Chicago: City on the Make: Sixtieth Anniversary Edition"Once you've become a part of this particular patch, you'll never love another. Like loving a woman with a broken nose, you may well find lovelier lovelies. But never a lovely so real." Ernest Hemingway once said of Nelson Algren's writing that "you should not read it if you cannot take a punch." The prose poem, Chicago: City on the Make, filled with language that swings and jabs and stuns, lives up to those words. In this sixtieth anniversary
"Once you've become a part of this particular patch, you'll never love another. Like loving a woman with a broken nose, you may well find lovelier lovelies. But never a lovely so real."
Ernest Hemingway once said of Nelson Algren's writing that "you should not read it if you cannot take a punch." The prose poem, Chicago: City on the Make, filled with language that swings and jabs and stuns, lives up to those words. In this sixtieth anniversary edition, Algren presents 120 years of Chicago history through the lens of its "nobodies nobody knows" the tramps, hustlers, aging bar fighters, freed death-row inmates, and anonymous working stiffs who prowl its streets. Upon its original publication in 1951, Algren's Chicago: City on the Make was scorned by the Chicago Chamber of Commerce and local journalists for its gritty portrayal of the city and its people, one that boldly defied City Hall's business and tourism initiatives. Yet the book captures the essential dilemma of Chicago: the dynamic tension between the city's breathtaking beauty and its utter brutality, its boundless human energy and its stifling greed and violence. The sixtieth anniversary edition features historic Chicago photos and annotations on everything from defunct slang to Chicagoans, famous and obscure, to what the Black Sox scandal was and why it mattered. More accessible than ever, this is, as Studs Terkel says, "the best book about Chicago."Binding Type: Paperback

Good and can be used in many dishes.
These are pretty good mussels they have not been smoked or anything added to it but mussels, water and salt. Since they are packed like that, you can use them in a variety of dishes.
I would buy them again but only when they're on sale because they are pricey.

Simple ingredients, nice flavor
Flavor Name: Original Turkey, Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 18)
Nice, simple ingredients. Very tasty. Amazon seriously needs to stop using fragranced packaging. It is highly toxic to both people and pets, and it ruins the product because the stink never comes out.

They're selling near-expired, bad product gone sour
Flavor Name: Original Turkey, Size: 1 Ounce (36 Count)
I ordered these in bulk for the second time in a few years. The initial order showed up as-presented. The recent order could not be farther than what these are advertised to be.
At first, it appeared they changed their product. It looked different, I thought as I noted the soon-upcoming expiration date.
After trying one, I quickly realized they did not only LOOK different but also tasted sour & dry. At best, they are not storing these correctly. But even worse, I suspect Country Archer may be selling bad product intentionally to get rid of it in bulk.
Super disappointing from a company I once bought from regularly in local stores. And by the way, they do NOT stand behind their product. If you spend $60 on a bulk order that is inedible, YOU ARE STUCK WITH THEM.
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A COMPANY WITH NO RELIABILITY
(sorry for all the angry caps lock but they really do need to resolve the issues presented in the many low-rated reviews, as any good business would do)
