dried beef, as in product to make creamed chipped beef, close cousin to
sausage gravy!   you get it mostly in the ubiquitous plastic bag, but
hormel still has a couple of cheese-jar type arrangements available.

our glassware is mostly 4/$1.00 plastic tumblers or large glasses (bless
mom's inherited depression mentality) other than wine glasses.  and the
revered LOTR glasses that light up at the bottom (Never used that feature).

for a lark, the winter BK offered them, we took them to our midwinter
feast.  carefully holding arwen and aragorn to our chests, we were often
complimented on our lovely heavy glassware.   what a hoot....
