When The Chips Are Down

Having been an avid fan of Mrs. Fields cookies for some time now, I thoroughly enjoyed reading about the brains behind this successful product. I take exception to Mr. Liederman's comment that Debbi Fields is an "airhead" and that Mr. Fields really runs the business. She obviously has far more insight into people, management, and marketing than Mr. Liederman's arrogant attitude represents.

Give me a fresh, warm, wonderful cookie sold by people who are pleasant and enjoy what they are doing as a result of Mrs. Fields's enthusiastic leadership. I wouldn't waste my time or money on a dry, cold, overbaked, bland cookie coming from such a half-baked individual as Mr. Liederman.
