voteAnchorName=RDZT7RNFMK8II.2115.Inappropriate.Reviews&voteSessionID=184-0971539-0851646"></a></nobr></span> </span> <span style="color:#CCCCCC;">|</span> <span class="tiny"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/RDZT7RNFMK8II/ref=cm_cr_if_perm/?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000701LPQ&nodeID=&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2" target="_top"></a></span></div><div style="white-space:nowrap;padding-left:-5px;padding-top:5px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/RDZT7RNFMK8II/ref=cm_cr_if_cmt/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000701LPQ&nodeID=&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2#wasThisHelpful" target="_top"></a> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/RDZT7RNFMK8II/ref=cm_cr_if_cmt/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000701LPQ&nodeID=&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2#wasThisHelpful" target="_top">Comment</a></div></div></div><div style="clear:both;"/> </div> <br/></div> </article> <article> <h1>Comment on Steel Cut Oats – Bulk 26.25 Pound Case by G.

The shipping is insanely inexpensive making a case an incredible value. <div style="padding-top: 10px; clear: both; width: 100%;"> <div style="float:left; padding-right:15px; border-right:1px solid #CCCCCC"><div style="padding-bottom:5px;"><b class="tiny" style="color:#666666;white-space:nowrap;">Help other customers find the most helpful reviews</b> </div><div style="width:300px;"> <a name="R1XKVAQW66FI7R.2115.Helpful.Reviews" style="font-size:1px;"> </a><span><span class="votingPrompt">Was this review helpful to you? </span><a rel="nofollow" class="votingButtonReviews" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/voting/cast/Reviews/2115/R1XKVAQW66FI7R/Helpful/1/ref=cm_cr_ifvoteyn/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&token=EC35625EE3116BD525D99A18248EE3CD5D76D8DE&target=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL3Byb2R1Y3QtcmV2aWV3cy9CMDAwNzAxTFBRL3JlZj1jbV9jcl9pZnZvdGVyZHIvMTg0LTA5NzE1MzktMDg1MTY0Nj9fZW5jb2Rpbmc9VVRGOCZzdW1tYXJ5PTAmYWxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZ0YWc9ZmxhZ2FtMGQtMjAmdj0yJmxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZhc2luPUIwMDA3MDFMUFEmdHJ1bmNhdGU9NTAwMCZha2lkPUFLSUFJM1g1QU1XQkRYQlg0UTRRJnNpZz1TOHp4eEczTldqMTU4UWZxQm5XZmFhWWFURWhYbnlDOTlqRmJqdkh5U0Y0JTNEJmV4cD0yMDExLTA0LTA2VDAyJTNBMDQlM0E1NlomYXRhZz1mbGFnYW0wZC0yMA&voteAnchorName=R1XKVAQW66FI7R.2115.Helpful.Reviews&voteSessionID=184-0971539-0851646"></a> <a rel="nofollow" class="votingButtonReviews" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/voting/cast/Reviews/2115/R1XKVAQW66FI7R/Helpful/-1/ref=cm_cr_ifvoteyn/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&token=B657E465098ADCCF01BCFA389F946CB9A7554E85&target=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL3Byb2R1Y3QtcmV2aWV3cy9CMDAwNzAxTFBRL3JlZj1jbV9jcl9pZnZvdGVyZHIvMTg0LTA5NzE1MzktMDg1MTY0Nj9fZW5jb2Rpbmc9VVRGOCZzdW1tYXJ5PTAmYWxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZ0YWc9ZmxhZ2FtMGQtMjAmdj0yJmxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZhc2luPUIwMDA3MDFMUFEmdHJ1bmNhdGU9NTAwMCZha2lkPUFLSUFJM1g1QU1XQkRYQlg0UTRRJnNpZz1TOHp4eEczTldqMTU4UWZxQm5XZmFhWWFURWhYbnlDOTlqRmJqdkh5U0Y0JTNEJmV4cD0yMDExLTA0LTA2VDAyJTNBMDQlM0E1NlomYXRhZz1mbGFnYW0wZC0yMA&voteAnchorName=R1XKVAQW66FI7R.2115.Helpful.Reviews&voteSessionID=184-0971539-0851646"></a> <span class="votingMessage"/></span> </div></div><div style="float:left;"><div style="padding-left:15px;"><div style="white-space:nowrap;"><span class="tiny"> <a name="R1XKVAQW66FI7R.2115.Inappropriate.Reviews" style="font-size:1px;"> </a><span class="reportingButton"><nobr><a rel="nofollow" class="reportingButton" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/voting/cast/Reviews/2115/R1XKVAQW66FI7R/Inappropriate/1/ref=cm_cr_ifvoteyn/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&token=2B48F58A483B4C5700D06964767C948B6C9304B7&target=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL3Byb2R1Y3QtcmV2aWV3cy9CMDAwNzAxTFBRL3JlZj1jbV9jcl9pZnZvdGVyZHIvMTg0LTA5NzE1MzktMDg1MTY0Nj9fZW5jb2Rpbmc9VVRGOCZzdW1tYXJ5PTAmYWxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZ0YWc9ZmxhZ2FtMGQtMjAmdj0yJmxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZhc2luPUIwMDA3MDFMUFEmdHJ1bmNhdGU9NTAwMCZha2lkPUFLSUFJM1g1QU1XQkRYQlg0UTRRJnNpZz1TOHp4eEczTldqMTU4UWZxQm5XZmFhWWFURWhYbnlDOTlqRmJqdkh5U0Y0JTNEJmV4cD0yMDExLTA0LTA2VDAyJTNBMDQlM0E1NlomYXRhZz1mbGFnYW0wZC0yMA&voteAnchorName=R1XKVAQW66FI7R.2115.Inappropriate.Reviews&voteSessionID=184-0971539-0851646"></a></nobr></span> </span> <span style="color:#CCCCCC;">|</span> <span class="tiny"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/R1XKVAQW66FI7R/ref=cm_cr_if_perm/?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000701LPQ&nodeID=&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2" target="_top"></a></span></div><div style="white-space:nowrap;padding-left:-5px;padding-top:5px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/R1XKVAQW66FI7R/ref=cm_cr_if_cmt/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000701LPQ&nodeID=&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2#wasThisHelpful" target="_top"></a> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/R1XKVAQW66FI7R/ref=cm_cr_if_cmt/184-0971539-0851646?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000701LPQ&nodeID=&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2#wasThisHelpful" target="_top">Comment</a></div></div></div><div style="clear:both;"/> </div> <br/></div> </article> <article> <h1>Comment on Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade Weeknight Wonders: 139 Easy Fast Fix Dishes by Jodi Detillian</h1> <p>Jodi Detillian — Tue, 05 Apr 2011 00:58:02 +0000</p> <div style="margin-left:0.5em;"> <div style="margin-bottom:0.5em;"> 2 of 4 people found the following review helpful: </div> <div style="margin-bottom:0.5em;"> <span style="margin-left: -5px;"></span> <b>Surprisingly Wonderful</b>, <nobr>March 17, 2010</nobr></div> <div style="margin-bottom:0.5em;"> <div><div style="float:left;">By </div><div style="float:left;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A1SFB5AJH3BD4M/ref=cm_cr_if_pdp/187-7230135-0841809?ie=UTF8&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2" target="_top"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Jodi Detillian</span></a> -

Since my friend doesn't cook at all, I thought this was a perfect book for her since it is easy to follow (with the semi-made products) and every recipe has its own picture! I find cookbooks with mostly texts a big turn off, so this book is perfect with nice big photos of all the dishes. There are a mixture of dishes - Mexican, Asian, American, etc, and a small section for desserts. Most dishes seem to take less than 30 min to make so this is perfect for beginning cooks or people who don't want to spend hours cooking. I think I'll get one for myself too. <div style="padding-top: 10px; clear: both; width: 100%;"> <div style="float:left; padding-right:15px; border-right:1px solid #CCCCCC"><div style="padding-bottom:5px;"><b class="tiny" style="color:#666666;white-space:nowrap;">Help other customers find the most helpful reviews</b> </div><div style="width:300px;"> <a name="R7CK7FLEQ4KYQ.2115.Helpful.Reviews" style="font-size:1px;"> </a><span><span class="votingPrompt">Was this review helpful to you?

i could already hear the kids---tuna casserole, again? what about chicken? could i bake it with italian dressing again and feel excited about it? this is the cookbook for which i have been hunting. all i have to do is look up "tuna" and there are ten new, quick, and good ways to serve it. chicken thighs the cheapest chicken to buy? look under chicken thighs and there's caesar corn crunch chicken, spicy bbq chicken, pizza parmigiana chicken, and, sure enough, chicken thighs with italian dressing. now i know my kids will eat what's in this book and, maybe, i can get them to try something new. <div style="padding-top: 10px; clear: both; width: 100%;"> <div style="float:left; padding-right:15px; border-right:1px solid #CCCCCC"><div style="padding-bottom:5px;"><b class="tiny" style="color:#666666;white-space:nowrap;">Help other customers find the most helpful reviews</b> </div><div style="width:300px;"> <a name="RY6BNO3K8CDT0.2115.Helpful.Reviews" style="font-size:1px;"> </a><span><span class="votingPrompt">Was this review helpful to you?

Now, with a busy career, I come home and the last thing I want to do is plan an intricate meal. I was bored cooking the usual pork chops and chicken, but with this book and a short shopping list of fairly banal items, you can whip something wonderful up in 10 minutes. The simplicity of the recipes is what appeals - no complicated sauces or cooking methods, just straight forward, non-nonsense, yet imaginative receipes. I never use any other book now.

I guess I thought it was about "easy" and it's not. If one must go to specialty stores for items such as tray figs, prosciutto, white truffle butter, smoked salmon, oxtails,mussels, soppressata salami(what is that?), duck foie gras(yikes),creme fraiche, romano flat bean(never saw those), bakery meringue shells,etc, etc,---this is not what I consider easy. Most cooks are into saving time with fresh, normal food items that are easily found in a normal foodstore. I hope in the future Ina reaches out to middle America for more normal not so expensive items to feed our families and friends. With today's economy, one has to be smart, a bit frugal and wise in making easy decisions for quick dinners on the table.. and healthy and easy does not have to be gourmet.Also, most of her tips and extra info was quite simplistic and took up alot of space in the book. <div style="padding-top: 10px; clear: both; width: 100%;"> <div style="float:left; padding-right:15px; border-right:1px solid #CCCCCC"><div style="padding-bottom:5px;"><b class="tiny" style="color:#666666;white-space:nowrap;">Help other customers find the most helpful reviews</b> </div><div style="width:300px;"> <a name="R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V.2115.Helpful.Reviews" style="font-size:1px;"> </a><span><span class="votingPrompt">Was this review helpful to you? </span><a rel="nofollow" class="votingButtonReviews" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/voting/cast/Reviews/2115/R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V/Helpful/1/ref=cm_cr_ifvoteyn/191-3472223-2711503?ie=UTF8&token=2F5B9BD8117D5A2DA466EBE76415A3B9650187C4&target=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL3Byb2R1Y3QtcmV2aWV3cy8wMzA3MjM4NzY4L3JlZj1jbV9jcl9pZnZvdGVyZHIvMTkxLTM0NzIyMjMtMjcxMTUwMz9fZW5jb2Rpbmc9VVRGOCZzdW1tYXJ5PTAmYWxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZ0YWc9ZmxhZ2FtMGQtMjAmdj0yJmxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZhc2luPTAzMDcyMzg3NjgmdHJ1bmNhdGU9NTAwMCZha2lkPUFLSUFJM1g1QU1XQkRYQlg0UTRRJnNpZz1LcXpsRk10NG5ybE5GckZzZlZxcVJCZXlaRWZ6T2xnS3M1NXIyVUdWNkFVJTNEJmV4cD0yMDExLTA0LTA1VDA1JTNBMjAlM0ExNVomYXRhZz1mbGFnYW0wZC0yMA&voteAnchorName=R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V.2115.Helpful.Reviews&voteSessionID=191-3472223-2711503"></a> <a rel="nofollow" class="votingButtonReviews" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/voting/cast/Reviews/2115/R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V/Helpful/-1/ref=cm_cr_ifvoteyn/191-3472223-2711503?ie=UTF8&token=3DF3DE1EE5D5A80C4512E524AE77BC51264156B9&target=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL3Byb2R1Y3QtcmV2aWV3cy8wMzA3MjM4NzY4L3JlZj1jbV9jcl9pZnZvdGVyZHIvMTkxLTM0NzIyMjMtMjcxMTUwMz9fZW5jb2Rpbmc9VVRGOCZzdW1tYXJ5PTAmYWxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZ0YWc9ZmxhZ2FtMGQtMjAmdj0yJmxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZhc2luPTAzMDcyMzg3NjgmdHJ1bmNhdGU9NTAwMCZha2lkPUFLSUFJM1g1QU1XQkRYQlg0UTRRJnNpZz1LcXpsRk10NG5ybE5GckZzZlZxcVJCZXlaRWZ6T2xnS3M1NXIyVUdWNkFVJTNEJmV4cD0yMDExLTA0LTA1VDA1JTNBMjAlM0ExNVomYXRhZz1mbGFnYW0wZC0yMA&voteAnchorName=R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V.2115.Helpful.Reviews&voteSessionID=191-3472223-2711503"></a> <span class="votingMessage"/></span> </div></div><div style="float:left;"><div style="padding-left:15px;"><div style="white-space:nowrap;"><span class="tiny"> <a name="R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V.2115.Inappropriate.Reviews" style="font-size:1px;"> </a><span class="reportingButton"><nobr><a rel="nofollow" class="reportingButton" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/voting/cast/Reviews/2115/R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V/Inappropriate/1/ref=cm_cr_ifvoteyn/191-3472223-2711503?ie=UTF8&token=3084BCF0BF59A583DA3E6436C420EA60F234CC48&target=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL3Byb2R1Y3QtcmV2aWV3cy8wMzA3MjM4NzY4L3JlZj1jbV9jcl9pZnZvdGVyZHIvMTkxLTM0NzIyMjMtMjcxMTUwMz9fZW5jb2Rpbmc9VVRGOCZzdW1tYXJ5PTAmYWxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZ0YWc9ZmxhZ2FtMGQtMjAmdj0yJmxpbmtDb2RlPXhtMiZhc2luPTAzMDcyMzg3NjgmdHJ1bmNhdGU9NTAwMCZha2lkPUFLSUFJM1g1QU1XQkRYQlg0UTRRJnNpZz1LcXpsRk10NG5ybE5GckZzZlZxcVJCZXlaRWZ6T2xnS3M1NXIyVUdWNkFVJTNEJmV4cD0yMDExLTA0LTA1VDA1JTNBMjAlM0ExNVomYXRhZz1mbGFnYW0wZC0yMA&voteAnchorName=R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V.2115.Inappropriate.Reviews&voteSessionID=191-3472223-2711503"></a></nobr></span> </span> <span style="color:#CCCCCC;">|</span> <span class="tiny"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V/ref=cm_cr_if_perm/?ie=UTF8&ASIN=0307238768&nodeID=&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2" target="_top"></a></span></div><div style="white-space:nowrap;padding-left:-5px;padding-top:5px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V/ref=cm_cr_if_cmt/191-3472223-2711503?ie=UTF8&ASIN=0307238768&nodeID=&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2#wasThisHelpful" target="_top"></a> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/R2Q5BTWNJKRU3V/ref=cm_cr_if_cmt/191-3472223-2711503?ie=UTF8&ASIN=0307238768&nodeID=&tag=flagam0d-20&linkCode=xm2#wasThisHelpful" target="_top">Comments (14)</a></div></div></div><div style="clear:both;"/> </div> <br/></div> </article> </main></body></html>
